There are so many distractions that take my focus away from things that I should keep my focus on. There are so many things to think about, kids, cars, media, money, opposite sex, wives, Job. All these things are valid in our daily lives, struggling day after day, yet these are things I created in my search to survive. Now I know that all these things are stresses for the most part, my wife doesn’t stop pushing me , my kids forever want something, my dog dumps on the floor, my boss is an asshole, I don’t make enough money, and on it goes. What I have come to realize is that these are things I thought I wanted or needed, and now that when I had them, I made them burdens instead of thinking of them as gifts, and when I had them I wanted something different. Now that I am without most of those things, I know what there value is, funny there’s a saying “you don’t miss your water until your well goes dry”, how true but there is another way to go.
I must remember that a great deal of things are made up from my imagination. True somethings are gone but, for me so much has been given me in return. I have a foundation rooted in spirit and light, I been given friendship and support, I can make good choices, I get what I need everyday, the power has been good to me, because I asked and I have received. There is power for all of us if we just reach for it and find the humility to reduce our ego enough to find understanding, that if I just get out of my way and not be distracted by all the things out there, that there is a whole universe to discover within. This information was so freely given me, by those who came before and left for us to receive. Peace and Love M
