These days I feel totally, utterly and completely blessed! I don’t have boat loads of money, or a big fancy car, but I have everything I need and more. I’ve learned to live differently than I had before. I try to only buy, keep, or be around quality. Not quantity, but quality. My friends are good people. I try to live in a state of contentment with gratitude. Grateful for what I have, and it works, I feel truly grateful for what I have and feel content and blessed. But I’ve recently been thrown a little bit for a loop. It’s become easy to ride the ups and downs of life with the small things in life, like someone cutting you off in traffic, the rude person behind you in line, or the unexpected bill. Recently however, my best friend was diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time – this time stage 4. Finding that place where I’m accepting of what is at the moment, has left me feeling a little uncomfortable. My initial reaction of feeling like I was going to throw up, seems so much more appropriate. Hindsight and past experience has proven to me that worry, sadness, and despair, will not help me or her. My yoga training and practice helps reminds me to not put a future outcome to what may be, but to count our blessings and celebrate what we have now. I keep having to remind myself of that… hope your doing the same.
Just a thought…
With Love, Goldi
