Acknowledge the Wind

Life at times can indeed be challenging it can push at us, pull at us, make us stop and ponder and it can make us move abruptly.  Life can be hard.

But it is not how hard life can be it is how hard we can harness the lessons life gives us and the wind it sends our way.

Winds can guide us or they can tear us down.

Winds can power a city or flatten a village.

Ask the New England area of the United States what the winds and jet streams can send.  A record snow fall and countless inconviences just because of nature.

The winds of change
The winds of love
The winds of power

The wind can alter our course if we don't set our sails right.  The winds can cut through the power of the ocean but if you don't use the power of your sails the ocean will take your ship for a very unsettling ride.

The wind can be powerful

So our can our thoughts, our fears, our addictions, our emotions be controled by the winds of change.

We over indulge and call it comfort food.
We watch hours of television and call it entertainment and decompression of our nerves.
We smoke, we do drugs, we drink all be cause we  want to feel less stress, less angst.

The wind can be as powerful as an untamed thought.
We all have been there.

So how do we acknowledge the wind and our thoughts and move forward with out taking steps backward.

How indeed.....

Patience
Meditation
A strong sense of values and needs and not just whims of wants.

A want can push you and pull you it has to be measured as to how much you truly need it.

We need air to breathe
We need stable ground to walk on.
We need food to survive and thrive but how much do we truly need?  How much indeed.....

We need water to drink and exist upon.

We need love and happiness and joy as well.

So the next time you share a smile just know you might have... no you did spread a little happiness, a little joy, and to some a little love!

So smile on
Dream on
Meditate on

On the simple notion that we are the captains of our ship and with the sails we can navigate safely through the waters and winds of life.

Sharing and caring and sending positive thoughts your way.
