Humbly Ask
Our focus this week — Oct 29-Nov 4: “Humility”
Today’s MotD: Humbly Ask. We are encouraged to humbly ask for whatever it is we’re wanting— be it from our loved ones, friends, strangers, and even our Higher Power. Ever notice how when we “demand” what we want, it’s often met with some form of negative reaction ? On the flip side, ever notice when we humbly ask for what we want, it’s often met with a positive reaction, and maybe they even go above and beyond the call ? It reminds me of that adage about honey vs vinegar.
By humbly asking for what we want, we’re acknowledging our humanness, our vulnerability, and our need for assistance (that we’re not able to do it alone) while also acknowledging, respecting, and honoring the person or Higher Power of which we’re asking for said assistance.
Essentially the process of “humbly asking” is a win-win for all participants. So…more of that please.
How about you ? I humbly ask…what’s your approach for asking for what you need/want ? Do you come from a place of demanding it ? Or do you come from a place of grace and humbleness ? Which one do you think serves us better ?
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.
