Today's word is one.Who is the one that is central in your life? in your thoughts?
Do you live for you? Or is your life based on those you love?
I know it is often a real struggle for me because, frankly, I'm self-centered. I don't mean I'm selfish, I'm just often wrapped up in my own world. What I must do that day and what I want to accomplish are often in the forefront of my thoughts. I have to be reminded often, "It's not about me."
Instead, I want my thoughts to be on the One whom I adore. The One who gave everything to me. I also want to be thinking of my loved ones and those I come in contact every day. How can I serve them? How can I encourage?
It's a paradox, but the more love you give away, the more comes back to you. The more you give your life, the more life you receive. Abundantly!

I too am self centered (aren't we all, LOL). I wrote this a while back and posted it on my other blog, A Bench's Notebook,

I want to really learn to "play" to the audience of One and have it all be about him; I continue to be a work in progress.
