Gratitude Towards Others’ Success
Our focus this week — Sep 3–9: “Goodwill”
Today’s MotD: Gratitude Towards Others’ Success. We are encouraged to express gratitude for other people’s successes…especially towards those we may be triggered by or judge to be unworthy of success. Essentially this is a continuation of the last two posts.
Expressing gratitude for others’ successes has nothing to do with anyone else (deserving or otherwise) and everything to do with us…how we respond to it and how it affects our well-being-ness.
I posted this yesterday and it warrants being posted again as a gentle reminder:
Every time we wish someone ill, we dim our own light.
Every time we send someone goodwill, we reclaim it.
Another aspect of expressing gratitude for someone else’s success is that they are showing us what’s possible. They are showing us what can be done. It’s a lovely reminder and inspiration that if they can do it, then it’s within the realm of possibility for us to do it (or some variation of it) as well. If anything, it has the potential to give us hope about what’s possible for us…if we allow ourselves to be open to it.
How about you ? Are you able to express gratitude for other people’s successes ? Do you get triggered by someone else’s success that you deem not worthy of it ? Are you open to reclaiming your own Light and expressing gratitude anyway ?
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:
Peace & Blessings,

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.
