"Living In the Middle"
"Living in the Middle"

Living in the Middle looks back, considers this moment, and reflects on the hopeful journey ahead.
Making Gratitude Contagious, infecting as many hearts as possible, is always the Intent

What Race are Your Thoughts Running?!
What Race Are Your Thoughts Running?!
Our thoughts can often determine the emotions that will sit in the driver's seat for the day before us.
That alone should allow us to be aware, to consider the Thoughts that we embrace or choose to let go of.
Thank you for Heart Sharing this Journey.
Hugs,
Yvette "Donyale"
From the Village of "Helping Build Bridges Across"
Making Gratitude Contagious is always the Intent

We can learn from a lesson from any story "A Boy Named Jack"
A Fable Story..."A Boy Named Jack"
What asset can you pull from this fable?!
From the Journey,
I'm traveling, I'm living on what brings my Heart the Greatest Fulfillment
Living Daily on what my life will end on.
This Heart has measured the cost of the opportunity of a New Day Gifted.
That
Dear Heart that is True Freedom.
Hugs,
Yvette "Donyale"
From the Village of "Helping Build Bridges Across"
"Making Gratitude Contagious" is always the Intent

Trusting God is a 50/50 Proposition?!
Trusting God in difficult, disappointing times hinders the walk forward, continuing to Trust God?!
This Heart doesn't share answers, sharing a perspective from the Journey Traveled to the present day with a Focus on the Hopeful Road Forward. What does that look like in painful places, when the Why is questioned...
Whatever the discussion;
The Work remains the same... #MakingGratitudeContagious is always the Intent
Hugs,
Donyale

The Intent, "Not Taking Time for Granted"
The Intent, "Not Taking Time for Granted"
This Heart Share is not drifting, not sleepwalking through time.
No One Promised Us that Tomorrow will Look the Same as Today. What does that mean to the Heart who is reading, who is listening to this?!
From a Heart that knows Firsthand...Time is a Priceless Commodity.
Hugs,
Donyale

When Life Kicks down your door...Where is Your Faith Now?!
When Life Kicks down your door...Where is Your Faith Now?!
Life's journey is like a book
This Heart Share is for the Faith-Filled Heart stuck in "Why?"
And
For the Heart who is just Fed Up and Disappointed
You Will Not Find Answers
This Heart Shares a Perspective of the Moment that asked...Where is Your Faith Now?!
My heart shares allow "your heart" to consider
Hugs,
Donyale
From Village "Helping Build Bridges Across"
The focus in our village is "Making Gratitude Contagious"
"Infecting as Many Hearts as Possible"

What is on the Next Page?!
Life's Journey for this Heart is one best explained in "metaphors"
For this share...
Taking the Reigns, like riding a horse, choosing to embrace "this day"
Allowing Tomorrow to take care of itself, today is the gift provided by God
Today,
I will rejoice, embrace and make the most of it.
Hugs,
Yvette "Donyale"

When the Road Changes
When the Road Changes...
Living with awareness, and focusing on what heart matters, puts us in the driver's seat.
We are not so easily distracted by our emotions, up one moment, down another, we have emotions, "for some" we just don't move on reacting from them. An exercise, never mastered, but empowering when your reflex is to Take a Pause before reacting.

Making Gratitude Contagious is always the Intent

Gratitude is NOT... "either or"
Gratitude is NOT... "either-or"
This share was lodged within and one message meant it had to be released/shared.
Thoughts centered on the word "Gratitude" is not Magic.
Gratitude is not an affirmation or just positive thoughts...
Allow this Heart to Remind "you"
Not sharing answers, sharing a perspective
From the road traveled to this day
For this Heart, it is an Exercise "daily", from a Heart that knows "Gratitude Robs Regret"
When some Hearts share a...
Word
Phrase
Theme
It is not with the intention of "one size fits all"
For this Heart,
it is a "heart buffet" to allow your heart to sample, consider
From a Heart who is not guessing
Sharing from one who knows "firsthand"
Gratitude allows you to Rob Regret
It is not a "pass" from what life offers...Grief, Tears, Challenging Moments
But
It will allow in the process to not be left with Regret
For the Hearts...
Who is suffering, the next step is to get the Help your heart needs
Don't live with what you can't change....do the work to live releasing those things
The work with help, if needed.
Gratitude is NOT an "Either Or"
Thank you for listening
Thank you for sharing this "heart journey"
Hugs,
Donyale

How We Walk With...
Inspirational Minutes with Donyale
Episode: 1 How we Walk With...
YouTube: https://youtu.be/WS8V7ZGHTpM
From a Heart that Knows when you exercise in an area, it becomes a reflex and it will show up in those moments most needed and many times in unexpected places and times. We don’t think about a reflex, it is a reaction from exercising.
How we begin and close out our day is a mindset, it is taking the “reigns” over your thoughts and “choosing”, which is a big word, “choosing” the direction of where our thoughts will travel
No One Said Easy but now that we know that we don’t spend time having a conversation on what is not possible, our thoughts are dedicated to what is… Our thoughts are engaged daily “an exercise” in Being Grateful and Deciding what we will allow to reside within.

Life is not a movie...or is it?!
Life is not a movie...or is it?!
This podcast was inspired by a recent post, in the Social Media Village of Helping Build Bridges Across, the words on the post along with an image was as follows;
Life is like a Camera...
Just focus on what's important
Capture the good times
Develop from the negatives
and if things don't turn out
~ Take another shot
One of the H.B.B.A. family posted a reply...
“This is not a movie you can’t keep killing things in your mind”
The door is always open at H.B.B.A. "Helping Build Bridges Across" and conversation is always welcome including to agree to disagree.
The statement inspired the exploration of those words
Life is not a movie...or is it?!
Thank you for listening
Thank you for sharing, wearing and surround your life with Gratitude

"Making Gratitude Contagious" is always the intent.

