What do you want?

What do you want? What do you want for your life? What do you want for today?

One way to begin your day is to ask yourself what you want for today. "What do I want today?" Today, on a rainy, cold winter day in northern california (yes, it does get cold for us northern californians!) I wanted to be sure I had some moments of coziness. So when I got into my car I pushed the button for the seat warmer, and I put the heater up to its highest range. So today I was even cozy in my car! As I write to you now, I'm sitting by the fire, I've covered my feet with warm socks, and my plan is to stay inside for the evening.

Sometimes what we want is very small. We have to discover what small things make us happy. And when we wake in the morning, we can answer the question, "what do I want today?" with some small thing.

Sometimes what we want is large. Sometimes what we want won't be possible today. Asking for what you want is a way of praying - of asking the Universe, of asking God, of asking your Higher Self for what you want. Asking for what you want is a way of setting an intention. Maybe your answer to the question, "What do I want today?" will be the same day after day, for a long, long time.

Warmly,
