Are you thriving or just surviving there is a big difference
Life Thrives
Donna DeVane
When you awake first thing in the morning what is the first energy that flows through you? Is it one of just making it through the day or are you excited at the possibilities that the day brings? Most people awaken to go through their day working jobs that they do not enjoy so that at the end of the week they might have a paycheck to meet the basic needs of their physical life. There's not much pleasure in this. The majority of human beings fall into this category. This mode of basic survival is similar to someone with physical ailment that the only a pill to cover up the symptoms. The sickness remains but you can continue on doing what is needed to us to survive another day, another week, another month.
Many people are not only physically diseased but financially sick. Their relationships also suffer from this just getting by ailment. Rather than suffering with lack in so many areas of life you have only to turn towards abundance and well being in order to experience those states. There is only harmony and abundance, everything else is in the shadow. Rather than living fully in the sunshine most survive , living in the shadows of life.
You continue in survival mode due to your not believing in any other possibility. You're limiting beliefs create your limited life experience. In order to live more fully and express yourself more fully you must become as a little child. Very small children are alive and awake to all the possibilities that are continuously before them. They do not judge what might happen based on the emotion of past experiences. Young children anticipate good things and therefore the world is always open for them. When adults can adopt this attitude towards life, life will then fulfill their expectations.
Releasing yourself of past associations is the key to having the expectations of a child. You must first realized that your now is a continuation of the past. The only reason it is a continuation of the past is that you will not let go of what has already happened. As long as you hold onto the experiences in the past, disappointments of the past, they are sure to be recreated time and again in your present now. How often have you heard someone tell a story that sounds and feels as though this experience happened only yesterday? When you realize that this thing happened twenty years ago you are surprised at the amount of pain that this person still carries. Yet most people do this to some degree bringing their past always into the present.
Once you realize that the past is over and only affects your now due to your thinking and feeling about it. You can choose to think and feel something different. Through self discipline you can retrain yourself to think thoughts and to feel emotions that are more in line with what you would wish to experience. This is not hard to do, although it does require daily practice. Each time you catch yourself going back to the old experiences simply laugh at yourself and choose a different thought. As you practice new thoughts and emotions the world will begin to unfold as a magical field of possibilities as you continue to adopt the attitude of a child towards life itself.
Be as a little child and open up to the possibilities of each day. This is the surest way to live a life in which you thrive rather than simply survive. It's always up to you to choose the path that you walk down through your thoughts and your emotions. Choose to see yourself and experience yourself as a magical being living a magical life choosing what you get.
