If you are waiting for someone else to fulfill your dreams, forget it.
If you are trying to change someone to fit your values, forget it.
If you want someone to make you happy, forget it.
If you are searching for the right place and time and people, forget it.
Searching outside ourselves can only offer temporary circumstances.
Life is ever changing.
Externals are transitory.
Depending on externals yields only intermittent reward.
Happiness is a choice.
Choose to be happy with what you have.
Fulfillment is recognizing what your have created and appreciating it.
Realize that your thoughts, beliefs and unconscious patterns have created your experience.
Does this mean you cannot change?
Of course you can change course.
When you drive over the bumps at the side of the road, you are reminded to make a correction.
When you are aware that you are on the wrong path, forgive your choice and choose again.
When we fall asleep at the wheel of life, we are reminded to wake up both in subtle and intense ways.
When we hand over the driving of our life to another, be aware that they have their own way to go.
When we wait for the ideal teacher, partner, spouse, job or place to live, we may not recognize it.
There is a vision in us that guides our way.
When we listen and learn, we stay on path and correct our course quickly.
When we are following another’s path, we may be caught in their lessons to learn.
When we are stuck where we are, because we fear making a mistake, we may fail to move on.
When we spend a lifetime fixing, remodeling, and wishing things would change, we may wait in vain.
Happiness and Fulfillment are an inside job.
Abundant living comes from living, loving and giving abundantly.
There truly is nothing to get and everything to give.
Life is a glorious creation that comes from the beautiful, positive and happy thoughts and actions.
We are always creating the thoughts, feelings and experiences about what we have.
We can easily think “This is Good”, feel Good about it and experience the Goodness we have.
We may believe we are victims of circumstances, but we can choose to see things differently.
We make the mistake of blaming others for our choices, but we have chosen to give them the choice.
NO one can make me feel anyway.
I am choosing the feelings I experience.
I am choosing the life I live.
I am choosing the values I hold.
I am choosing to feel blessed or cursed.
I am choosing to be happy with what I have, or unhappy about what I don’t have.
I am choosing to be responsible for responding with love and gratitude or fear and discontent.
I am choosing to enjoy creating my life or waiting for someone to come to make it better.
I choose to be happy and appreciate my life, because it empowers me to enjoy my creations.
Loving you,
Betty Lue
From a reader:************
Two months ago, I picked up on your suggestion to try the 30 days of "I forgive.., I choose & I am grateful" exercise & it has indeed change my life. At first didn't think I could possibly fill up the entire page for each, but sure enough, it came tumbling out. The exercise opened my eyes to the subtle critic still alive & active in my mind, reminded me that I always have the power to choose differently & align myself with Spirit within & lastly, helped me remember that everything is a gift. I still do a mini version every day &/ or journal.
I just wanted to tell you that what you send through the email ether world does fall on fertile ground and reaches real people.
