Today's quote:
When you reach for the thought that feels better, the Universe is now responding differently to you because of that effort. And so, the things that follow you get better and better, too. So it gets easier to reach for the thought that feels better, because you are on ever-increasing, improving platforms that feel better.

All Is Well

When you deliberatly start to feel good, sometimes you have to make a definite effort and focus and concentrate, and think the thoughts that will bring the feelings, and spend some time until you reach the state of being you're looking for. After the deliberate effort, the process becomes more like a routine that you do not do so deliberatly but automatically. It's more like brushing your teeth. You don't have to give much thought to it, you do it on autopilot. The way it is meant to be. Easier. Faster. The better it gets the *easier* it gets.
After practicing this for a while, it becomes second nature. You just feel good for no reason. It is easier to identify the moments when you don't feel so good, because feeling not-so-good is not natural anymore. And it is also easier to get back to your *natural* state of being. Of feeling good.
That's why sometimes after you start the process you feel that negative emotion feels so bad! Now you can read it better. It's not part of you. It's not who you are. Ahhh, it's so good to feel good!
I am in love with life. I can see that for the last 4 years my life just gets better and better and I can't help but wonder where it is taking me now. What adventures are ahead of me? what wonderful friendships? what awesome destinations? It is so good to know that even though I have not seen the movie, I know the end is a happy one.
I am in love. I am in love with ME and life. My life. My little universe that I've created. it's gotten so much better that it keeps getting so much better. It's a circle. A vicious one. Non stop. It gets better then it gets easier and better. And because it got easier, it gets better. And...you get my point.
Anyway, this quote makes so much sense to me. I see it everyday in my life.
Ahhh, it feels so good to talk to you guys! For years I've been wanting a soul-mate that could understand me and my rampages and my books and my way of thinking...and then I find this forum...so good...so delicious...so mine.
I love you all,
Isabel
