One of my favorite quotes of all time, “things aren’t falling apart, they are falling into place” –Unknown
How can we sit down, relax, breathe, take a moment in our busy day to just say it’s all going to be okay. We trust, we listen, we encourage ourselves, we think positive thoughts, we focus, we are strong, willing, alive. We are all of these things, however the mind can butt itself in the way and say we are not these things…why? What causes ourselves to do this? Is it our upbringing? (And it not just from our parents but it stems way way back to every ancestor passing this weird thought pattern forward…so we all need to “stop” judging/blaming our parents for our mistakes or our thought processes..because is was already in place before they were even born…) We came into this world and learned from not only our parents, but from our teachers, our librarians, our coaches, brothers, sisters, friends, neighbors, and they learned from their parents, teachers, etc…..you get my drift….
My biggest concern today, is today. The present moment…look around and what do you see? How do you look at the world? Do you see violence from the news? Did you see a butterfly landing on a flower? A couple getting into a fight at the grocery store? A baby laughing at his Moms funny faces? We all get to choose to live the life we want to live and the thoughts we want to think…Its all up to us! We can see the ugly in the world and keep listening to it and thriving on it, or we can choose to see the good and the beautiful…Things will always be changing, growing, expanding, destroying…its the only thing that is actually constant. So next time you think things are falling apart…how about think… they are all just falling into place.
Nurture yourself, your being, your Jewel….inside as well as out.
