... its ALL good I had the opportunity of learning a few things yesterday and I realized it just now. I was getting bent out of shape about work which commonly happens at about 4:30 every day lately. It is always about something I have no control of and my thinking would be much better if I just let go. My thinking tells me I need to do more and try harder and then the other people will see. But that is another story for another time. I sat down in my car and started writing and after a few short minutes, I realized that my faulty thinking that brought me to be bent out of shape was the selfish need for everything to go my way and not being able to accept events as they are. A couple of hours later I was with some friends listening to a speaker discussing a familiar story. He said something that caught my interest. Everything happens the way it is supposed to happen and god has my best interest at heart Hmmm.... he did not say that things will go my way, just that things will turn out the way they are supposed to and they will turn out for the greater good. Someone else said something that I hear a lot within my group of friends... I have had a lot of fun over the last couple of years, my life is good ... dont get me wrong, bad things have happened ... BAD things ... hmmm.... I really dont believe bad things happen. I think it all happens for the greater good. If things happen for a reason, how can it be bad? Wayne Dyer said something in one of his books that stuck with me ... There is no good or bad, it is thinking that makes it so. Basically, if I an to label something as good or bad, I am judging the situation. I am sure you may be coming up with bad things that have happened in your life like a job loss, a divorce, a death of a loved one, etc. I would suggest these events are corrections for something better later. When someone tells me they are getting a divorce I say congratulations. When a friend got a DUI recently I said Good because it caused him to change his life and get sober. I sat down at my desk this morning and started writing as I do every morning. I usually just write about the items that started bouncing around in my head since I woke up. This morning was rather mild and the normal type if stuff ... other people not doing things the way I think they should do it. I get over that quickly. I started reading a blog I get each morning called Tiny Buddha. At the top of the first article was written: “The most important decision we make is whether we live in a friendly or hostile universe.” Albert Einstein We really have the ability to choose. We can make the decision to be grateful for what we have ... to want what we have not have what we want. My default mode is MORE. I try to understand the concept some refer to as enough. I HAVE started to understand that I am where I need to be RIGHT NOW. I can trust that the universe has what us best for me in mind. It may not be what I want .... it may not be what I expect. I am confident that it will be much better.... it will be much more. Peace and Love...
