I am pleading with everyone to stop sending negative energy out. Many of you don't realize that with each thought or word of fear, anger, arguing, or distrust you are sending negative energy out. Please be aware that when you're talking about anything and anger, hate, putting down anything, complaining or gossiping, you are creating negativity.
I have been asked many times why I smile all the time and all I can say is why not!? I always live with a smile in my heart and am grateful for what I have. Yes, I would like more, who doesn't? But I am truly grateful for what I have because it could be worse and it has. When it is worse I keep repeating to myself, everything happens for a reason, look for the lessons, find happiness in what ever it is because it will be over soon, all will be well! I know that sounds like that is too easy and it is but its hard to get use to it so you have to constantly keep reminding yourself, it WILL be BETTER!
The most important lesson in our lives is to trust our higher selves, our soul's voice, not the ego (this is the one that creates the fears). I sometimes have to shake my head when I here someone say or do something that I know is wrong for them but they are the ones that have created their drama. I do not have to join in the drama, so all I do is remove myself from the area, or turn a deaf ear (my own version of "talk to the hand").
Remember that you can only take care of your own mind and heart. You can advise or suggest things to others, as I am now, but only you can do it. So, let the light within you shine for others to see that all is well in your world and it will continue to be so and can be so for them as well, because you have put a ripple into the universal ocean to travel long and far. So think what 100's, 1000's, or millions of ripples can do to this world if they only put positive energy out.
But this means that you have to stop listening to the hate & fear mongers out there trying to scare you with everything that is going on. The more you keep your mind on what they are pushing the more energy you are giving them. They are trying to keep the negative energy active. Mindfulness is the key. Thich Nhat Hanh put out the 14 Mindfulness Trainings and this may help some of you. You can find them here: http://plumvillage.org/mindfulness-practice/the-14-mindfulness-trainings/
WE ALL WILL STOP IT. With LOVE and PEACE in our hearts and minds, the words that come out will be said with LOVE and PEACE so that only positive energy comes out from each of us. Be mindful to keep your mind and heart filled with positive feelings, this way you're always sending forth wonderful energy.
With Love for everyone and Blessing to you all,
Jo Ann