"Don't Get Stuck"
"Don't Get Stuck"
"No One Said Easy" but now that we know that we live offensively, not defensively, we drive.
Podcast, "Journey HBBA" is about sharing not what is mastered but what is exercised until it becomes a reflex.
Life is a Priceless Gift and we have been given a garden to tend. With a garden, there are flowers and there are weeds but the Harvest can be wonderful when you choose to do the work! ~ HS
Continuing to Plow...Always a Choice..."Don't Get Stuck"

You already know...#MakingGratitudeContagious is always the Intent

"No One Said Easy"
"No One Said Easy"
When not if, life challenges you when distractions come to visit or words that offend you or actions that irritate you.
No One Said Easy
It is essential to Know Your Why, it is what girds you, allows you to remain disciplined in your reactions.
"No One Said Easy" is not an answer, it's a perspective, to exercise from a Place that sets the groundwork, that removes
being taken by surprise or being overwhelmed when the unexpected nuisances show up.
Thank you for being here, Thank you for Listening, for Sharing and Wearing "Making Gratitude Contagious" which is always the intent.

September 7th ~ Turning the World Upside Down with an Infectious Disease called "Gratitude"
September 7th, Project Starts Now
Two weeks of Intensifying, Why this Work? Sharing something every single day for two weeks, until and including the day it arrives September 7th.
It is imperative to me that September 7th is not just about the Craigslist Predator, the 17 year murderer who shot my Husband in the Back with a Military Assault Rifle, it is not just about the injustice of the System that allowed this Predator to be on the street with charges pending for other crimes, that allowance provided him with an opportunity for attempted murder two days prior to my husband and then including the day that included my husband, not to mention the damage that he may have done that is unknown.
This is No Longer about me, it is about Me, it is about My Why, it is About How to Punch Back to the Pain that Knocked Me Down, Kicked Down my Door and changed my Life in an Instant. Not Why Me? Because My Truth is that it is Me, my Heart is Tattooed forever but my Eagle Wings are Healed and the Now the Next Chapter, Page One has begun.
September 7th Turning the World Upside Down with the infectious disease called Gratitude
Sept 7th project starts now. It's not just about me any longer, it's about Making Pain Pay Dividends.
My sons will know that Flowers can grow out of Ashes. My Why includes, "Anyone" who is in a Dark Room, or in a Painful Place, You will know that you are Not Alone.
Eagle Hugs...New Chapter, Page One

This podcast; I”m asking Todd’s sons, my sons; Why an eagle? What does an eagle represent to you in your life, regarding your Dad or just your life, whatever is comfortable in this moment to share.
I will share they are Teenagers, they are boys and this is totally Mom’s project, but I told them both Thank you for being considerate enough to simply share a few words of whatever “THEY WANTED TO SAY” not a production or a lesson, a simple share of what words they had to give.

How can you "Embrace" a Moment?
How can we Embrace a Moment? Why should we. . . Distractions surround us designed to steal our Focus. We have the Have to and the Want to and we have to remain on alert to Regret. How can we Embrace a Moment?

Is the Grass Greener?
Is the Grass Greener?
Is the Grass Greener, of the Yard that you have been watching?!
Please know, I'm not providing an answer, I"m simply sharing a Perspective.
You're invited for us to consider this together.
Thank you for traveling this unfamiliar path with me.
Please know. . . You're always welcomed here!

What is the intent?
When someone speaks into your life...
Invited or not, have you considered; What is the intent?
Consider, I speak and I have a Perspective, I have an intent?!
My ask is that together, "We Pause, We take a Moment, We Consider"
What is the Intent?
Chapter 2; Podcast Page 1
#MakingGratitudeContagious is always the intent ❤

So What Happened?
So What Happened? is really the question, we should all ask ourselves every single day?
Tick Tock
Tick Tock
is the sound of a Clock
That continues moving
Whether we Intentionally are Involved
In Life's Journey or Not ~ HS

We all have “One Thing” in common

Stop Holding On Tightly

Planting Flowers, Pulling Weeds
Planting Flowers, Pulling Weeds
In the pain, you sometimes find the beauty. Maybe it’s because, pain, loss, challenges in our lives or the lives of our loved ones, dear friends, it allows us to see, to be reminded that there is so much more to see, to do, there is a beauty to embrace not just on the planned vacations or special days. There is beauty every single day that we can participate in by what we do or by what we say. We can observe the beauty that surrounds us in the smallest way.

Choose Peace

The Pain Behind...The Story Behind A...

Why? Why the intent of?
Many reasons but sharing the one that I feel led to now.
There is a reason, there is a thing, there is a thief and my intent is to expose his name. . .and to let you know WHY?!

I Just Don't Want To. . .

To Be Angry or Take Action that is the question every single day?!

You Only Get One

How You Start Doesn’t Mean...

Keep Your Focus; Take a Pause ❤️

Why An Eagle?

Seasons
Routine is and can be a Thief.
What if we Embrace Change if we Embrace Seasons? What if?!

Be Alert

Victim is Not My Name, My Name is Donyale
Is not shared to bring sadness
It is a reminder to Celebrate Today, to Appreciate what surrounds your life now.
There is so much that is priceless, sometimes it takes a Pause, A Moment to just Appreciate that.

My truth is, It's not just about me, it's about how I can take what happened to me and Make an Impact. To let someone, somewhere know "You are Not Alone" #HelpingBuildBridgesAcross from our generation to the next.
