Green Eyed Monster

   Be ever so careful of the monster.  Green eyed or otherwise.  Jealousy, envy and resentment are by far the most lethal to your joy and abundance.  Be aware of how you respond emotionally, honestly inside the secret place where feelings come from, to things, events, gains and losses of those around you.  If you feel jealousy or anger when something good happens to someone else, you attatched negativity to those events happening to them and also to yourself.  Soooo, you have made a mark. winning the lottery is bad, getting a promotion, is bad, finding a great house in a great neighborhood, horrible!  When it happened to someone else these were your feelings so there you go!  Feel joy about good things happening; no matter to whom it may be.  
  Feel good when others prosper!  If you realize that your happy response, a true feeling of "good for you!"  This will put you on the the same frequency as those who have received any kind of good fortune.  If you dislike someone and something bad should occur in their life and you may say "oh, I am so sorry to hear that, it's to bad!"  While inside you're green monster is doing a river dance and making you feel so good about something bad happening, get it?  You are attracting negative events to your life.  You gave such joyful, soulful feelings of joy to a negative event!
  The things that you have positive feelings about, you will attract.  Remember that.  If you want to be on the winning side of anything you have to be on that team. You have to be on that frequency.  Seek people out who may have already attained the things you wish to create in your life and feel for their happiness as though it were your own! 
  It's all about the feelings.  Our emotions have the power to create, keep them on a tight leash.  The way you train yourself to do this is to ask yourself a question...."Is the feeling I have about this situation putting me on the same channel to receive it or avoid it?  What do you what to happen?  Decide soon.  I will tell you this, if you feel envy you obviously want it and you are pushing it away when you attach a negative emotion to someone else receiving it. So, with much love I say "knock it off."  Love is the fly paper of good things, not resentment.  If you see an acquaintance  who ahs put on a few pounds and you feel good about her back fat, get ready to roll!

Walk It Off ...


   There is nothing like a power walk.  It's even better with a friend. Yesterday I walked with my friend, I'll call her Sara for the sake of the story, it's also her name. Anyway I feel great when I walk but I feel like I can go further and faster with a partner. Sara and I are particularly good walking partners because she one of the few who can walk faster than I do and she witches at me if I don't wear sneakers.  I hate sneakers.  I love flip flops.  Clearly, I know a power walk in flip flops is a mistake, I don't care I hate sneakers.  Anyway, if people have auras and I'm told they do, and I could see them, which I don't, I'm guessing Saras' would look a little like fourth of July fireworks.  Lots of color, lots of action.  She has a fiery personality that I enjoy.  She and I are both passionate about our families and try to be our best selves.  As far as I can see, the  only thing we really disagree on is some aspects of religion and sneakers.  Oddly, we are very much on the same plain with many differences.  My husband is a blue collar worker, hers white. My youngest child is thirteen hers is five.  I am fifteen years older but she in a grandmother, I am not.  I get a kick out of her.  
  Here is my dilemma.  We walk and rant, yup that's what we do.  The thing is it feels great, the walking and the ranting.  It's harmless we don't bad mouth anyone and have a good cop, bad cop thing going.  We pull each other up by the boot straps depending on whoever is is in a downward spin that day.  
  The ranting is mostly about frustration, you know, trying to make it all work, finding balance.  I think that venting is a good thing.  But I worry that when we are ranting we are attracting more of the things that frustrate, consume time and shake rattle and roll our nerves. 
  If you have an issue, say, with a child and you continuously talk about the problem with the child then the theory is you are keeping yourself on the frequency of having problems with that child.  You are supposed to discuss the things you love about that child instead. Give the love you have for them your eye not the problem. But that eliminates the ability to blow off steam.  So here's the question if I'm only thinking about, talking about the things I love concerning that child then maybe I feel better and don't need to vent.  But then I worry about denial.  I don't want to stick my head in the sand either.  Can you address, deal, cope and handle without venting.  If gratitude is my best tool is it my only tool?

Believe It's Possible

Believe.....You can say whatever you want but it's what you believe that counts.  That's why placebos work and why delusion festers in many of us like a like an unclean sore.  It's why addiction is rampart.  It's why we stay in relationships that just don't work.  So the bad beliefs we hold are super successful and so we  get stuck in ruts that really are not to deep to climb out.  If we would only believe we could.  Sooo why are the good beliefs and the ones that make us strong and successful so elusive?  They are out there, I know there are people with huge odds stacked against them that can persevere.  If you realize that there are literally millions of events happening simultaneously in this world that could impact you in as many ways without a moments notice you have to see that anything is possible....anything. It is said that the definition of insanity is continuing to do the same thing and expect a different outcome.  You have to change the way you think to change the way you feel so that your beliefs and feeling are on the same plain. So believe. Believe hard. Believe with feeling.... But most importantly believe with conviction and absolute joy!
