Something is brewing inside of me. This restlessness to dive deeper into life and all it's riches. It's easy to see the negative; it's easy to see all that is wrong, it's easy to see what needs to be fixed. Sad truth is that we focus souly "souly was used on purpose-soul/souly" the “to do list's” of our life. WHY? Does something that will only repeat its self again over and over full fill us? Buy food, pay bills, clean house, rinse and repeat!
Some of us/I find purpose in the small things, I.E. kids, helping people, yet as soon as those memories fade into the noise of TO DO LIST’s we so quickly forget all the joy they bring us.
Let’s suppose that life isn’t about what we’re supposed to do, but what we’re not suppose to do?
For example, We’re not suppose to see the bad in all people. What if?? What if we hoped in the very small of amount of Good that is Possible in people? Even your enemy shows kindness to someone. But we don’t want to see it. We want to only see things as though we’ve been wronged, and when we think and we are owed and wronged we only chase after ways to punish people around us.
I fight through every day to find good. If good was a neon sign I must be color blind. Yet, yet when people look for Diamonds they search, and search as if their life depended on it. Shouldn’t we also search for the good in life, as though it were diamonds just waiting to be found? Or are we so consumed by pain, hurt, loss, pride, and ego that choose to only see the dirt covering the diamond?
I feel numb to good news, often my thoughts are” it won’t last; good things don’t happen to me”. WHY do we/I except this narrow minded idiotic view of life? This shouldn’t be!
I’m moved when I see beautiful photos of , _________________ you feel in the blank. Shouldn’t I/we surround ourselves with these photos? If they move us to feel such amazing intense emotion of joy, and life to the fullest shouldn’t we dive in deep to their gifts?
If the answer is yes to the above question, substitute photo with people!
I’m moved when I see beautiful (inner beauty) people doing, _________________ you feel in the blank. Shouldn’t I/we surround ourselves with these people? If they move us to feel such amazing intense emotion of joy, and life to the fullest shouldn’t we dive in deep to their gift?
The challenge is to do the small things today so that they add up. First I’m going to look with eyes wide open, to look with an open heart, to look at people as though I haven’t been hurt, to find however small-good they’ve worked so hard to produce.
Then maybe then, I wont be so color blind, maybe then I wont ignore the hurting world around me, maybe then I’ll see the good in my own life!?
