Words of Inspiration from Kahlil Gibran


One of my all-time favourite inspirational books is The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran. Its poetry moves my heart in so many directions, and speaks truth to my ears. For this month’s affirmations, I’ve decided to share some beautiful phrases from this most timeless of books.

Intuitively pick a number between 1 and 9, and see which inspired quote is choosing you today. As a special treat, I’ve also included a Young Living oil blend to partner with your affirmation:

1. Alone and without his nest shall the Eagle fly across the sun.
Oil Blend: Surrender

2. Your clothes conceal much of your beauty, yet they hide not the unbeautiful….
Would that you could meet the sun and the wind with more of your skin and less of your raiment.
For the breath of life is in the sunlight and the hand of life is in the wind.
Oil Blend: Sacred Mountain

3. Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself.
Love possesses not nor would it be possessed; for love is sufficient unto love.
Oil Blend: Present Time

4. Sleep with a prayer for your beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lifts.
Oil Blend: Gratitude
 
5. You give but little when you give of your possessions.
It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.
Oil Blend: Believe
 

6. Your children are not your children…
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth…
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
Oil Blend: Inner Child

7. Love one another, but make not a bond of love;
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your Souls.
Oil Blend: Freedom

8. Work is love made visible….
When you work you are a flute through whose heart the whispering of the hours turns to music.
Oil Blend: Motivation

9. Your joy is your sorrow unmasked…
The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.
Oil Blend: Joy
