YOU are...
It might sound like a cheesy mantra: You are a soul that is vibrant and attuned to the wonder all around us. In truth, that is exactly who you are. Which is why you might feel sluggish or worse when you accept a belief in your mind that says otherwise. Think right now about the things you might throw up immediately as an argument against your being a wonder-filled and attuned soul. Is it sleep deprivation? Is it the anger you showed a parent, child, or spouse just recently? Is it your shabby clothing? The chaos of clutter around you? Those things say absolutely nothing about the bright light of happiness in your deepest being that is right now waiting to shake off those illusions and embrace a transformation in your life. You are more than anything you have been or done, whether you perceive this as positive or negative. On the whole, none of your mistakes add up to any cosmic disaster. And yet every act of kindness you demonstrate can never be erased from the ripples of time and space. So you ARE happiness within. And the crust of chaos or pain that clouds this image is just that…a coverup. Take a moment to move, breath, or focus for 15 seconds on even one tiny detail of existence that brings you pleasure. Even if it is as simple as the memory of a warm blanket on a winter’s night. That. That moment. That spark that turns on when you think of this…That’s who you are! It’s not that other emotions don’t happen. It’s that all those other emotions really do have your best interests at heart in helping you redirect towards a life filled with more honesty and joy.
