Choosing to Enjoy

Morning Meds; 12 3 22

We often sacrifice our joy of living when we lament our present experience while wishing it to be another.

Choosing to enjoy our present moments despite our preferences allows the joy of the present to become pleasant memories.

Two Questions

Morning Meds; 12 1 22

When life seems to stall when in pursuit of desired outcome, there are two questions one can ask.

The answers to one of the questions might get the ball rolling again faster than the other.

You can ask, “What has stopped me?”

This leads to a list of problematic circumstances and situations that are often beyond our control.

The second question you can ask is, “Why am I stopping?”

This puts the ball back in your hands because you have a say about you.

“I feel overwhelmed,” you have a say in that.

“I’m afraid it will not come to be,” you can adjust your beliefs.

We have access to abilities within ourselves that lay dormant unless they are touched by our inner knowledge that we are one with the Creator Of All.

There will always be circumstances and situations, and there will always be our inner ability to rise to the challenge.

Sometimes the answer is to ask the correct question.

Wagon Rides

The horse pulls the wagons we ride in.

We direct the horse guiding it where we want to go.

We can expect to see the same scenery as long as we keep guiding the horse the same direction.

Our thoughts and beliefs seem to work in a similar fashion.

Our lives follow our beliefs.

Chapters

Morning Meds; 11 20 22

Chapters in a story proceed another for a reason, each chapter prepares the reader for the next.

Often in life we wish we had arrived at our desired destination, but each chapter is a part of our journey.

It is the details that make a story interesting, without a variety of experiences we would not be the individual we are.

Addition to Flying Sleds

Djed-pillars are Egyptian artifacts.

When I posted my dream about Flying Sleds on a dream Facebook site, asking, “If someone recognizes a certain symbol / form I saw in a dream from somewhere, please share.” Someone posted information about Djed-pillars, which I had never seen before. It is so much fun when a dream shows you a mystery and then it is solved in our day-to-day world.

Dreams can be amazing experiences.

Valuable Steppingstones

Morning Meds; 11 19 22

Often our judgments passed against ourselves by ourselves are more severe than those by those around us.

Forgiving ourselves and the acceptance of our humaneness is paramount to the well-being of our emotional status.

We learned by repetition; we often have to walk through a forest of failed attempts to find the path to success.

No child has learned to walk without multiple falls.

Addicts don’t outgrow their addiction without multiple tries, we gain by increments of improvements.

Our greatest deterrent is seeing disappointments as an end instead of as a valuable steppingstone in the right direction.

Removing Shadows

Morning Meds; 11 18 22

Shadow are usually old hurts and fears in need of healings.

Often the quickest way to remove a shadow it to look toward the light and spend less time looking at the shadow.

Sometimes if it is a shadow that lingers it becomes necessary to look at what is creating it.

A shadow can’t exist without something to create its image.

Most of them are stagnated emotional energy that need to be released.

Love, kindness, and acceptance opens doors.

Loves light doesn’t cast a shadow.

Indiscriminate Faith

Morning Meds; 11 17 22

Faith is as indiscriminate as water.

It will grow whatever it is poured upon.

If our lives seem to be sprouting weeds, we need to look at the packet of beliefs we are presently watering.

Faith is just another word for, I believe, and what we believe will always grow.

We are perpetually creative; this ability is as consistent as our breathing.
