InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

July 25, 2024


The focus for today is:

I choose to make the love within me
be greater than the hurt within me.

Today's inspiration was written by Lisa Tahir:

As human beings we tend to favor the status quo, not varying too far out of our predictable range and routine of experiences (our habitual orbiting patterns), lest we experience discomfort, anxiety, fear, uncertainty, or even panic.

It is at this decision-making crossroads that we are free to choose what to do. Do we uncomfortably expand, being willing to go through the natural anxiety and fear, or do we contract into what is known? It is your choice to say yes or no to yourself, to your healing, to your happiness, and to the manifestation of your goals and your dreams.

I came to a crossroad and decided that I wanted the love within me to be greater than the hurt within me. I decided to permit myself to step fully into my power and inner beauty. You too must give yourself permission to enable what you really want.

This is Marie T. Russell, co-publisher of InnerSelf.com, wishing you a day of choosing Love over hurt (today and every day)

Comment from Marie:
Choices, choices, choices. It always come down to that. What do we choose? Love or hurt. Peace or anger. Acceptance or resentment. Action or apathy. The choices are always ours, and the best choice is the one that frees not only ourselves, but others as well.

Our focus for today: I choose to make the love within me be greater than the hurt within me.
