Trust me, I know this.
When you are going through a lot in your life, it can be hard to muster gratitude.
What???
But picture this!
You are in the dark, just light a candle, and the dark and fears are pushed out. It gives illumination to grace and safety. For me, gratitude is the light that illuminates my world, keeps me calm, gives me solace and helps me stay in the moment. In the moment and in the safety of that light, I am safe and capable of moving forward, most often in spite of fear. For me, gratitude, grace and saying “thank you” is a muscle memory. It is always there if I just choose to invoke it … my body, my heart and my spirit don’t forget.
Don’t get me wrong: Loss, change, confusion and stress are no fun at all.
So Practicing gratitude is easier said than done, you may say.
It’s easy to be thankful for good things, but what about things and situations that “look” bad?
But here is the thing,
Continuously dwelling on the wrong situation, or person, doesn’t make the situation any better, but worse! You are only feeding energy into these negative emotions, which in turn energizes the wrong thought patterns. It’s a vicious cycle. So why not free your soul?
Believe it or not, bad experiences can be good too. They are a lesson; they are what we need to progress at some time. They are blessings.
Like anything else, it gets easier with practice.
The phoenix is rising. I can see it and feel it, and it’s exciting.
So Wake up every morning ‘giving thanks’ and end the day with a ‘grateful heart’, no matter how bad the situation is and trust me, you’ll start experiencing miracles in your life.
Saying “thank you” to God Almighty, with sincere appreciation puts us instantly into a positive frame of mind. Gratefulness will catapult us to a higher frequency and will trigger loving thoughts naturally.
Watch yourself during the day and listen to your inner dialogue. Do you easily get discouraged or angry? Does your temper rise quickly? What triggers your mood to change? No matter your present circumstances, acknowledge and be grateful that you are alive. You, at this point of your unfoldment, know that you can change your situation according to your sense about the situation.
The phoenix is rising. I can see it and feel it, and it’s exciting.
Oh, how do I explain this?
Gratitude is like sunlight for the soul.
Just as sunlight nourishes and energizes plants, allowing them to grow and thrive, gratitude nurtures and revitalizes the human spirit.
As the power of gratitude illuminates the many blessings that enrich our lives, we find ourselves standing at the threshold of a deeper and more profound understanding of our place in the world.
Practice gratitude, sincerely in your heart and action towards others.
Gratitude is a light.
Allow your radiant circle of light to illuminate your being!
P.S.
Seriously, I do not expect you to read every word up to this point, but if you did, I am saying thank you. Thanks for stopping by, I mean thank you, sincerely.
Lots of love…
