Reminding One's Self ...

In my last post, I said that I was detaching from negative thinking ... and this is true. However I have to keep reminding myself that I have so much for which to be grateful. It is easy to fall back into old patterns of thinking, and momentarily I can do that. But it seems the universe is working with me, and when I lapse something will happen to remind me of how fortunate I am.

An example was this morning. I had been feeling a little flat after a rather quiet weekend on my own. Being a widow I sometimes feel lonely, and miss my man. I could feel myself slipping down, and then my mobile phone buzzed. When I checked there was a beautiful message from a friend, who said he couldn't wait to catch up with me again. Sometimes it takes someone or something to jolt us out of our melancholy.

Instantly I felt better, and I reminded my self how lucky I am. The beautiful people I have in my life, and the opportunities I have, far out weigh any lack! And then it came to me that we don't really lack anything! Whatever we think we lack is already there. With the right attitude, and devine timing all will be granted to us ...
