So You Want To Feel Happier?
Do you want to know how to be happier?
Do you want to attract more love, or money, or health into your life?
Do you want to heal your broken pieces?
Here is the secret. But you will find that doing what I suggest will not be easy. You will make excuses why you can't, why it won't work; you will doubt, mock, deny, say there is no Divine, no God, no Buddha, etc.
And, you will say the act is too simple. To get all you want you feel you have to struggle, fight, scratch, claw, suffer.....
Or, maybe you're sure you won't be heard, won't be seen, won't be loud enough, are too far back in line...
So, I suggest you whisper, or scream, whatever works for you.
But this practice will bring you into an awareness and a new relationship with the present moment; and honestly, NOW is all we have.
So stop being stubborn, just let go of all you have known/assumed/believed up to this moment, about everyone and everything in your life, in this Universe. And do this....
Get down on your knees so that you can touch the Earth. Feel it under you, SUPPORTING you, and all the judgments/blame/hatred/prejudices you carry around upon Her sacred ground. Yes, She still gives you a place to lay down and rest, even on your most wretched day. Solid ground.
So get down there. On your knees, put your hands on Mother Earth. Bow your heavy, materialistic, territorial, demanding, tired head. And say this---
THE UNCONDITIONAL GRATITUDE PRAYER:
DEAR MOTHER/FATHER GOD, I AM SO SORRY.
YOU HAVE GIVEN ME ALL OF THE RESOURCES THAT I NEED TO LIVE FULLY UPON YOUR SACRED GROUND, BUT I HAVE BEEN SELFISH AND UNGRATEFUL. I WILL BEGIN NOW TO GIVE THANKS TO YOU FOR THE AIR THAT FILLS MY LUNGS, BRINGING OXYGEN TO MY BLOOD, WHICH KEEPS MY BRAIN ALIVE, MY HEART BEATING AND MY MIND CREATING NEW WAYS TO EXPERIENCE YOUR GIFT. I GIVE THANKS TO YOU FOR THE WATER THAT NOURISHES MY CELLS WHICH KEEPS MY BODY INTACT AND IN MOTION SO THAT I MAY GO WHERE I PLEASE, TO EXPERIENCE YOUR BEAUTIFUL PLANET EARTH. AND I GIVE THANKS FOR THE COMPANY OF OTHER HUMANS SO I AM NEVER ALONE, AND FOR THE ABILITY TO TASTE THE EARTHLY GIFT OF FOOD, TO SMELL THE GREENEST GRASSES & THE SALTIEST SEAS, TO SEE COLOR & SHAPES, AND WITH MY EYES, TO FIND MY WAY THROUGH THE AMAZING BLESSING OF THE LIFE YOU HAVE LAID BEFORE ME. I GIVE THANKS FOR THE SOUND OF BEAUTIFUL BIRDSONG, AND THE SLAPPING OF WAVES UPON SPARKLING SANDS. AND I THANK YOU FOR THE ABILITY TO BE SELF-AWARE, SO THAT I MAY KNOW LOVE, COMPASSION, FORGIVENESS, GENEROSITY, ACCEPTANCE, JOY AND HUMILITY. AND THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND THAT ALL PAIN ENDURED BRINGS GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR GROWTH AND THE RICHNESS OF MATURITY & INNER PEACE.
I HAVE BEEN AN UNGRATEFUL HUMAN BUT I WILL DO BETTER. I WILL, FROM THIS POINT FORWARD, TAKE OWNERSHIP OF MY FEELINGS, MY CHOICES, MY BEHAVIOR, AND MY SPIRIT..........FOR MY SPIRIT IS ETERNALLY CONNECTED TO THE ONE (YOU), AND WHAT IS IN THE ONE IS IN THE WHOLE, AND WHAT IS IN THE WHOLE IS IN (THE) ONE. WHATEVER BEHAVIORS I CHOSE TO EXHIBIT WILL SPRING FORTH LIKE A RIVER FROM ME TOWARD THE WHOLE, SO MAY I CHOOSE WHAT I RELEASE OF MYSELF INTO THIS WORLD, WISELY, AND FROM MY HIGHEST HEART. I AM BLESSED TO BE ALIVE IN THIS MOMENT AND EVERY MOMENT, I WILL NOT WASTE ANOTHER SECOND SEEKING THE LOVE OUTSIDE OF MYSELF THAT HAS BEEN WITHIN ME ALL ALONG.
THANK YOU FOR MY LIFE, AND FOR PROVIDING THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH I CAN MAKE OF THIS LIFE ALL THAT A SOUL CAN POSSIBLY FATHOM.
I NOW GO FORWARD CLEARLY, CLEANLY, IN COMPLETE LOVE & GRACE. WHAT WILL HEAL THIS WORLD, AND MYSELF, IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE DEEP TRUST IN YOUR UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.
AMEN
Try reading/saying this for 7 days, each morning, and watch your life change. (It is time to to leave a better legacy for our Earth family. I hope we can soon embrace that thought)
Love, Paula
