Do you need a change up to a more positive perspective?

To change ourselves effectively, we first had to change our perceptions. – Stephen R. Covey

Most of us have a deep desire to understand and be understood. This world, at times without the correct perspective, can be a very confusing place. But, it doesn’t have to be.

In fact, choosing to see the secret power a positive perspective holds can free us from a world of hurt, pain, struggle and bondage. Just like your best friend or fondest family member, positivity can support you, encourage you, lift you to new heights, make you feel loved even when you’re alone, make you smile, make you laugh, give you good luck, help you when you’re feeling blue, bring you more abundance, help you achieve your next goal and so much more.

The Secret Power of a Positive Perspective

The fact is, positivity is who we truly are. That’s right, by nature we are all pure positive beings – with radiant, white light souls. We are all unique. But, here’s the deal… it’s up to US to use that power or to ignore it. Are you using it to your fullest potential right now?

Most of us could be a little more (or a lot more) conscious of our thought process as we are moving throughout the day. If right now you feel lack or bitter in a particular area of your life, that’s natural – it’s your soul calling to you and letting you know that you could do better or things need to be resolved. We are meant to truly THRIVE on this beautiful planet and allow our souls to blossom to their fullest potential, not merely just survive and get by. You deserve BETTER!

 

It’s all in the mind. -George Harrison

Do you know you have within you the power today to make positive changes that will bring about the kind of difference you would like to have in your life? Yes, you have that power within you right now. When you are ready to make real positive changes, you won’t let excuses set you back. Let go of blaming other people, specific circumstances, health, family history, age, and environment. It comes down to something that only you can control – your thoughts, words, attitude, and actions. If you truly want to reach your goal you will go after it with your whole heart and overcome any obstacle.

You can start to change everything right now by choosing a positive perspective on any given situation as often as you can. Living a positive lifestyle doesn’t happen overnight. But it can happen quickly if you stay conscious throughout the day of your thought process and your actions.

The Power of Positivity

To start harnessing the power of a positive perspective you need to maintain a positive mindset. This will allow you to begin drawing more abundance into your life, and in time, the life of your dreams. The way we are living in the now comes down to how we think about things and our mental attitude towards life. We have the ability to make major positive changes by choosing the positive perspective in everything and in every moment. It doesn’t matter how much money you have, what your health is like, how many friends and family members you have, what you weigh, how you look or what size home you have, look at your life with a grateful heart and find something good to think and say about it. That is choosing the positive perspective.

Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves. – C.G. Jungj

For example, there could be co-worker that you don’t really get along with, you may even strongly dislike the person; but when you open up your heart and mind and really look at this person you will find at least one good quality. In time, by focusing on that one good quality about that person, more reasons to like that person will surface. It’s just how it works! You can apply this same theory to anything.

Be grateful for where you are right now and continue to anticipate the positive changes and growth that is coming from choosing the positive perspective in any moment. Living with a positive attitude is the only way to live your best life because you are consistently feeling joy. Feeling joyful brings more abundance.

In fact, joy is key to living your best life. As long as you are happy where you are, more abundance will continue to be drawn to you.

How to Choose a Positive Perspective

We would consider ending this article here, but many of you have asked how to choose the positive perspective when things are really difficult. Hardships and challenges are when the positive perspective is needed most. It may not be easy to find it, but it is always worth it. Most of the time, it involves forgiveness and an open mind to continue to search in your heart for loving, kinder thoughts.

In an excerpt from “In Pursuit of Excellence” – “Ellis and Harper (1976, 25) identified several perspectives or beliefs that can interfere with your capacity to perform to your potential and live a joyful life:

• The belief that you must always have love and approval from all the people you find significant
• A belief that you must always prove to be thoroughly competent, adequate, and achieving
• The belief that emotional misery comes from external pressures and that you have little ability to control or change your feelings
• A belief that if something seems fearsome or threatening, you must preoccupy yourself with it and make yourself anxious about it
• The belief that your past remains all-important and that because something once strongly influenced your life, it has to keep determining your feelings and behavior today

You cannot have the love and approval of all people at all times, no matter what you do or how much you give of yourself; nor can you always be thoroughly competent at all things. None of us is, or ever will be, perfect at all things. We all screw up sometimes, and that’s OK. That’s being human.

