So tell me, what thoughts filled your mind as you woke today? What future images of you came to your mind's eye? When that little beam of the morning light slipped through your window frame, which part of the inner you did it strike? When you looked out your window, did what you saw first bring smiles or a frown?
Or maybe you dashed out early, no time for the slow motioned morning mind exercise. That's okay.
Well, i woke up feeling new. Every situation around me was still the same, but my mind was renewed. It wasn't the perfect morning over here. I can't say i was so happy or sad, i wasn't so strong or weak, but i was just refreshed somehow.
If you woke up feeling bad or good, guess what, it was just the right feel! Yes! The morning is always loyal, it presents its packages evenly. You think you got the wrong one today? Well loosen up! It's what's right and sealed just for you. You know why i think so? Because to me, the morning is a similitude of hope.
When the morning introduces the day, it makes you want to think you have another opportunity to do things right, and you're hopeful that whatever energy you engage today will yield desired results however bad things went down yesterday. Well, you don't know for sure if that is how things will work out until you're done and reviewing at the end of the day, but you can't deny what strength the morning breathed in now..
My wish is that you don't lose that hope in the course of the day, that you build your strength on it through all you have to do, and return with it intact. This way, you can't have a bad day or night, you're always in the right mood to welcome the right thoughts and explore opportunities.
It doesn't all have to happen today... Yes you try hard everyday, but still seems you're in the same old place, i totally understand. But i believe if you could do a little more, if you could grow just an inch closer, it's okay. You've achieved something, and that makes today better than yesterday.
Everyone fantasizes about their "Someday", that special day when their dreams have finally come true. Everyday is someone somewhere's Someday. Might not be yours, but someone once said: "if your neighbour is giving a testimony, then God is in your neighbourhood".
There are days you feel the special need to try harder, those days come with their special overflow of strength, so please by all means, act on that strength, but don't let yourself get beat down for anything. Don't judge yourself with what is going down. If you can recognize just as little as a flame, build on it, walk with it, walk through it everyday, and someday, you would have reached the fire.
Sometimes, when i'm overwhelmed by the thoughts of discouragement, and i know i have to speak it out to relieve my mind, and at the same time,stay strong and courageous, i begin talking about me to myself like i'm someone else. I start saying things like:
"This brave girl looks frustrated today, but she's the most determined person i know. She's angry and tired right now, but you need to see how beautiful she is when she's happy. She looks weak today, but she's the strongest woman i know. I can't wait to see her achieve this target that she keeps struggling with, that day, i'll see her happiest and most beautiful smile!"
Then i begin suggesting solutions to the "supossed" her... Lol... And then i bounce back! You should try this sometime, it's hilarious and makes you feel like a child, but that's okay if it snaps you out of that state.
We are often reminded to forget the past. We try not to freak about yesterday, but many atimes, we live in fear and anxiety of what could be obtainable today. I hope with this you can remember to do your thing and keep calm.
Again, let today's flames lead you to tomorrow's fire. Whatever anger, guilt, discouragement, failure, turn it to positive energy, let it grease your strength's engine, and fuel your mind's car to your desired destiny.
