The focus for today is: I search for the love present in all circumstances.
"As turbulence appears in my life, I search for the love present in all circumstances. From this perspective, I view the way of positive resolution."
The above quote from "The Goddess of Water" card (in the Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards), reminds us that there are always two ways to look at any challenges that are transpiring in our life and in the world around us. We can see it as a "horror show", or we can see it as an educational drama -- a story which presents challenges as well as life lessons and rewards.
So, let's remind ourselves to look for the love present in any situation. Whether it is a joyful event or not, love is always the underlying building block and message. Sometimes it is just harder to detect the pony hidden behind the pile of manure... but it doesn't mean it isn't there. Keep looking for the gift of love... and remember that you may be that gift yourself.

Today's Daily Inspiration was inspired by the "The Goddess of Water" card from:
The Lakota Sweat Lodge Cards: Spiritual Teachings of the Sioux
by Chief Archie Fire Lame Deer and Helene Sarkis.
This book and beautifully illustrated deck draw on the ancient Lakota ritual of healing and purification known as the sacred Inipi, or sweat lodge ceremony, which has existed in the Lakota culture for thousands of years.
The cards and accompanying book comprise a self-contained and highly original system that will help you harness creative energies to deal with issues that are of concern in your life. Used for self-discovery rather than divination, the cards gently guide you toward inner growth and self-knowledge in the time-honored tradition of the Lakota people.