We all have the capacity to change our perspectives, improve our focus, and directly influence our feelings. We are not locked into the limitations of our experiences. This ongoing capacity to change and improve is what makes life such a wonderful adventure. We all have room to grow and to engage continually in the process of becoming.”

Final Thoughts

It’s important to develop the confidence inside of you to know that every challenge will sculpt you and make you stronger. Picture yourself looking back on the situation with pride at where you have come and how much you have accomplished. Know that every difficulty is making you wiser, better and bringing you closer to your goals. See what it can do for you, not what it is doing to you. We must trust in this, because when we lose our faith we slowly creep backwards. And, if this becomes a habit, we begin to create a series of problems and negative events.

Listening to your intuition can also often help you choose a more loving, positive perspective. You know what to listen to by observing your feeling when you think about it. Embrace the positive perspective or put your attention to something else that makes you feel joy until you can come back to it with a clear mind and fresh eyes. With practice, you’ll be feeling inspired and abundant in every area of your life. In fact, your life will feel like an everyday miracle!
Remember: Life is not what happens to you, it’s about your perspective. Choose to harness the power of a positive perspective.

Think about a positive perspective can you add into your life today.

For me the greatest beauty always lies in the greatest clarity. – Gotthold Ephraim Lessing

Have you ever experienced foggy weather? Low visibility and the inability to see what you know exists leaves you feeling lost in the once-familiar, now misty world around you. Not until the sun shines to evaporate the surrounding ground clouds can you really see what is around you?

Fog can creep in on the human psyche too.   Whether physical, mental, or spiritual, a foggy feeling in life is one that wants to leave you with little to no progress, practically stealing the potential love and positive energy that awaits you.

The good news is that you never really have to feel like you’re trapped in any one of these fogs.  Clarity can always be with you, all you need to do is “warm-up” the hazy environment around you to reach above the D.E.W. Point.   Here are a few practical hacks to help keep you above a “D.E.W. (depressed, empty, worn-out) point in life.”

How to Attain Physical, Mental, and Spiritual clarity:

Attaining physical clarity:

Physical clarity brings a real feeling of being alive.  It helps you bounce out of bed in the morning, avoid the afternoon slump, and even read your favorite book before bed. When you’re caught in a physical fog, you really don’t even want to get out of your pj’s.

Implement these three tips to build a strong foundation for physical clarity:

• Exercise –  When you exercise, you literally “wake up” your body.  Your muscles, mind, and natural defense systems strengthen, an increase in metabolism keeps you vibrant,  and the benefits of looking your best will surely sway you to stay active.  Not to mention, you’ll probably live longer.  😉
• Proper sleep –  Studies show that sleep helps keep you energized, repairs the body, and can even help prevent cancer.  Get between 7 and 9 hours each night when you can to make sure you’re feeling your best each day.
• Water – The right amount of water each day (half of your body weight in ounces) helps your body incredibly. Water flushes toxins from your body, keeps your chemical reactions in check, and even helps you go on schedule

Implementing these three habits alone will help boost your physical clarity and keep you feeling alive.  Read another post – 101 lifestyle habits that can help you attain clarity and positive living.

Attaining mental clarity:

In a mental fog, you might always be trying to track down your most recent thought as if it were fleeing you every other moment.  Just like attaining physical clarity, there are a few pillars to build in order to support your mental clarity at all times.  Here are a few tips that are sure to help:

• Eat well: When you live a healthy eating lifestyle that’s high in fruits and vegetables, it has multiple benefits for your brain that will help keep you mentally, and emotionally, stable.  Antioxidants and micro-nutrients contained in healthy foods go a long way toward protecting brain function.  As researchers have shown, many different foods have an effect on the brain.
• Stress Less: Stress raises levels of hormones that block normal brain function.  It can even damage brain cells.  Use meditation, positive affirmations, and of course, the power of positivity in your daily life and proclaim, “I am too blessed!” (to be stressed). 😉
• Supplements: It’s a constant battle to get the perfect amount of nutrients for your brain and body to function to its best. Taking a quality, plant based supplement shake or vitamin supplement that contains DHA, vitamin D, and vitamin B12 will help you keep your mental edge.

Using these three building blocks for brain power will help keep your mind sharp and firing on all cylinders.  Mental fog?  Forget about it!

