Im a little angry today. Im frustrated with a lot of things, some of them small, some of them global. Im irritable and grump and frankly, I think I might be walking a thin line on becoming a curmudgeon (new word I learned from Chris Cherek at Gails house) So what better way to use that energy than to allow it to serve its purpose? With its purpose being, to wake me up to the fact that my love and gratitude tanks are running a tad low. I submit there is no better way to use the energy that comes from being frustrated and pissed off than to expand your awareness onto the imbalance that is causing the undesired feelings. Part of that might mean doing stuff to create change if change is required in your life to create balance and part of it might mean looking for the stuff (energy) you need to create a sense of balance all around you. When youre out of balance (too much pleasure, too much pain, too much greed, too much selflessness, etc) life gets crazy (and yes people, there is such a thing as too much pleasure) life gets crazy and its hard and your perspectives are usually all pretty shitty on either side of the fence. But we have these super fancy built in emotional GPS systems that try like hell to keep us on a course with balance being the objective. We dont always listen to that GPS but it is always there. Its really simple, when youre being a grumpy asshole like I am right now, and its not serving any kind of purpose, its an alarm bell saying dude, you need to look around for some nuggets of love and gratitude because the scales are off a tilt a touch. Sometimes, you just cant muster up that balancing energy in your own body and you need to be inspired by other people who are overflowing with it. And sometimes people need to be inspired by you. (That whole balance thing again) Right now, I needed to find it outside of myself to sort of activate it within my own heart. And this little video certainly made me appreciate all the good thats wrapped up in my life within all of my VERY diverse group of friends and family so I thought Id share it... https://youtube/watch?annotation_id=annotation_907981&feature=iv&src_vid=5_v7QrIW0zY&v=tXAg5XdK8ac
