Image creates desire. You WILL what you imagine.

~ J.G. Gallimore

(the following is an excerpt from my blog)

Imagine a life full of LIFE!
How GRAND a thought!

Since I am moving forward with my life
(I sure hope we all are),
I've come to a crossroad that I have encountered many times before

this time, the shading of the trees seem to be a little different.
A tint of "Joy" is on the bark of the trees.
The grass too looks to be "happier" (if grass can be happy).
I can't put my finger on it really....it just looks different this time.
The pavement and dirt seem cleaner.
The direction I must go seems to be bright and well lit.
With that the ditches on either side of the road seem a little deeper as well.
Is that to mean if I wander off the path, doom awaits me?
I certainly hope not......

The cross roads I speak of are my health and my habits.
I must take responsibility for my actions or most certainly peril awaits me.

*****
Monday, I begin again a lifestyle change to better my health.
It is a never ending adventure but one of great reward if I remain persistent!

One of the first steps is to "Imagine" a life of great health and energy.
Then, make it so!

Sounds easy and actually it is....taking one moment at a time.
Simple choices, moment to moment.
Doing your best to choose correctly each time until you have the life you desire.

If I am to realize my dreams and goals of hiking the great long trails of our country, I must first be in good physical shape to endure the pitfalls, struggles and elevations of those trails....while carrying everything I need to survive in the wilderness on my back.
To some, that sounds like too much work and for what you might ask?
To experience the gentle flap of a butterflies wings, hundreds at a time in an undisturbed field.
To see vistas and horizons few can visualize or capture.
To breathe in air so clean it is hard to imagine how poisoned we've become by breathing the polluted air in our own homes.

Image creates desire.

What do you desire?
It is hard work to imagine your desires into your life.
Try it sometime.....5 minutes a day of undisturbed, quiet envisioning.
Staying focused on your desire.....If you are like most, within 30 seconds you will be thinking about your home, or work, or family chores or the pain between your toes.
Your 5 minute timer will go off and your thought might be 4 continents away from your desire.

5 minutes can seem like a lifetime in this multiple streaming, stimulating world of ours.
But I assure you, if you can master 5 undisturbed minutes a day of your life, envisioning how you desire your life to be, it will happen faster than you can blink.

I begin again today too.....doing my best to "Make it so"!

I trust you will venture along as well.

May you "Prosper Always" in everything you do today and everyday!