Attaining spiritual clarity:

Oftentimes a spiritual fog produces questions like “why me?”, or “why is that allowed to happen?”  The path toward spiritual clarity can bring about many questions, but the first thing to remember is that everything is happening exactly as it should.  What appears in the present world (yes, even this post) is a manifestation of collective thoughts, desires, and beliefs from the past.  The collective desires, thoughts, and beliefs in the now play a significant role in creating the future.  Here are a few ways to clearly see the co-creative power blessed to you by the divine:

 

 

• Meditate

If you’re new to meditation, use this guide to help you get started.  If you already practice, you know how much meditation can help you achieve spiritual clarity.  Whether you’re looking for a sign, or just figuring out which step to take next in life, meditation can really help manifest your thought and bring a clearer path forward.

• Positive Affirmations

You can heal your life through positive affirmations.  If you’re new to positive affirmations, it’s okay. They are very easy. Simply create or choose affirmations that resonate with you and your situation the most. Write them down or type and print them out. Say them to yourself every single day. Even better, say them all throughout the day. If these seems silly, remind yourself that you’ve been saying affirmations about your life already every day, you just didn’t realize it. Positive affirmations simply bring the truth back into your life. The truth that you have the potential to be healthy and well.

• Believe

A spiritual fog, just like real-life fog, leaves you not able to see what is truly there.  Believe that a spiritual fog is simply covering up, not eliminating what is there.  Allow yourself to believe that you are co-creating with the divine.  Focus every day for 7 seconds on what you desire to send it to the Universe, and for 68 seconds to help bring the beginning of that manifestation to fruition.  You will see that as you ask and focus on that positive desire, it will be delivered at the perfect moment.

And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. – Matthew 21:22

You see, it’s not that your clarity is missing or gone, it’s been there the whole time – it’s just not visible through a mental, physical, or spiritual fog.  Once the light shines and warms you past the D.E.W. Point, your clarity appears once more.  Take in your new clarity and witness the wonders of life. They have surrounded you the entire time.

By allowing the proverbial “sun” to shine in your life, it will brighten and warm you inside and evaporate the haze in your life.  You’ll be seeing clearly before you know it. 🙂

 

 

Inspiration can come from the most unlikely of places. Many people go looking for inspiration, but many times, just allowing yourself to be in tune with things naturally will provide great inspiration.  It isn’t necessary to have an epiphany one day to become inspired either. It can happen in the smallest ways and from the littlest things. In fact, changing daily habits and committing to positive change can provide a lifetime of inspiration. Commitment is key!

10 Tips for Daily Inspiration

1. Breathe and enjoy your surroundings

Though our lives are crammed with studying, working and dealing with errands and other headaches, taking the time to take a walk, breathe, and do nothing but enjoy the moment will make you a more relaxed and pleasant person, who is open to many different things.

2. Laugh More

Laughter is the best medicine, especially for issues that common prescriptions cannot cure. Taking life less seriously and finding the joy and silliness in each day will inspire your personality and allow more positivity to flow in your life.

3. De-Clutter

Though multitasking can be seen as a strong point, doing too many things at once means that you are not giving your full attention to any of these activities. Keep your mind and space clean. Participate in one activity at once and allow yourself to live in that moment. Also, keep your home and workspace clean. A clean space will clear your head and allow the creative juices to flow.

4. Live with Purpose

Every life needs purpose and every day needs meaning. When you wake up in the morning, decide the purpose of your day’s course. No purpose is too small. If the purpose of your day is to remain positive or smile more, then that is an excellent place to begin with your inspiration.

5. Subscribe to Positive Media

What are you watching and reading daily? Be sure that it’s positive. For instance, listening to the nightly news could be switched with watching a program on GaiamTV. One great way to receive daily inspiration is to stay subscribed to Power of Positivity on Facebook. By becoming a fan and being part of this fast-growing, positive community you will receive daily quotes of inspiration and connect with like-minded people any time.

6. Choose to See the Positive Perspective

To become in tune with your own life and receive personal inspiration, you must learn to tune out the opposite. Worrying about negative wants, needs, and thoughts will muddle your own thoughts of purpose and confuse you. Instead, make a commitment to yourself and your personal goals.

7. Repeat Daily Affirmations

Positive self-affirmations will help with self-confidence and will give you a daily boost of inspiration. You can find excellent positive affirmations and articles describing them simply by searching “Affirmations” at the top right of the screen here. 🙂

8. Stay Creative

For some, this is painting, for others it’s reading, meditation, or writing to name a few. No matter what your preferred outlet, do it daily or as often as you feel inspired.

