One; Can Change Your Life

One thought, one word or one action can change your life forever. One person, one child, or one hug can begin a whole new path.

One kind moment, one promotion or one car journey can change your world.

One great summer, one kindred spirit or one peaceful, reflective moment can rearrange your thoughts.

The power of one is significant.

Be kind. Be hopeful. Forgive. Go with grace.

Let Life Flow

Many times we have situations where we try to direct or correct a conversation. Oftentimes we do not need to do that. We can let life flow.

My Dad pointed out a man dressed similar to another man we’d seen earlier and commented on how fast he had gotten ahead of us. I noted that it was not the same man, given they had on very different trousers and this one did not have face tattoos.

This then seemed to escalate just a little with a touch of tension. I immediately sensed this and let life flow. It did not matter if it was the same guy or not. It was immaterial whether he had, or had not, somehow gotten ahead of us (despite the other guy also having got on a bus going in the opposite direction!).

So I let him have his gasp of how incredible this was. And then we moved on to some other topic of discussion. And that little tension that had started appearing, disappeared just as quickly.

The casual observer may not even have noticed the very slight and subtle changes that had taken place in tone, pause, and face or body movements.

For things that really aren’t going to matter much, or at all, or at least will have no significant impact on your life or the lives of others, just let life flow.

Life doesn’t have to go according to your wishes or desired outcome in every moment.

Life’s Chapters

Your life is like a book. It is filled with many chapters. Some have been written while others remain blank pages.

Although the blank pages may already have the destiny in place, it is not written such that you can read it in advance.

When a chapter is completed, take a moment to reflect on it. Appreciate the experience before moving on to the next chapter.

Though don’t dwell too long on what has come to pass. Life is short and you are best to continue your present into the future. After that brief reflection, begin immediately and dive in, just as you would start a new chapter of an exciting book.

Life is for living. Get going! Write your amazing life story.

Life Is So Fascinating!

Everything in life is so fascinating.

The idea that we are here and can read this and understand it is quite amazing!!

It is incredible that our hearts beat, bodies digest and lungs breathe, all without us even thinking about it. Whether we are awake or asleep, busy or at rest, our basic functions keep happening without us having to give any directions.

Bees make honey that we can eat. How does corn know how to grow from a seed?

Life is so fascinating!

Isn’t Life Incredible!?

Yes.

Although there can be desperate and hard times, tough situations, emotional and physical pain, there is also the flip-side.

There is joy, beauty, euphoria, love, bliss and moments you want to never end with people you adore.

What you choose to focus on will determine where your life goes. The more you think about the negative, the more pain and suffering you’ll need to endure, if only in your own head.

The more you focus on positive thoughts and gratitude, the stronger, happier and calmer you will be.

What’s crazy is you get to choose. Your circumstances don’t have to change, just the way you look at them.

And for some masochistic reason, there are many people who prefer to complain, point out the downside, see fear in everything and be unhappy.

When you can just flip the switch in your head and focus on the positive and gratitude and feel better almost instantly, it seems wild to me to choose the opposite. (Yes it does take daily training)

What do you usually focus on? Be honest.

Isn’t life incredible!?
