Since Valentine ’ s Day will be over by the time I write to you again , I thought I ’ d help get you prepared . After all , it ’ s the official day to express your love , or as the jewelry commercials promise : “ There is true love here . In diamonds .”
Feeling a little intimidated ? Are you finding it hard to muster up the exuberance to showcase your appreciation so that your significant other
|
feels loved and cherished ? Or are you presently a party of one in a Noah ’ s Ark world ?
No matter which description fits you , in honor of this upcoming Valentine ’ s Day , let ’ s take a quick trip into the past to excavate your hidden storehouse of love energy .
Begin to rewind your mind . Here is the task . You are looking for pivotal points , magical moments , take-yourbreath-away encounters , and sacred interventions . The good stuff of life .
What do I mean ? If I asked you to evaluate your day-to-day reality , you would probably respond with mixed reviews . “ It ’ s okay . Acceptable . Awful . So-so . I ’ d give it a five . It ’ s been better .”
There are also those moments , chance meetings , and serendipitous events with your name on them . It is those magical experiences that have the power to transform the quality of your life forever .
I want to pause here to give you time to recall three experiences from your past that opened and expanded your sense of yourself as loveable , capable , and in tune with your best
|
self . Yes , three . There is no room for stinginess here .
Now , bring your mind into the present . Who is currently a part of your life that you can genuinely say : “ I wouldn ’ t have missed the experience of you for the world .” What opportunities or tasks are you presently involved in that you can honestly say : “ I wouldn ’ t have missed the experience of doing this for the world .”
If you can discover just one person , one task , or one experience that you accept wholeheartedly , you can recalibrate your attitude and increase your capacity to love yourself and your life . You can immediately repair your connection to your life ’ s basic goodness and rightness .
Simply admitting and embracing even one full , clear , yes moment can naturally and fully open you to the opportunity to own the following important , basic truths .
Every single event and experience you have had the fortune or misfortune to have had to happen exactly when , where , and how it did so that
|
you would be in the right place to meet that special person , land that ‘ I was made for this ’ job , live in your personal paradise , birth the baby , idea , business , or relationship that infuses your life with love .
When you find yourself impatient with life , numbed by the mundane , and longing for the magic of synergistic life events , take a deep breath and remember this : What you are seeking is also seeking you .
Secondly , if we are honest with ourselves , it is easy to get in the way of positive change because we become over-zealous in our quest to improve our lives .
To counteract demands that life do your bidding , adjust your ability to be open , accepting and receptive because a deeper truth is that life always makes the first move . Happy Valentine ’ s Day 2024 .
