Positivity: The Future is Not Yet Written
The future is not yet written.
This is one of the most amazing, positive truths we can face. Why? Because it means that everything is still negotiable, and that even if we find ourselves on a less-than-desirable course, we can change it.
It is easy to get caught up in believing that the future is set in stone. Lots of people work very hard to sell you on the notion that there are limited possibilities for the future, and that we have to accept the limitations associated with that. Yet it’s totally not the truth, because the future is still ahead of us.
“Always in motion is the future,” Yoda told us. Because there are nearly endless possibilities for that which is coming up in our lives, this is totally the truth.
Because most of us are not so good at living in the now, we are constantly looking to the future. We see where things are heading based on society, politics, world situations, and sometimes even vague and utterly untenable omens, signs and prophecies. We keep looking ahead, thinking forward, and building expectations for the future based on frankly limited notions or ideas that are by no means set in stone.
Today we may find ourselves in situations we’d rather not be in, some within our control, some not. We can only do so much to change the politics of the nation, and there is nothing we can do that will change how other people think, feel and act. We can, however, choose for ourselves if we want to face a future of negativity or positivity, so why do we get so focused on futures we do not want?
Consciousness creates reality. The Law of Attraction is clear: Think and get emotional about terrible things, horrible futures and that which you do not want and guess what you will get from that? Prepare to be disappointed, because that is what you are expecting. We all have the ability to choose what we focus on, and to work on seeing positive possibilities for ourselves in the now, and from there to develop a desirable future.
Today the world is full of division, fear-mongers, hatred, selfish leaders, greed and corruption dominating the conversation. The future is not yet written, tomorrow we might be visited by aliens from across the galaxy who rid us of these awful things and cure all of our diseases and end poverty and take us to see worlds beyond our imagination. It’s possible, because the future is not yet written.
The future is not yet written. This is an excellent thing!
Finding positivity is not hard, but it does require action. Knowing that the future is not yet written, you can work in the here and now to create something amazing. When we recognize that the future is not yet written, we can take control of our here and now to build the best future possible, and in doing that we empower ourselves. When we feel empowered, we often spread that feeling to others around us, and as such can build more positive feelings in the collective consciousness. We can use the positive feelings this generates to dissolve negative feelings. When we take away negative feelings, we open up space to let in positive feelings, and that is something we can be grateful for. Gratitude leads to happiness. Happiness is the ultimate positive attitude. Positive attitude begets positive energy, and that is always a good thing.
