Make Believe

I have decided that reality is overrated.  It is the excuse we use to not make changes in our lives.  I can’t buy the house because I can’t afford it, I can’t find a job because the economy is so bad etc.  If we want something to change in our lives it has to be how we are thinking.  If we focus on what we want we will move toward that, if we focus on where we are or what is going wrong that is where we will stay. 

Albert Einstein wrote “Imagination is the preview of life’s coming attractions”. 
So, if we can make believe we can make it happen.

Energy

 
I love when I can feel the energy of something new about to happen.  It’s like the calm before the storm when everything is very still but you can feel the electricity in the air.  Tomorrow is so full of potential and I can’t wait to see what is approaching.

Accept Yourself


I can spot the issue that needs attention from me by what is appearing most in my life at the time.  Right now that is acceptance – of me by others and of others by me.  What I really need to focus on is accepting myself and not worrying about the rest of the world.  If I can look inward and not judge myself perhaps then I can look outward and feel true acceptance.

Own Your Life

There comes a time for each of us when we have to decide what we really want for ourselves, not what others want from us.  I have lived most (almost all) of my life trying to please someone else in order to feel loved and accepted.  Finally, I am beginning to understand that the only way I will be happy is to please myself.

I think Alfalfa from Our Gang/Little Rascals said it best - “I’m sorry Spanky, I have to live my own life”.

Instant Karma


I grew up listening to the Beatles but it wasn’t until recently that I really got the message of John Lennon’s song “Instant Karma”.  That song describes exactly what is happening in my life right now.  The more I study the teachings of Abraham the more I understand that it is only my personal vibration that matters.  Whatever I project is exactly what I will get back – kind of a “reap what you sow” philosophy. 

What I am noticing lately is that it happens very quickly – I barely have a thought or experience and I see some result almost immediately.  This cause and effect is very useful in helping me to see how I can improve my offering so my “Instant Karma” is what I want it to be.

Pain

As much as it hurts, I learn so much about myself when I am going through a difficult time.  The challenge for me is to get past the heartache so that I can begin to see all the possibilities that the current situation is offering and appreciate the desire that springs from the pain.

Self Love


When asked what it is that I love about myself it didn’t take long for me to answer.  It is my capacity for growth and expansion.  I am so grateful to see how my life has evolved over the years and I know that I will never be less than what I have become. 

I possess many wonderful qualities (love, compassion, kindness) but now every aspect of my being has blossomed because I now know what it means to love myself.

Who I Am

 My question used to be – who am I?  Was it the young girl that was too frightened of the world to venture out, or that brave woman who could travel the world on her own without fear?  It has taken all of my 57 years to finally begin to see my true self and to love and appreciate who I am.

Go with the Flow


When I was a girl, my family would go to the mountains and we would float down the river on old tire inner tubes.  Sometimes it was a peaceful easy ride and sometimes it was wild and exciting, but we always let the current carry us.

It never occurred to us to try to go against the stream and yet that is exactly how many of us live our lives.  For me, I am interested in the path of least resistance and will be happy to just go with the flow.

Destination - Joy


It really doesn’t matter how I get there, all I know is that I will always be happy.  Somehow, throughout the wild journey of my life I have come out on the other side and as I look back it amazes me how the twists and turns have become the perfect path.  A road I would never have expected to lead me here but it did and the destination is joy.

Pencil not Ink


I have learned over the years that plans will always change and that is the only true constant.  How I have dealt with those changes has shaped my life into what it is today.  I find that the more willing I am to alter the original scheme the happier I am. 

Now I am learning that it is much more about how I feel than what plan I follow.  There are many ways to arrive at my destination as long as I draw my map in pencil and not ink.

Nothingness


The subject of nothingness has been defined in many different ways throughout history.  My personal interpretation is that it is the state of not thinking or doing anything at all.  To free my mind of all conscious thought so that my spirit can flourish. 

It is only out of nothingness that something true can be created.