9. Take Action

Actions that you participate in help define your purpose. Constantly participating in positive actions will help you become a positive person without thinking about it.

10. Be Y-O-U

You will never be happy or inspired by imitating or becoming someone else. Remain true to who you are and give the world the gift of your own personal inspiration and positivity.

Today, we will look together at the half tortoise pose. But, a bit of advice before we begin.

As with any type of exercise, it’s important to hydrate prior to starting a yoga session, and it’s vital to work within our own range of limits and abilities. The half-tortoise pose is a relaxing posture that gifts the spine with an invigorating stretch. I use it like bookends:

• At the onset of a session to assist the warmup process.

• Near the end, to gently help my heart rate return to normal.

“Exercises are like prose, whereas yoga is the poetry of movements.”  – Amit Ray, Yoga and Vipassana: An Integrated Life Style

Here’s How Half Tortoise Pose is Done

1. Sit on a yoga mat — shins on the floor — with your buttocks resting on your heels. Ensure that your heels and buttocks remain in constant contact; keeping your belly taut makes it easier to maintain contact and increases the intensity of the stretch.

2. Inhale deeply, lifting both arms to the sky.

3. Press the palms of your hands together, overlapping your thumbs. Your arms should be straight, biceps touching your ears.

4. Lengthen your spine and hold — feel the stretch.

5. Exhale deeply and slowly bend from the waist until your wrists, forearms, and forehead touch the yoga mat. To intensify the stretch, straighten the arms so that your wrists, elbows, and triceps form an uncurving line and you experience some stress in your shoulder blades.

6. Keep your chin as far away from your chest as possible while maintaining contact between the forehead and yoga mat.

7. Hold this pose for as long as comfortable, continuing to breathe normally.

8. Inhale deeply and return to the starting position with your arms lifted to the sky.

9. Exhale deeply, release your arms, and return to starting position.

The Benefits of Half Tortoise Pose

This pose induces a rush of blood to the head — providing nutrition to the brain — which improves function. Enhanced brain function slows down normal deterioration, decelerating the aging process. Performing the half tortoise pose on a regular basis helps balance serotonin and melatonin levels in the brain — two chemicals that are responsible for controlling the body’s sleep cycle — increasing the likelihood of a good night’s sleep.

In addition to a deep, relaxing stretch of the spine and shoulder muscles, the half tortoise pose helps tone the abdominal area, thighs, and improves the flexibility of the hips. It also massages and stretches the lungs, providing a measure of relief to people who suffer from respiratory disorders.  An excellent pose for the digestive system, the half-tortoise pose can help to diminish ailments such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and associated symptoms: flatulence, constipation, and diarrhea.

One of my favorite asanas, I love how I feel when I mentally affirm, “I blossom into the fullness of my being.”

We all deserve to feel truly happy every single day. The truth is that some of us have difficulty sustaining a good mood throughout the day. Chronic unhappy days become bouts of depression, and some people who need hope turn to medications. What if you could rely on food to boost your mood daily?

Nature itself is the best medicine. – Hippocrates

For centuries we have known that food affects our mood and mental health. Imagine this knowledge being applied and the food you eat being your daily medication to sustain a good mood, increased energy, and vibrant health. Eating clean not only helps you gain more energy, release toxins, and release weight, it also allows for mental well-being. A study found that vitamin deficiency causes a decline in mental health which leads to stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and other psychological disorders. If mental illness runs in your family, it is even more essential to eat healthy for your own well-being and to existing and future DNA.

Tweaks and additions to your diet can make a big difference. Eat whole foods as often as you can. Reducing processed and refined carbohydrates will also improve your mood because you’ll experience more stable blood sugar levels. You’ll be on the road to health and bliss once you understand what vitamins are essential for a good mood, which types of food have these vitamins and then eat these foods consistently. Below you’ll find essential vitamins and foods that boost your mood.

How to Use Food to Boost your Mood Vitamin Reference

Vitamin D

Researchers discovered that Vitamin D plays a KEY role in mental health and depression because it increases serotonin, one of the neurotransmitters responsible for mood. So, skip the Vitamin D pills and get out in the sunshine as often as possible! Most people will immediately go to a supplement, but studies show that real UV Light is the only way the body can produce Vitamin D that it recognizes.

