Go Get Centered
Our focus this week: “Serenity”.
Today’s MotD: Go Get Centered. Whenever we’re in the midst of drama, we’re encouraged to “go get centered”. (see yesterday’s post for some suggestions) We are of no functional use to ourselves or others if we’re “flying off the handle”. And trying to be rational with anyone who is deep in their drama is a waste of time and energy. Better to walk away to re-center ourselves or wait until the other person allows themselves to get centered.
Today, June 22, 2025, there’s a lot of drama happening in the world right now creating enormous upheaval and knocking us all off our center…if we let it. Unless we’re in a position to physically calm any particular situation, then our best bet is for ALL of us to get centered within ourselves, wherever we are and in whatever capacity we’re able to do so.
On a personal note, years ago my dad was in one of rages with me in a diner parking lot. He kept yelling at me to get in the diner. Had I been near to home, I would have walked away. Instead, being stuck there, I repeatedly told him “I’m not going in until you stop yelling”. I must have said it at least five times before it registered and he started calming down. Sometimes it takes a bit of calm effort to break through the noise of drama.
How about you ? Do you know how to center yourself when caught in one of your dramas ? Do you know how to help others get centered when they are caught up in their dramas ? If you’re able to walk away from it, would you, can you, or will you ?
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:

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.
