Are you faced with a challenge today? A bump. A mountain?
Yea, we've all been there and we'll continue for some time to come. But over the last 10 years, I've really learned some things and I'd like to share them with you... so you can take on the day like a champ.
From time to time I walk into the lion's den. Sometimes out of circumstance or out of my own ignorance to my own good. I become engaged because I'm missing some tools to help me maintain peace. No one's immune to this and here's why...
Those bumps are strategically planned for us. LIFE, by definition, is growth. Growth in all things. Physical, Mental, Spiritual. Things we can see and things we can't. But our process of growth is to have faith.
If you planted a Jalapeno seed and then dug it up every day to see if it was growing, then you know what would happen. Nothing. It would fester away and die. So, it's the same with us. We have to grow... or die. Again, physically, mentally or spiritually.
We all are seeking peace, but it means different things to different people. Peace for me is knowing that the future is secure. Knowing that what I'm doing is growing, even though I may not see a result yet. But not everyone has a strong faith, so we who do... have to help others in any way we can by staying calm and keeping on.
Things only seem difficult because of your perspective. So, it's imperative to shift and see "the truth." And the truth is that now, in this moment, all things are good. And the number one thing that will help to make that a permanent stable is GRATITUDE. So today, just for today, be grateful. Grateful you're alive. Grateful for the beauty in your life.
Take a moment and close your eyes. Breath and just find 10 things to be grateful for. Just ten.
LifeBumps are meant to help us grow. Grow out of our LIMITED perspective and into REALITY. The reality that all things are good... if we think they are. And the cool thing is... you get to choose. GOOD or bad, it's YOUR CHOICE. And gratitude will help.
I usually write about cars and movies. But, I'm grateful I can write about this, FOR YOU. And if you've read all of this, then you're ALIVE. And today, you can change and grow. So get your ass out there and do it...
Then, help others to do the same and watch the world change. GIVE COOLNESS. GET COOLNESS. IT'S THE LAW.
