So Much More Than We Think

This week we focus on the concept of having an “Open Mind”. Today’s MotD reminds us that there’s so much more to life than we think. There’s so much more to our lives than we think. With a closed mind, we just stay stuck right where we are—not believing we or anything about us can change. That’s just so wrong.

People change. Circumstances change. Weather changes. Here’s the thing, if we want things to change for the better, we have to open our minds and hearts to the idea that it’s within our power to make that happen. We may not know how that’s going to happen right now, we just need to believe that it can…that we can.

For me, I get glimpses of how much more there could be to my life. And really, the only thing stopping me is me. I just need to change my mind about the beliefs that I choose to let hold me back. And be open to making what seems to be out of reach, more of a reality.

How about you? Are you open to the idea that there’s so much more to your live than you think? What does that look like?

BTW…Here’s the before…the front and back view of today’s puzzle piece and the pretty ceramic box that holds all my numbers from which I randomly choose each day’s puzzle piece number:

Creating Mandalas 🔆 Awakening Inner Harmony

ABOUT THE 2025 Mandalas of the Day

Throughout the year, I’ll be building one large (48”x48”) Tibetan-styled Mandala one piece at a time…one puzzle piece at a time, that is. The mandala design and the reversed puzzle side were printed on artist-quality watercolor paper. The forward facing puzzle side was printed on a 48”x48” wood panel.

Each day, at random, I’ll be painting in watercolors one of the 365 watercolor puzzle pieces, that by the end of the year will become Archangel Mandala #4. Read more about the Archangel Series. The word/message for each piece will be inspired by Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact”.

Ultimately, the message of this mandala is about how we are all uniquely part of the one.

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits. Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it. As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
