It's waiting to happen
Sometimes it seems that we can't see beyond what's in front of our nose. Sometimes life seems to be just the humdrum of activity and no chance of change around the corner. Sometimes we can't think what we should do about a situation. Sometimes we feel stuck and nothing is changing for us and how useless it all is. Sometimes we feel that we could just throw in the towel, run away, hide, and cancel life.
But then, how can we possibly know what's going to happen next, or how a solution can be found to our problem when all we can see is the situation from our own perspective? We are not in a position to see ourselves or our position from any other perspective, yet everyone in the world who knows us can see it differently from us.....because they are different from us......they are not us.
Nor can we possibly have any idea of the activities that are happening in the world that may well impact on us directly or indirectly? Millions of things are happening every nano-second that are impacting on other things, which in turn impact on others and so on, as the dominoes tumble over, the one down the line gets to hear about it.....and bingo! Then we think our good fortune just came 'out of the blue'. It's just we don't know of the other trillion things that happened before hand to make our own little piece of good luck a reality. All our 'good lucks' are happening right now, it's just that they haven't got to us yet!
Did you know, there is someone in your locality, who you don't actually know, doing something that is going to impact on you directly? Their deeds and intentions are manifesting around them, as yours are too.....around you. Things that you do are affecting others in ways they can't imagine. Career move? Interesting meeting of a kindred spirit? An opening and opportunity to make your name? A laugh? A raise? A change of fortune? A holiday? A chance encounter?
Also there may be other things going on that are less fortuitous......and we won't even think of them. Why? Because, 'what you think is what you get'.
'Thinking manifests', as I've written about many times before. Whatever is in your heart and what is going through your mind, you are energising them at the moment. So it's important to keep your thoughts on what you do want, and not on what you don't.
Sometimes, when we can't see the way forward, where we can't see the outcome, we just need to take one step. And as that step takes us to a new place, even only six inches, only a phone call, only a walk in some fresh air to clear our head, ......something is happening as a consequence of our actions. We only need to take one step for a whole chain of activities to be set in action. We will never see all the consequence of our actions down the line, as people we've never met and who we never will, become affected by 'our walk in fresh air'.
Whatever our step is, we do need to keep in mind what we do want.......as 'What we think is ......'. What we really want, is just waiting to happen. It just requires us to really believe that it can happen and take the first step.
Two good quotes from Mike Barker at Positive Quote of the Week
"Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe".
St. Augustine
"Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step."
Martin Luther King Jr.
I needed to remind my self of all this today, as it's not been an easy one. Indeed it's been difficult and I've felt myself being drawn into negative thinking. So.....swiftly changing tracks, changing my thoughts, and having had the opportunity to write about it, I'm already feeling a load more positive. I hope you are having a good day!
