Is it Okay to Look Back?

Absolutely!  As long as looking back makes you feel better and aids you in imagining what you want to feel right now. 

Here's to Looking!

Remember to Accept

I observed a friend today, being offered a small gift.  She was delighted to receive it.  Her first thought after that feeling of gratitude, was, "I must get a gift for her in return."
I chimed in and suggested she leave it at "Thank you" and continue with simply graciously accepting, rather than immediately seeking to re-pay. 
Accepting with grace.  It's simple.  But not always easy.  Accepting without repaying directly is a stretch that allows us to stay in the flow of giving and receiving with ease.
