Happy Friday everyone and next week at this time well you know....the culmination of the Holiday Season with Christmas, only 7 days away. We are ready for the day here. The tree is standing tall and the lights shining bright.
I spoke yesterday of gratitude and it importance in having a balanced focus in life. I believe it is a very big part of a joyful life.
Every child at a very young age should be taught how important gratitude is, I think we would have less stresses in adult life if we learned this fact early on.
The other part of a balance and joyful life is the word expectation.
Not meaning always expecting more as in greed or demand. But expectation that you can make a difference or that this day will be a great day filled with joy and happiness. When we expect the good to show up in us it almost always will. When we expect to find the good in others it will shine more brightly than if we are always skeptical in what another intentions are.
Yes, I understand that there is bad in the world. Just turn on the news and you will see plenty thats what sells. What I hope to expose, as if did not already know is that what we focus on, whether it is expectations of a great day or a wonderful visit with family is often what we will get. If we are looking for just survival of the day or just getting by or wondering when the next shoe will fall then we will often find that as well.
Expectations are key to getting what we truly want in life. Gratitude will keep you in a state of balance and joy and expectations will get you to a place where you truly want to be.
I hope your Friday is a blessed day....one filled with great expectation and joy!
Till next time.......... Smile and share that smile....make a difference with someone today!