Our favorite health coach and expert, Tyler Tolman, suggests getting in the sun at least 15 minutes a day and don’t use sunscreen. As an alternative, use organic coconut oil for maximum Vitamin D absorbancy. If you’re worried about getting skin cancer, throw out that negative belief. Tyler Tolman says, “A bad diet, sunscreen, and other chemicals on the skin cause skin cancer – not UV Light. UV Light [the sun and tanning beds] simply bring cancer out through the skin.”

If you’re living in a climate that isn’t always sunny or has harsh winters, Tyler suggests going to the tanning bed. Yep, that’s right. “I recommend any solarium with newer bulbs and a stand-up room so you don’t lay down in chemicals,” says Tyler. He continues, “If it’s a 15-minute session go for 10 and you will feel and look great from doing this 2-3x per week.” Tyler lives in Bali so he doesn’t have to worry about going to a tanning bed. But he said if he were in a city for more than a week with low sunlight he would definitely be looking for a tanning bed.

Antioxidants

A published study by the Journal of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine in 1998 found that Antioxidants can help perk up the mood of people affected by anxiety and stress. The 5 foods with the highest levels of antioxidants are:

• Small Red Bean (dried)
• Wild blueberry
• Red kidney bean (dried)
• Pinto bean
• Blueberry (cultivated)

This helpful article shows 20 common foods with the most antioxidants.

“Health requires healthy food.” – Roger Williams

Protein

Your brain’s chemical activation is dependent on the foods you eat.

Believe it or not, protein plays a significant role in keeping your mood and energy level, in check.  Proper protein levels sustain your energy, keep your mood up, and keep you strong.  Next to water, protein makes up most of your body weight. Protein is excellent for your brain as well.  Your brain’s chemical activation is dependent on the foods you eat.  Your brain cells neurotransmitters are made of amino acids which are the building blocks of protein, so it’s a ‘no-brainer’.  And when you eat protein, it raises the levels of another amino acid called tyrosine that help create the mood-boosting chemicals dopamine and norepinephrine.

B Vitamins

Folate and vitamin B12 seem also to be critical mood-boosting vitamins. Studies have shown that low blood levels of these vitamins are sometimes linked to depression. Some scientists believe that the body uses these vitamins to create serotonin, which as we mentioned, is one of the key neurotransmitters that help boost your mood.

Add rich dark leafy green veggies and beans to get more folic acid. Healthy sources for Vitamin B12 include nutritional yeast and plant-based fortified foods. If you discover you are low in B12, you can get B12 Shots from the doctor or use high-absorbency B12 Patches recommended by Matt Monarch, the founder of Raw Food World. While B12 is also present in meats and cheeses, it can be a very toxic and dangerous way to receive this vitamin.

Selenium

A study   1991 showed that with proper amounts of selenium, there was an increase in mood.  The study also showed that if there was a selenium deficiency, the brain is the last place that selenium levels drop, suggesting that the brain considers it very important.  A great source of selenium is Brazil nuts.  These nuts have very high amounts of selenium (68–91 mcg per nut)

Omega 3’s

More studies are emerging about the importance of Omega 3 Fatty Acids and their prevention of depression. Omega 3’s can boost mood and rebuild critical brain cells in performing cognitive function. In fact, a recent study found that consuming healthy Omega 3 fatty acids dramatically boost your mood and reduces negative, harmful thoughts. Some of the worlds healthiest plant foods in Omega 3’s are #1 ground flaxseeds, then walnuts, organic soybeans, brussels sprouts, cauliflower and winter squash.

The best doctor gives the least medicine. – Benjamin Franklin

A unscientific study at Appleton Central High School in Appleton, Wis., observed that students behaved better when they consumed healthy lunches of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. Dozens of studies show that plants are the most nutrient-dense foods on earth. The only problem is that getting people to change their dietary patterns is tough. Change is on the rise, but Kaplan said that the solution might be the supplementation of nutrients because it is integral that people receive less pharmaceutical intervention for mental disorders and more broad-spectrum supplementation.

If you choose to supplement, it’s essential to do so with superior-quality vitamins or a shake supplement containing multiple nutrients and superfoods.

As always, eating specific foods with these vitamins needs to be habitual. Eating healthier for a few days or once in a while will not bring the result you’re seeking. I’ve found that making small changes each week and keeping up with each habit will bring lasting change. We are creatures of habit and feel comfortable doing what we are used to.

