An Affirmaton!

My heart is open to love, life and living. I am a magnet for love, prosperity and abundance, new ideas and people enter my life every day. It is a beautiful world that we live in, and each day I take advantage of every moment to express all the passions within my soul. I was born to manifest the glory of God that lies within me, I am the bright shining light on the hill, my presence brightens the world and my light touches everyone in my realm and reaches beyond the scope of my knowing. I am fortunate indeed that God has blessed me so.
