Greetings All,
Just a note -- It is so important that we take time to live. Sure, if your eyes open in the a.m. and you are able to breathe, then you can be assured that you are alive. That is a plus and to be appreciated. My Aunt Pearl used to always remind my cousins and I as children, "Everyone did not wake up this morning," she would say. I understand that more now as I mature.
However, there is a definite difference between being alive and living. Likewise, there is a big difference between living and surviving. As well, there are contrasts between the concepts of living and consciously living. I encourage living consciously.
What does this mean? To live consciously is to direct one's life. The opposite is to be a pawn, or like an extra in someone else's life drama. Conscious living is to be the lead character, and the director of your own life. It's about choosing how you desire to live. Here are some questions to pose:
How do I feel about my life right now?
What would I like to be different?
What will I choose to accept and what is best that I change or let go of now?
What reality would I like to live on a regular basis?
Just the thought of these questions brings us into a conscious mode of thinking and feeling. For now, keep these questions and your responses in mind regularly.
Remember, how you feel matters. And, most importantly, you are the only one responsible for how you feel. The choice is yours.
I choose to enjoy every moment of every day regardless of what is happening around me. I am observant and care about how others feel. However, I know that just as I am responsible for how I feel, the same is true for everyone else. Think about it.
Choose to feel good and watch great things begin to happen more and more in your life. Think well. Treat yourself well. Treat others well, but not at your expense. You should not have to subjugate yourself, make excuses for success or apologize for being awesome. The people who truly care about you will always be happy for your success. They will appreciate your laughter and enjoy you being your Truest Self. These are the people that matter.
So, feel good and be the conscious creator of your own life, which will control the experiences you have. This way, 'How You Live,' will be phenomenal!
Peace, Blessings and Live,
Simply Fab
