Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
While it is nice to have things, the reason for the having is far more important. The things we have, the possessions we own can be a source of good in many respects. And there will always be things we need versus things that we desire. Things can be a source of positivity, but it is not the thing itself that has that power. The material things we have generally fall into three categories. Things we need, like food, clothing,
A little kindness could change the whole world. With all the animosity, racism, sexism and outright hatred being shouted so loudly of late, we each need to do our part to show more kindness. This could change everything. I think it’s safe to say that we all want to live decent, comfortable, happy lives. I don’t know anyone who wants to struggle, or to be in a constant state of fear, or to be miserable. I think that some people
Tears, you may not realize, are a surprising tool for positivity. Whether tears are being shed in happiness or in joy, or in sorrow and sadness, they are still a tool for Positivity. Because tears cleanse. When you are so filled with joy that you could burst and you begin to cry, it is an experience of ultimate release. So powerful that you are overwhelmed, and so moved. When you are sorrowful or sad and you begin to cry, it
Albert Einstein said, “Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” This is so very simple. If you try the exact same thing time and again with no variations, you will get the same results. That’s a big part of what scientific testing is all about. Every single week I post Positivity. Is it insanity? No. Why? Because I am not doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. I am
Everyday can be a holiday. That means that every day we can find something to celebrate. There are so many holidays out there that have very specific meanings. Beyond that, there are feast days for Saints every single day. So why do we only choose to celebrate on these specific days? Halloween, Presidents’ Day, Labor Day, Memorial Day, Arbor Day, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, Barthdays…these are just some of the familiar holidays. Then there are more obscure ones like Talk like
I want to be happy. Don’t you? Doesn’t that sound like a fantastic idea? What do we have to do to feel happy? That’s the challenge we all face. In especial when we’re inundated with conflict and messages of exclusion and hate and fear. Hard to find happy when there are so many messages that are the opposite. It is time to take back our power and do what it takes to be happy. It might be something grand, like
Only once every four years do we get this extra day. There are so many things we can do with an extra day. It is an additional twenty-four hours of possibility, potential, opportunity and all manner of positive things. We are all obsessed in this society with time. Linear time in particular. Because we all have schedules for our days we are constantly chasing time. Time to get out of bed. Time to eat breakfast. Time to go to work.
Think before you speak. How many times have you heard or read this phrase? How many times has it been directed at you? I believe if more of us took the time to follow this idea, we would live in a world that is less divisive, less angry, less full of fear. All too often people just speak off the cuff. They don’t consider their words, they don’t care just how powerful they may be. Yes, I am very specifically
I love you. This is the most powerful phrase in the world. It can lighten our step, it can change our mood, it can make our world better in ways beyond measure. I used to be terrified of this phrase. The implications behind it, the commitment, the expectations. I didn’t want to say it because I know that it can be ever changing, that it can be impermanent, and that it can be as destructive as it can be powerful.
Despite working to maintain and promote positivity, sometimes depression is unavoidable. I know how this works. You put the energy and focus into maintaining a positive mindset, you use the many tools available to build positivity – and yet you still get sat upon by the black dog of depression. What do you do with that behemoth breathing in your face? Depression is not something to be denied or ignored. If you have depression, It is a part of your
