Friends, I have to say that today is a good day for me. This will be a quick reflection because I have a busy day ahead, but I want to share today because tomorrow I will not be publishing a reflection. Sunday is my day off (and well earned in my opinion). Now on day 17 of my 63 days of changing my thoughts about income and health, I feel like a balloon has been inflated in my chest and now I’m floating gently upward. It’s amazing. I am energized, motivated, and smiling. Whether because of my efforts to scour my toxic thoughts out of my life or because last night I went to an incredible concert, I don’t care. Feeling this good is a gift I plan to enjoy to its fullest.
Yesterday I was already seeing better thoughts and emotions arising out of the ash of my charred life, but today I gathered my thoughts, feelings, and physical symptoms with awe. I wrote, “I am ready to be successful by my own standards, not those of the rest of the world.” Then I continued, “I deserve to spend my time in ways that align with who I am and what I do well.” Another thought I added was to write, “I am fully capable of freeing myself from the mindset and condition of poverty.” These are mind-blowing ideas bubbling up from within, ideas so buried in the misery of my traumatic past that the weight of the trauma kept them from coming to the surface of my consciousness. Today I am joyful, open, and loving. I’m smiling.
In my surprised state, I continued to reflect that I didn’t care if this new uplifted experience is in response to having gone to one of the most beautiful concerts I have ever experienced; I’m just happy to feel lighter. It does bear mentioning that I went to a concert with an old friend from high school last night, and we drove two hours one way to see the Lumineers. Never in my life have I felt such positive energy from any crowd that large — 15,000 strong — and to palpably sense the joy from the whole group at once. That alone may have had a hand in sweeping me into a different state of being, but it doesn’t matter. Today I feel a delicious, silken flow to the air I’m breathing, and today my action is to remember this: my ultimate goal is to live well and share good vibes with everyone I meet.
