(...)a personal message to you from Stacey Robyn, founder of Go Gratitude and author of "42 days of knew views on Gratitude":

(...)A power now lies within you, waiting for your recognition, your call, your direct attention to spring to life and deliver whatever your pure heart desires.

Synchronistically . . .

You've just embarked on a universally unique adventure, experimenting with intentionally using the Master Key of Gratitude to unleash this source force within, giving life to your dreams, power to your passions, and prosperity to your pursuits!

(...)This Spring, I took a 42 day retreat to clear my head, inspire my soul, and clarify my plans for pursuing a passionate life.

My retreat was a spur of the moment decision, so I sent a quick note to friends and family letting them know my plans for the next few weeks and that something "big! Big! BIG!" was coming. I remember feeling excited, wondering what 'big! Big! BIG!' really meant.

During these 6 weeks I daily dedicated time to honor my creative-ness, indulging in all sorts of artistic outlets such as drawing, painting, cloud gazing, and a whole lot of doodling.

Doodling? Well, yes. It's a favorite past time of mine. By releasing any expected outcome, I simply allow my creativity to freely flow . . . just me, the pen, and all possibility!

One evening, while musing on my doodles, I noted that many commonly recognized symbols were peeking through my orderly disorder.

And then, as if arranged by fate, I asked my Sweetheart, "What is the symbol for Gratitude?"

Think about it.

There's a symbol for the sun, the moon, love, peace . . . even a simple "swoosh" is recognizable world-wide.

There must be a symbol for Gratitude!

. . . and Voila! I glanced down to witness this symbol of Gratitude being created by my very own hand.

Immediately, I glimpsed a little 'g' in a circle. 'Gratitude begins with a G', I thought. Perfect! (I still get chills thinking about it! Wow!)

Well, let me tell you . . . between then and now I have witnessed a myriad of messages and confirmations revealed by this simple symbol, that prove beyond a doubt, Gratitude is everywhere. (these will be revealed in the "Knew Views on Gratitude" series . . . and I'm sure many, many more will emerge as creative minds converge to explore, expand and experiment with Gratitude.)

Now I must confess . . .

I'd been drawing this symbol for weeks. I had it "on the brain" you might say. It was fun to draw, all whirly-swirly and a challenge to get it JUST RIGHT. I suppose this fascination allowed me to easily recognize it when I finally thought to ask.

Can you say Divine providence? Serendipity? Magic? Perhaps all three!!!

Now, you might ask, "Why Gratitude? Where did this inquiry spring from?" It may seem random and yet, there is a beginning to all things.

Dr. Masaru Emoto was my Gratitude Muse.

You may be familiar with Emotos' work with water crystals, and the effect thoughts and words have on their appearance.

While relishing his awe-inspiring book, "The Hidden Messages in Water," I came upon an idea that will forever change my life, and perhaps yours, as well.

Emoto believes that Gratitude is a gift of Love . . . it is what Love returns to the world, as a symbol of appreciation for life, for being, for NOW. Emoto also feels that the "Love and Gratitude" water crystal is the most beautiful of all, for it exemplifies our highest nature, as Divine Creators.

Day 1 ~ Master Key

MASTER KEY

Symbols are keys to universal doors
passing through the conscious to the super-conscious
by embodying patterns of nature.

Gratitude is the Master Key opening passage for
Opportunity , Abundance, and Celebration.

now witness this, as it is written in Gratitude:

egg = gestation = opportunity
spiral = growth = abundance
circle = completion = celebration


***


Go Gratitude!


***

imagine being given a master key, yours for all eternity,
to open all doors of possibility. rejoice, for it is so!


***

"I just wanted to say something on symbols. They are
keys to a universal language that unlock doors.
Don't worry if you do not know how to use...the symbol.

The knowledge will come when you are ready for it .

Your guides will lead you to it.

I suggest taking a symbol, and meditating with it this week.

There is no wrong way to use it ." Love, Carol Tessier

***

Go Gratitude!

***

be careful ~

you may find yourself doodling Gratitude everywhere musing
"there's just something about this symbol that draws me in..."

