Welcome to Tuesdays with Chel.
Each week Chel Micheline of gingerblue dot com will offer her perspectives on our Bliss Habits. Please enjoy the wisdom and clarity she offers.

In honor of the “retirement” of the original 13 Bliss Habits, I decided I would compile 13 quotes related to each of original habits.
JOY:
“Simply be who you are, do what you do best, be where you are called by joy, and let life work its magic on your behalf.” -Alan Cohen
ORDER:
“We don’t have a lot of control in life, but we really do have control over the objects in our homes. So when the world is spinning too fast and you feel completely crazed, just get the things around you settled.” – Peri Wolfman
CREATIVITY:
“Your entire life is a work of art. And as is true of all masterpieces, everything has meaning and is important, which includes your me-time, shopping, day dreaming, dessert selections, idle chats, and walkabouts.” – Mike Dooley
PASSION:
“It takes practice to hear your true desires. Your passion will often come as a whisper or serendipitous event that reminds you of what’s important and what makes you happy.” – Eckhart Tolle
WHIMSY:
“Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. What if they are a little coarse, and you may get your coat soiled or torn? What if you do fail, and get fairly rolled in the dirt once or twice. Up again, you shall never be so afraid of a tumble.”- Ralph Waldo Emerson
SERENITY:
“If you want to experience peace, love and stillness, you must define it for yourself on a daily basis.” – Robin Lee
INQUIRY:
“Your mind will answer most questions if you learn to relax and wait for the answer.” – William S. Burroughs
COMMUNITY:
“When you are in alignment with who you really are, you cannot help but uplift those with whom you come into contact.” – Esther Hicks
ROMANCE:
“Wouldn’t it be powerful if you fell in love with yourself so deeply that you would do just about anything if you knew it would make you happy? This is precisely how much life loves you and wants you to nurture yourself. The deeper you love yourself, the more the universe will affirm your worth. They you can enjoy a lifelong love affair that brings you the richest fulfillment from inside out.” – Alan Cohen
GRATITUDE:
“Cherish your visions. Cherish your ideals. Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all heavenly environment; of these, if you but remain true to them, your world will at last be built.”- James Allen
MOXIE:
“We never really know if we’re doing The Right Thing or not. We can only make decisions and just go from there.” – Meg Toledo
HUMILITY:
“You get your power back by choosing to bring your internal story – the one that’s been whispering to you all of your life – to the world. By translating wishes into choices and, with courage and humility, stepping onto the stage of your own life. In this way, you change the story of your life – and the world.”- Amy Oscar
SURPRISE:
“Whether we name divine presence synchronicity, serendipity, or graced moment matters little. What matters is the reality that our hearts have been understood. Nothing is as real as a healthy dose of magic which restores our spirits.” -Nancy Long