Final Thoughts on Eating Good Food to Boost Your Mood

On a personal note, at one time I was very depressed and I learned to use food to boost my mood. So, I wrote this article from the knowledge I have gathered and experience. For most of my life, I had tried everything to release weight and be healthier and happier. At one point, I even tried supplements and medication. When I eliminated processed foods and increased my vitamin intake through plant foods and I experienced my life transformed. I want this for YOU too! 🙂

Please, if you have any questions, feel free to comment. I’m here and happy to help! You can also follow me on social media.

There are about 40 recognized faith based belief systems here on our beautiful little space marble. Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, the all-encompassing spirituality, and more receive their daily devotional by the millions. On the other hand, around a billion people think we’re floating through the void, just waiting for the lights to go out. That’s all OK by me – in fact, I think it’s time to jump into the entire subject head first. (NOTE: I am not preacher, scholar or quantum physicist. I’m just a regular person, trying to BE the positive change I want to see in the world.)

Every following comes fully equipped with their own variation, or “how-to” manual to go by if you’d like to enjoy the fruits of what the religious deity has to offer. Some religions even state that if you don’t follow the rules “by the book”, that you’ll eternally suffer, live in a ball of flames, or be forced to scoop dog leavings every day for the rest of eternity – something like that.

But what if it’s much simpler? Why do we humans try to over complicate things and separate each other?

I feel that there is a “source” for everything. Call that source whatever you like, be it God, Universe, Source, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster if you will, it makes no difference to me.

One way or another, it all started from that one original point and spawned outward to grow into what is “now”. Although what “is” is only a manifestation of “the source”, everything has it’s unique identity while still remaining one with its roots.

I’ve heard, “Oh no, that religion kills people, this is the ONLY way, etc.”… I’ve come to believe that this is not the case. If you don’t believe me, dig into the diverse culture of the world and you’ll see that the similarities between religion FAR outweigh the differences. Many differences are nothing more than the stories themselves.

Furthermore, I’ve heard that a phrase, quote, or scripture is an act of plagiarism; that one came before the other, and that it’s blasphemy to credit anyone else with a teaching because someone else came by and said it first.

Do you feel that an omnipotent, ever loving God would banish you from the fruits of Heaven for purposely/non-purposely infringing on his/her/it’s copyright and spreading the word of love, light, and positivity?

What if there’s no real “right” answer? What if there’s only a simple set of common principles to follow?  If so, are you living those principles in your daily life? That is your spirituality.

Here’s how I see it (please refer to the note above before a mental mountain of malevolence wells up as you read on).

There are a simple set of principles that just about every one following spirituality of any kind has in common:

1. Love yourself

2. Love others

3. Have faith

4. Know that the power of love is infinite

5. Cause no deliberate harm

This seems pretty easy to understand, right? It’s simple, straight-forward, and would fit on less than one page.

Surely I could write hundreds of pages on the topic, but it’s as easy as remembering to practice these principles with every thought, word, action and reaction. You’re really only in control of you; what happens outside of you is merely an experience awaiting your reaction. I’ve seen the most devout of religious folks lose their way in the simplest of situations.

So I ask you, will all the teachings in the world be thrown out the window when they’re needed most, or will you learn to start subconsciously LIVING these practical principles of spirituality with your every moment?

“The earth is what we all have in common.” – Wendell Berry

If I’ve learned ONE thing throughout the course of my spiritual journey so far, it’s that we all have one similarity – we’re human and live on Earth. We must remember that we’re all in this journey together; if we can’t support each other in a positive way to foster the growth of humankind, we’re doing ourselves a disservice; we’re ignoring the necessary glue that holds humanity together.

Think of everyone and their own (non-harmful) belief as just a different color in a crayon box. We’re not all the same, but we are in the same box. And if we don’t stick together how can we possibly fill in a picture with each beautiful color? For example, think of what the world would look like if blue never mixed with yellow, or if red never mixed with blue.

Everyone is on a spiritual journey and should be allowed to travel it – our path in life is both a birthright and necessary for the good of our spirit. If you think we have a “source” or “God”, cool. If you’re just waiting for the lights to go out, hey, that’s fine too, I just hope that this brightens your horizons up a bit.

Final Thoughts

For all I know, my opinion missed the mark by a mile. All I can say is that I’m moving along in this incredible journey of spirituality just as you are, and would love to share conversation with you about it. So, be sure to leave your comments in the conversation below!