***

" Doodling allows the unconscious to render in symbolic expression. Symbols have universal as well as personal meaning. When you are stuck for an answer to a problem or looking for creative innovation, the technique of doodling will unleash the hidden symbolic powers of the unconscious mind.

... Some people are prolific doodlers when they are talking on the telephone, sitting at a meeting, attending a lecture or sitting in any passive environment. This doodling can reveal important and profound information about how the person was feeling at the time, or, according to Jung, latent emotional conflicts or unexpressed feelings. In truth, no one can interpret our doodling except ourselves. Though certain symbols appear to have universal applications in the deep collective unconscious, how we experience these symbolic expressions in our own life is unique to each of us.

Your subconscious mind is attempting to contact you all the time. It is usually blocked by habitual conscious thought patterns or emotions. It can also be drowned out by the mundane mental trivia that we repeatedly hash over. Learn to allow its conscious expression, preferably every day. "

Interview with Masaru Emoto on Gratitude:

REIKO: Have you come across a particular word or phrase in your research that you have found to be most helpful in cleaning up the natural waters of the world?

DR. EMOTO: Yes. There is a special combination that seems to be perfect for this, which is love plus the combination of thanks and appreciation reflected in the English word gratitude. Just one of these is not enough. Love needs to be based in gratitude, and gratitude needs to be based in love. These two words together create the most important vibration. And it is even more important that we understand the value of these words.

consciously directing attentions to Gratitude
during transition from Waking reality to Dream space

will create a bridge allowing intentional exploration,

Divine communion,
and passage to enlightening adventures.

here is how:

1. tonight, as you lie to rest, focus on Gratitude.

2. imagine this symbol over your heart.

3. with each peaceful beat calming waters within,

feel a drift into sleep,

flowing knowing going is NOW -

resting on a ring of Gratitude,

leisurely floating Rivers of Abundance.

rest. soak. splash.

explore shores for treasures galore.

prepare to wake in Gratitude.

***

Go Gratitude!

***

to activate Will during sleep excursions,

summon a symbol of Gratitude.

You will immediately connect with choice, awareness, and power!

plus - flying remains an exhilarating option.

***

" Lucid dreams are also symbolic--yet in quite a different way,

...Their symbolism takes the form of beautiful landscapes

--different luminous phenomena, sunlight, clouds, and especially a deep blue sky.

In a perfect instance of the lucid dream I float through immensely wide landscapes,

with a clear blue, sunny sky, and a feeling of deep bliss and Gratitude,

which I feel impelled to express by eloquent words of thankfulness and piety.

Sometimes these words seem to me a little rhetorical,

but I cannot help it, as it is very difficult in dreams to control emotional impulses ...

Sometimes I conceive of what appears as asymbol, warning, consoling, approving.

Flying or floating may be observed in all forms of dreams,

except perhaps the class of general dream sensations;

yet it is generally an indication that lucid dreams are coming. "

- excerpt, A Study of Dreams by Frederik Van Eeden

As surely as Gratitude returns to Self,
intentioned happynings manifest quickly.

watch for unexpected, serendipitous sequences of events to

wake, roll and buoy current excursions.

in other words:

imagine clearly. love dearly. be Gratitude.

let everything else roll bye.

BE A WAKE IN GRATITUDE

***

Go Gratitude!

***

by waking in Gratitude our water bodies will peacefully

shift to NOW realities ~ a circular "see" of possibilities ~

being quickened past light speed, happyning ever so surely.

all is (s)well = waking gratitude

***

" Consider This: Revise the words, "Thank you," in your internal

dictionary. Call upon these words to establish deep awareness of how

your spirit touches others and how the good intentions of others

stream energy into your experience. Wake up every time you

say, "Thank you." Say, "Thank you," often.

Thanking Yourself

Here's a less used phrase. Saying, "I thank me," to yourself

means, "I thank myself." Although you may not be in the habit of

acknowledging your own efforts with Gratitude, it strengthens your

energetic field when you do. "
