Searching for Unclaimed Treasure

A good friend of mine showed me where to look online to fine unclaimed property that the goverment is holding.  So, I went online and found that I am owed $4.65!  Of course, that is a very small amount (I am still submitting to received it for just the price of a stamp) but at least I can buy a cup of Starbucks when I get the check.  :-)

I kept looking and found $300 for my parents, $50 for my sister and almost $1,000 for one of my brothers. For another brother, I found $.04.....sorry JR!

It dawned on me that this could be a parallel for finding unclaimed treasure on our healthy journey.  So, today during my yoga practice, I took the time to really look inside to see what I could find.  Amazing what you can see when you pause long enough to look.  I found that I am continuing to fall deeper in love with myself, even at the age where I find myself today.  In fact, I think we have to travel to where we are to find ourselves, where we are. 

The journey inside is even richer and more worthwhile than the external journey we are on.  The deeper we travel within, the greater the riches we can find.  I hope you spend time to look inside and really appreciate your fullness, the light you bring to this world, the kindness you share with others, the richness of the depth of your goodness.  Now, fall in love all over again with yourself and share that love with others.

Desire to travel to the inner beauty.  Dedication to appreciate what you find.  Discipline to pause long enough to go within.
