Somehow, whether through studying passion, or just
organically progressing through my journey, I have managed to flip a switch. It
is now so much easier for me to focus on the positive things, change the things
I CAN and let go of the things that I cannot.
Little things that would have normally set me off have been
diminished. I see life’s beauty EVERYWHERE. I see people yearning for the
future, and I just choose right now. I see posts about ugh, another Monday. And
I think YES another Monday, another fresh week, another fresh start. It took a
bit of coercing my mind to adjust to this new way of doing things, don’t get me
wrong, but life has become SO MUCH SWEETER since choosing to see the glass
overflowing. I swear, when you choose to start emitting positive, you become a magnet for the good life.
And you’re right, my life is relatively carefree. I do not
have kids, I have no horrible event to deal with in my life, knock on ALL the
wood. But shitty things do go on. My older half-sister is an ongoing heroin addict who
has lost her home and is very close to losing her life. My mom was just
diagnosed pre-diabetic and the stress she puts on herself from my sister doesn’t
bode well for her own health. Things have broken in my house, bills have been
larger than expected, money gets tight. But the sun shines, there are forests
to explore, there are rainbows to behold. (Good food to eat ;) ) The greatest weapon we have against
negativity and worry and stress is our ability to choose one thought over
another. It is that simple.
I want to be a positive force in this world, if nothing
else. THAT will be my passion. That is what this month has taught me. I will be the passion.
