Greetings all! It’s my pleasure to welcome you to Ase Ire! It is my hope that this will be an online oasis for inspiration, interesting information and positive energy. Our theme is “Promoting the Power of Positivity” and I look forward to reinforcing positive power within myself as I write and within you as you read. Be sure to visit the What is Ase Ire? page for more on what Ase Ire is all about!

As I take the first step on this journey into the blogosphere, a few quotes come to mind:

The philosopher Lao Tzu said, “A  journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”

The odù Ifá Eji Ogbe says, “No one can know the beginning and the end of all things.”

Embarking on this journey today, I can’t see the whole “staircase” and I don’t know how it will turn out in the end, but I am taking the first step in faith that this will be a fruitful and successful undertaking. We cannot control how things end, but we can control when and how they begin. Is there a project you’re considering? What are you waiting for to take the first step?

Let me tell you something you already know: the day you were born was a special day! Not just the date, but the day of the week as well. I’m beginning this journey today because it is the first, and 1 is a number of beginnings. I also chose today because I was born on a Tuesday, therefore Tuesday is my power day. Do you know what day of the week you were born? If not, find out here. (Ladies, make note of the moon phase too, we’ll talk about that later). This day is your power day! Make it a point to do important work, particularly spiritual work, on your power day whenever possible and see how things amp up for you!

I thank you for joining me today! I’m looking forward to sharing this journey with each of you!

Peace & Blessings,
‘Funlayo
