karma lotus flower thoughts

My sweet husband is, in general, a very, very thoughtful man. This is one of the many reasons I love him. He is also a very thoughtful gift giver. This year he gave me the beautiful and meaningful karma lotus bracelet in the photo from http://www.dogeared.com/. He also got me a necklace from http://www.satyajewelry.com/ that has a black cord and a small garnet, small silver om symbol, and small silver lotus flower hanging from it. Lastly, he bought me the book Meditations from the Mat--the book is made up of 365 short meditations, offering ways to integrate the mindfulness yoga teaches into everyday life. I plan to read one each morning of 2009 to get my day started. Three very thoughtful and perfect gifts. I am blessed!

Here is the karma lotus bracelet saying at the bottom of the photo above--something I will keep in mind when wearing it!:

"the lotus emerges from murky chaos, through purifying water, and up into the light of the sun, as you make your way toward brilliance, remember to keep your circle positive and loving"

I am impressed that he knew about satya's jewelry collection. He is a keeper!

Not that I am complaining about my gifts but I received a new dishwasher. : ) It isn't quite the same thing as a lotus bracelet. LOL

Yes...he has bought me a few different necklaces from Satya, and I think he still gets e-mails from them about new jewelry pieces! The e-mails are a nice reminder to him, and he knows I love all their jewelry.

You're definitely right: a dishwasher isn't quite the same; however, I will say that having a dishwasher is definitely something I'm very, very grateful for in my life! Hand-washing dishes is one of my least-favorite things to do!

Namaste'
