Perspective Is The 'Key To Happiness'...

     Maybe, it's just me...perhaps, only, my view-point on life, due to my own, unique, experiences, and, how I've coped with them, processed them, and, ultimately, learned from them, but, today, I see miracles in, almost, everything my life offers me. From the moment my eyes flutter open, each day that I am given, to the time I 'lay me down to sleep', I am aware of the greatness that surrounds me. My focus is in finding the 'fabulous-ness' which exists, rather than concentrating on that which is not. Believe me, I am as aware as anyone else, as to the failing, faltering, 'missteps' mankind, in general, is making, and, if I chose to, could fret and worry about this fact. Instead, I try, always, to see the good, and, to be, myself, the example I wish to see. Each morning, I set the 'intention' of finding the positive in whatever I am to experience that day, along with saying a prayer, for the safety and well-being of my family, friends, and, the population, at large. I choose to believe that, with every positive thought I send out to the 'world', some 'good' will result. Imagine, if this be true, what our, earthly, experience, could be, if EVERYBODY did the same; how, very, 'warm and wonderful' our lives, here, in the physical, would be, resembling that, which, as I accept, we will come to know, on 'the Other-Side'. My belief-system supports this reality; that, here, on this earth-plane, we are working toward elevating to the 'LIGHT and LOVE'. It is here, where we learn our 'life-lessons'. With each lesson learned, and wisdom acquired, as the result, we move forward, on our path toward that end. I am grateful that I recognize this, as I walk this life-path, for, acceptance of this has, greatly, improved my overall experience, here. Our physical, human-lives are the greatest, gift; they, offer us opportunities to engage in things we, otherwise, cannot embrace, e.g., our five-senses, which allow for our ability to smell a flower, give a 'bear-hug' to someone we love, or, taste a delicious, meal. Each of these things, often taken for granted, are, really, fleeting, temporary, pleasures, and, for this reason, I see them as small, 'miracles', a gift given us by God. So, as you set about your day, today, during this, 'Thanksgiving Season', think of all you have to be appreciative of; recognize these things for the 'miracles' that they, truly are, and, give thanks to He who has made it possible for you to enjoy them.
