Your weekly uplifting message from Authentic Matters
 
"Most women I know have only one conscious priority: making it through the day. This is a result of being torn in a thousand different directions in any one twenty-four hour period for decades.

The more our lives and attention spans are segmented by our children, our careers, our homes, our marriages and our needs for personal development, the more we need to ... carve out a small portion of each day for ourselves as personal priority.

Many of us assume that we can continue to get along just by "winging it", indefinitely.
We can't.  We need an antidote for the hurried and harried lives that threaten to tear us apart. Quiet time alone, contemplation, prayer, music, a centering line of throught" are needed every day to nourish our souls.
 
"What matters is that one be for a time inwardly attentive.

Today, make getting in touch with the Silence within yourself your first priority. As you do, you will be amazed at how everything else seems to find it's own order.
