Life Will Go On
I do not even know where to begin with this entry. we are all in the same place in life right now. the world has stopped and we are scared.
some of us can find a silver lining in all of this madness. some of us are terrified to wake up to a cough or a fever. there is anxiety to come in contact with people…. the same people you look forward to see every day now cause a trigger of fear that they may be carrying death.
this is a sample of what i have been told by people close to me and strangers. it is a re-occurring theme. how are we suppose to see a positive in this life that is before us?
the bottom line we do not have control over what is happening around our environment and the leaders that control the laws and rules of what we live by. all we can do is control the quality of life we create for ourselves. we can allow a thought to overcome our conscious or develop a beautiful outlook of gratitude for what is in our life.
if you are reading this far you might understand what i am talking about. we are what we focus on. we are the creation of our fears or our faith. i truly believe that. i have gone back to the movie in my mind replaying my life and dissecting every positive and negative experience i have had. i know what thoughts and beliefs caused everything. i know for sure i am the cause of my experience in this life.
right now the world has stopped for most of us. we have time for reflection and awareness. what will we find out about ourselves? i wonder. every day i wake up to a quiet outside. i hear no cars, trains, planes and voices. even the dogs are quiet. the birds are louder, the breeze is clear. i can hear the neighbor fart next door. my perception of life right now is that everything needed to slow down.
the world was distracted and we took advantage and for granted everything in life. it was taken away in a matter of weeks. life stopped, loved ones died, work was taken away, our freedoms are limited to protect one another. our circle has been reduced to where we lay down our head to sleep.
wake up. this is our opportunity to wake up. live, laugh and love. take this time to see the world with eyes of gratitude. change your future. change your perception of your world. listen to your intuition and heart. there are less distractions. quit your bitching and moaning. life is different now. this is an opportunity for most of us to re-start and re-set.
life will go on.
The Path to Happiness
The Path to Happiness
Everyone wakes up the same, you open your eyes and what you see is what you get. Our perceptions is where we differ. We see the world that we decide to see from the time we wake up. There are of course some drastic differences in the human conditon where experiences are quite different. Let us address the folks that have a physical control of their life. The people that have the freedom to read this post.
If you wake up and open your eyes complaining from the get go about where you are in life then you shouldnt be complaining at the end of the day when your day is over about how screwed up your life is. You woke up pissed off, bitching and moaning from the time you woke up. You have no right to complain.
We wake up and we have another chance from yesterdays failure or challenge. We have the opportunity to make our life better and right our wrongs. Whether you believe this is a truth or not, it is a fact that we wake the same. We open our eyes and have a choice to change the perception as simple as a decision.
We all have a path to take in life towards our final destination. Death. We will all arrive there eventually. What is the legacy you will leave behind. The decision you make about your perception in life will dictate how that legacy will look like. Everyday we have challenges that make us stronger or weaker depending on the perception we take about it.
What does that path look like for you? Are you wasting time everyday waking up to the same belief system that does not serve you? Are you stuck in a mindset full of daily negative rituals teaching you about life as a sad truth or are you waking up looking forwards towards the beautiful experiences that help you learn and thrive?
How to be Happy – Admit being an Asshole
I do not know where to begin. Sometimes I feel that I cannot go in public with out running into an asshole. If I am thinking this way am I asking for it? Maybe but the fact is that they are walkways out there it is how we approach the situation.
I didn’t do so well recently. If I am to be a teacher of Happiness how do I go against what I teach and live? We are not perfect and at times we will be weak and fall prey to these instigators. There is always someone opposite of you and there will be a clash or a contradiction.
Handling this contradiction or opposite energy can be approached many ways. If you know you are in the opposite direction to the positive then you need to maintain the course. Do not look back. Be strong. Use your power. Love. Be calm and composed. Funny as I type this I have to admit I did the opposite. I instigated someone who disagrees with me and then I proceeded to look for an altercation. For Christ sake I am 51 behaving irrationally. I regressed to the mindset that we see reported on the new every night.
My ego was insulted and I had to stand my ground. This is a bullshit fear. A fear of being embarrassed? A fear of being humiliated or humbled? Would that have been so bad?
In my admission I see a light and a flickering hope. One I learned a lesson in forgiveness and humility and the gentleman learned bullying and intimidation is not appropriate. I say this without justification just an observation.
