Regardless of your current circumstances, there will always be people that are better off and worse off than you. Regardless of what is happening in your life right now. How good your feel or how bad your feel.

But everything is temporary. If you are in a dark place, then there is always light available to you. Just like there is always a spring after winter. There is always a brand new day and a sunrise after every dark night.

The world and the universe are infinite in darkness and light. In death and new life. The constant infinite cycle. Take solace in the knowledge that when a loved one dies, they will be reborn, just like on a new spring day.

Just like a new morning that arrives every day. There is always hope. There is always rebirth. There is always something to fight for. At no point do you ever feel you have to surrender or give up.

For with the knowledge of the infinite universe and infinite rebirth and infinite new days, you have nothing to fear. The world as we see it lives within our mind. We see what we choose to see.

We choose what we focus on. In a world full of war and hate and fear and anger, we can choose instead to see a world full of hope, of love, of a new day where everything will be different.

With every assault course out there, (physically and metaphorically) there is always a finish line. And at that finish line, there is relief, excitement, joy. For the pain and hardship has come to an end.

And so it is, that there is always an end to the pain and hardship and struggle. There is always a different way of being. There is always hope. There is always hope and high vibration.

Pain and struggle is always temporary. It is always a choice. When we choose darkness and low vibration, we choose struggle and suffering. When we choose to change our state to light and high vibration, we see the world through different eyes.

Just as when we choose to be grateful for everything we have in our life. We choose to focus on what we do have, and not on what we don’t have.

For when we focus on what we do have, we are sending a clear message to the universe that this is what we love in our life. This is what we want more of.

When we complain about what is in our life. When we focus on what we don’t have in our life. We are once again sending a clear message to the universe.

This is what I want. I want more pain and struggle. I thrive on this. Send me more. And so, the universe sends you more pain and suffering.

And so it is down to you to have the awareness of what message you are sending to the universe. What are you asking for in your life. What do you want more of.

Everything comes down to our state of being. Whatever happens to us, there is always a lesson. There is always opportunity. The universe, God, did not put us here to suffer and struggle.

Unless of course we choose it. Unless we subconsciously send the message. Unless we focus on ignoring the gifts sent to us every day. When we don’t appreciate the beauty around us, it will be taken away.

The reality is, that it is always there and has always been there. But we shall simply not see it. Others will see it and marvel. But we shall be miserable and a victim of our life.

Everything is happening to us. Everyone else is happier, more successful, has more money, has more luck, has more nice stuff. We have nothing. But we don’t see the family with no roof over their head.

With no money to buy anything. With only one meal a day. No birthdays to celebrate. But even they can live in gratitude. For even they can find things to be grateful for. They can be grateful for simply living in the moment.

For having more presence than most others. To embrace what life they have. For there is always something to be grateful for. There is always someone worse off than you.

Even if it is the rich man tormented by his thoughts. He allows his thoughts to ruin his existence. He suffers and struggles. Yes, he has nice stuff but he would give it all away in an instant to have a quiet mind.

A mind that doesn’t torment him. He would give it all up to live in a state of presence. To see the beauty in the world that you see every day. His money and stuff is meaningless without love and fulfillment.

Yes, money is helpful but it is not everything. By itself, it is worthless and meaningless. Many a rich person has killed themselves for they lose all sense of hope.

Regardless of what they have, the one thing they lack is the most important. Hope of a brighter future. Hope of a new day, a sunrise, light after dark. But everything is an illusion that lives in your head.

You get to choose how you feel. Powerless or powerful. Your circumstances are irrelevant. The amount of money you have is irrelevant. The amount of nice stuff you have is irrelevant.

Your state of mind is the most important thing. How you choose to see the world. What you choose to be grateful for. Be aware of staying in a high vibrational state.

Be aware of sending love to everyone and everything around you. Embrace your super powers as a human.

Be aware of your thoughts. Be aware of the message that you are sending to God and / or the universe.

I’d love a quick like and share to help spread my stories to others.
