Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
Sometimes you just need to take a break from your regular life to find more Positivity. While it is possible to discover things to be positive about in my day to day life, there is something to be said for getting away from it all. Sometimes you do this with a known escape. You choose an activity or a familiar place that is an escape from the everyday, yet still something that makes you feel good. Sometimes you do something
What does negativity get us? Think about it a moment. Looking at the world as a desolate, distressing, dark and unhappy place feels awful. Focusing on corruption and greed and acts of violence and intolerance and hatred is disturbing. So why do we do it? You cannot focus on undoing a thing once it has come into being. But that’s exactly what we do. We focus on the things we don’t want, we focus on how to stop them…and yet
Pure, unadulterated joy. Don’t you love that feeling? The freedom, the release, the positivity? That feeling of comfort and warmth and bliss that makes you smile and remember what it is to be alive? We are so inundated with dread, with fear, with anger and hatred and division and harsh reality. We are constantly being subjected to grim news and intolerance and denial of joy. We are slaves to community, to jobs and finances and responsibilities that rob us of
I understand you. We all want to be understood. We all want people to “get” us. That is how we find our friends and lovers and other companions in this world. They simply understand.

You deserve to be happy, you deserve to be at peace, you deserve to be recognized and acknowledged for everything you do. You are going to have bad days. We all do. But despite that, you are worthwhile, and I am here to validate your extreme awesomeness. I know that you
Positivity matters because how you are feeling will make or break your day. Some days it’s really hard to see how this can be done. When you are working on a problem with few or undesirable solutions or when you give too much focus to the news media and see a dark and dismal world it is difficult at best to find and feel positivity. Sometimes it just feels like it will take too much work, too much effort, and
Today is not yesterday. Today is a new beginning. Today is unique, and there will be no other day like today. You have an opportunity to do something new, something different. You have a new day with which to explore the world, to make time for yourself, for friends and family, to create something different. Yesterday is the past. It happened, it is done. It may have been a fantastic day, it may have been an awful day, but it
What do you do when it feels like it’s all for naught? How do you handle that feeling of being on the verge of tears, ready but unable to cry, in pain physical or emotional? What do you do when you feel as if all of your efforts, all of your brave talk and tough choices feel as though they mean nothing? Don’t fight it. Let it out. Feel the sadness.
