Standing Tall- Through It All.
“ you can rise and you can fall. You chose. Your thoughts will help you through it all”
I am a lucky one ! Or am I just hard working? I think I am a bit of both…
I wake up most mornings early. The sun is still not in the sky. There is nothing outside my window except the sound of the morning breeze and the little twitter of the birds as they wake up in the trees. I trot down stairs to my coffee pot that says “ wakie wakie…. “ and my day begins.
Most times it is spent in some hours of thought and meditation. I like this time best. Sitting with a good book or “ The Good Book” helps me refocus one the day. My counseling is a priority for me and through years I have understood it’s value. I like being creative. I say that there is too many negative people in the world to day. If you want to find a reason why something will not work, you can find too many. I am someone that thinks of a good plan, and finds the way to make it work. when you search for the positive you will find it. Then I implement it, and then most of the time I share it.
Hence all these articles and writings. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy what i do. That is the main thing to remember. You must enjoy your work. I know sometimes it can be tough when you are just working to get your pay check, and all your boss can say is “ can’t you do a better job” I know you try. That is what is most important. Your inner spirit will recognize that. Think that you will make it and your inner spirit will pick up on that soon. Even though people around you may not really encourage your ideas or welcome your ways, remember they don’t have your experiences, and sometimes you just “gotta do it” that is the best way to find your inner joy.
- Reflection / Something to Ponder
Your life is like watching a movie. It emanates energy. Even though we are sitting through a movie for only a few minutes the scenes before us draw from us some vibrations. Yesterday- for example: I watched a story of a once famous wrestler. In many parts of the story I was almost compelled to get up and walk away. It was well acted, and my heart ached for this man. I knew it was a fictional tale but it evoked in me a sense of deep sadness. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed it, because I knew in my mind it was only a movie. But just think ??? How would I relate to that in actual life? That would be downright awful.
Such is what a reflection is. The universe will react to our energy. Almost like looking into a mirror. So you pull a face and it will give that same face back to you, and it will be a poopy one ( LOL ) generating even more low vibrations until you feel so down that depression sets in. Slowly your conscious mind will tell your spiritual mind that” things suck !!!” and soon both minds will be spiraling you down to who knows where.
The quick way out of it is to change your form of thinking – pronto. Or else you will even drag down those who are close to you. That is what negative patterns of thought do.They leave you being self centered, and rather overwhelmed. It’s all about my misery. Remember misery breeds company. So don’t make it your favorite companion. It ain’t that cute !
So turn the switch my dear friend.
The good thing in all this is that creating this little negative bout will take a little time, by the time your body, mind and spirit is ready to go it has taken a few hours if not a few days. So that is the time to pull the plug off “the mood” and make it a positive one.
Just stand Tall within you. Knowing that there is no other like you. That in itself is powerful. Generate this power as soon as possible.
end of reflection…..
Chapter 2 -Looking deeper in to YOU.
Sometimes you have to realize what makes you grow. Don’t just look at your work- as work. Look at it as “ Your Work”. i am sure that there is some set of skills that you are using. Recognize them and start thoughtfully improving them. That is like fine tuning a violin. Soon the sound of your spirit will be as fine as those playing in the royal albert hall.
Remember “We all have a voice” maybe you don’t think that your thoughts are that important. maybe just random thoughts are not, but if you can find true joy and realize, that you are indeed growing day by day. You were born to perform works and your spirit actually went through much just to get here. Then we start to appreciate our lives a little more . We starts seeing the sun in the sky and not always criticizing the smoke in the air. Recognizing a problem is important however going back to it often is not.
So as I was saying, Keep an open mind. Keep your focus on what you were brought here to do. and if you don’t really like what you are doing, find something after work that could still bring you some happiness.For our attitude needs to have a bit of chocolate once in a way. It needs a little pep. Remember to believe in you. and don’t being down inside if another puts you down No my friend stand tall within. I understand that you cant really give your boss a talking to, But you can still keep your spirits high and within your heart just kindly agree to disagree. Just know when to speak it and when not to. Sometimes we have to go with the saying” the boss is always right” but at the end of the day remember who you are and work on standing tall within your spirit and within your heart.
There are many I know who do not take the time to read what I send out to them. That is ok. I am not offended. Maybe what I say does not count. Then I wish them well and hope that they find their food for thought at another store. I don’t mind. There is much to learn in this world and we must remain strong vibrant an positive.
Remember that when you lower your head and stay down very soon you will hit a lamp post. Look up, stand tall, be brave and be strong. and share what you know with a deep love of helping another and you will never go wrong.
Stand up and stand tall and you will make it through it all.
may the blessings of today be with you now and always.
