Loss is a part of life.
We all know this.
We don't have to make sense of it.
We only have to be willing to accept it.
It seems like with each day.
I am being reminded of the fragility and preciousness of life.
The reality is.
It can.
And will be.
Over in the blink of an eye.
This is not to be morbid.
This is to be real.
In trying my best to accept this fact.
I'm realizing I need to make a few adjustments.
To how I live each day.
And who I want to be.
No matter what is going on around me on the outside.
The only thing that truly matters.
Is what is going on in the inside.
The thoughts I am thinking.
The information I am choosing to take in.
How I spend my time.
Who I spend my time with.
And where I choose to focus my energy.
I've come to realize I create a lot of my own suffering.
Whether it be from past experiences,
Past conditioning.
Past programming.
I am choosing to continue to carry it and believe it.
Keeping the attachment to it alive.
Some of this serves me.
Most of it does not.
I no longer want to be driven by the past.
I want the chance for new.
In order for this to change,
I must change my thoughts.
To change my inner weather.
To feel peace.
Love,
Joy,
And content.
In that specific order.
I begin with peace because if I am not in a state of peace,
Where my mind is quiet.
Free of judgment,
Comparison complaining,
Rumination.
Peace will be impossible.
When the mind quiets.
The body naturally reacts.
By softening and relaxing.
Once in a state of peace.
Love is allowed to come through and show up.
With peace and love present.
Joy is able to emerge.
All three of these creating wonderful sensations in the body.
With peace,
Love,
And joy flowing freely throughout your mind and body.
A sense of contentment is able to wash over you.
This is what I want.
This is how I am choosing to live,
Moment by moment.
The fragility of life is teaching me to be this way.
I no longer want to continue creating my own suffering.
If I can create my own suffering.
I can create my own peace,
Love,
Joy and contentment.
In this moment.
I choose peace.
Love.
Enjoy.
Because they feel better.
They feel good.
And I want to feel good.
Don't you?
May you choose peace.
May you choose love.
May you choose joy.
So that you may experience contentment.
Many blessings.
Namaste.
