Abundance...I forgot
Abundance means there's enough for everybody. And I think it also means appreciating what we have, not seeking "more." It isn't a quest for more. It's the ever present sense of being enough. Having enough. Scarcity says, "I need that and then I'll be happy. Because I don't have enough right now."
I have been measuring myself, my life, against other people, strangers and loved ones, and I come away feeling less than. Envious. Jealous even. Not living in abundance.
This is a tough one. I picked a tough word this year.
Meditation is probably the thing I desperately need, but I tell you, I fight that whole deal. Can't settle into it. I haven't even really challenged myself to do it. My head says, "Nah. You don't need that."
What I think I'm gonna do is this: I am going to ask the universe how I can be of service. Every day. Giving will help me to operate from a place of abundance. And if I put that out there, the opportunities are just going to COME pouring in. I believe that.
Living abundantly is an important goal for me. And I'm not programmed for it. I have to change my programming. That takes daily focus and intention. Meditation? Maybe... but I'm not going to assign myself that yet. I'm not a monk, geez. Just a woman waking up to possibility and getting fired up about feeling all the things and embracing all the awesome.
