The Appreciation Game

[Paradise-on-Earth]

I love to BASK in this energies... trust, as tiny people. Children of God. Knowing how much they are beloved, how good, and how absolutely safe they are!
Ahhhhmmmmmm....

E: Eager

To appreciate eagerness, let's get into the feeling place of it...

When I feel eager,
it feels exciting!
It feels full of fun anticipation!
It feels bubbly!
It feels like exclamation marks!
It feels light and fun!
It feels like my heart is light
It feels like wanting to jump ahead! To jump forward with gusto!
It feels like wanting to run towards something!
It feels like having a very clear direction.
It feels like having a clear, strong focus.
It feels like wanting.
It feels like life force running through you!
It feels energetic!
It feels dynamic, moving
It feels full of life!

I appreciate eager anticipation.
It's fun to look forward to things
It's fun to feel the eagerness course through your body ~
Fill up your heart ~
Tickle your insides pleasantly

R: Rabbit

I love how soft rabbits are!
They're so so so soft!
It's like stroking the highest quality material ~ so lovely!
I love feeling their cuddly warmth.
It's so aligning to hug another little warm being ^_^

I like how they fit in your arms comfortably - they are just the right size!

I like how they have quite a calm energy to them.
I like how they let you stroke them happily.
I like how they look so cute, especially when they're little
Adorable little soft fur balls
I love feeling my heart fill with love when I cuddle them.
I love how they bring out my own gentleness and softness when I interact with them.
So sweet!

T: Tasty

I so appreciate Elke's appreciations of foods from different countries!

N, for Netherlands!
One of the VERY BEST experiences foodwise in Netherlands is, to visit a Pannekoeken-huis (a restaurant serving Dutch pancakes).
Stamppot - "stamped pot", a mash of potatoes and maybe every imaginable other vegetables, together

It's so fun learning about the existence of dishes I never new existed!
I love the expansion of it
I love the interest in it!
It feels so interesting ~ learning the dishes' names; their ingredients; seeing how they look - I love all the beautiful photos Elke finds and shares which look so enticing and yummy!
And imagining how they could taste and smell too! A fun exercise for the senses with your imagination!
I also enjoy the little tidbits of stories, histories that enrich and give life to these tasty experiences.
I like the inspiration it gives - the sparks of desire it fires off, for things to one day make, or taste,
and the desire to visit these places too!


Today I appreciated the cinnamon almond-milk drink I made myself for the first time. It was unexpectedly delicious! I loved the gentle cinnamonny-ness of it, the gentle sweetness, the cold refreshingness of it. So quenching!

I appreciated all the delicious food I had today.
I appreciated the tasty lettuce that was so fresh, crisp, crunchy and sweet!
I so enjoy a good crisp texture! It's so satisfying!
I so appreciate my mum for making us today's delicious treats!
She takes so much care to make things healthy and nourishing for us - I so appreciate that!
She takes so much care to make things tasty and delicious so we all enjoy everything
She takes so much care to accomodate everyone in the family with their individual tastes and needs - she is so considerate and thoughtful and lovely! I'm so lucky to have her
I so appreciate the time, effort and love she puts into it all

I am appreciating that soon growing season will be starting - probably tomorrow I will start chitting my squash seeds.
I look forward to tasting the new tasty things in store this season.
I look forward to tasting new veggie varieties I've never tasted before.
It feels like eager anticipation!
It feels like curiosity.
It feels like gentle excitement.

I look forward to the smell of baby squash leaves! I love their gentle fuzziness as you rub them when they're just babies, and the beautiful smell they exude! They smell delicious! (don't rub squash leaves when they're older though - they're rough and spikey then )

I look forward to seeing the big tromboncinos grow and tasting their gentle sweetness again.
I look forward to watching them go from graceful little small things with yellow flower skirts to swelling to huge sizes in a matter of days. They are so fun to watch!


I look forward to tasting the delicious sweet gem squashes too - so gentle, so soft, so soothing and comforting - so yummy!


I look forward to seeing the interesting shapes and patterns on the squash varieties I've chosen to grow this year. And of course getting to taste them!


I look forward to comparing them side by side and detecting the subtle differences in their flavours.
A lot of fun tastings are ahead

U: Unusual (Sky Activity!)

I just learned today that last night there was unusual sky activity - seeing the Northern Lights much further south than usual, and I'm hoping to align with catching another display tonight

It seems so magical to see the sky all lit up with greens and purples!


I imagine it feels so special!


I imagine it feels like you're in a fantasy land.


I can imagine looking up, seeing the dancing lights in the sky, and soaking it in; appreciating; feeling full of appreciation for this unusual sight.


I can imagine as I look up at the sky how in that moment I align with patience and pure being.


In anticipation of it, it feels like hopefulness.
It feels like potential for good things.
It feels like going towards seeing an art display!
It feels like a bit of an advnture, getting into the car, driving out to a place away from the city lights, armed with a camera and a dream!
It feels like gentle eager anticipation.

Wouldn't it be nice to catch a beautiful display!

It would be nice!

It would be nice to see different colours,
Different shapes in the sky,
Different patterns of light,
and taking it all in with my beautiful family by my side; sharing in the experience; sharing in the appreciation together.


It sounds like fun

ohh, sooo beautiful! I, too, desire so much to see the northern lights! Wouldn't that be awesome!
Wishing to all of you to get joyfully through this incredible times of very heavy sun-activity, and the following geomagnetic solar storms!
I love the term "cosmically orchestrated light-information for the great Shift"...

Apparently the lights were visible last night in some places in Germany too! I wonder if they'll be visible tonight in Germany also!

"cosmically orchestrated light-information for the great Shift" Ooh I like that!

My son (who is in the moment with us) reports, that they have been in München/Munich, far in the South of Germany, where he has his living. He missed it!
We have the most intense solar-storm since 20 years, which causes the phenomena...
