Rise

   I read something today that stopped me in my tracks.

                                                'F-E-A-R has two meanings:
                              Forget everything and run or face everything and rise.
                                                       The choice is yours.'

   I was upset about something and was feeling this cloud of sadness creeping over me. You know when one little thing sets you off? yeah, well that is what happened. I lay on my bed on my phone and this came up in someones story. It shook me a little, gave me a boost to pick myself up.

  This quote can relate to various things. For me, my thought was 'well I can choose to sit here and cry all night or get up and take care of myself and do whatever I needed to do to feel better.'
 I took a shower and visualized my body being cleansed of negativity. Actually first, I sat up and gave myself a little pep talk. I spoke to myself like an adult. I reminded myself that I can fulfill my needs by myself. I can be there for myself. I do not need anyone else to make me happy, I have that power.

  Everyone always says that your mindset is everything. It is true. How you view the world around you is important. The above quote gives examples of two mindsets. You can choose which one you want to go with. I am not saying it's easy, believe me, I too struggle with my thoughts.
  Sadly, our brains default view is negative. That is to protect us. No wonder its difficult to see the positive at times. We have to out-smart our brain!

   Wake up everyday with intention. Each morning remind yourself of how you wish to view the world. Slowly but surely, you will feel a difference, a lightness.

    This quotes sparked many thoughts for me but my message is that even in the saddest moments, you can pick yourself up. You have so much strength inside that you don't always see. Many of us don't even know it's there because we get so busy looking for it externally. Inner strength shows up when you listen for it, when you become still, when you show up for yourself.

You can rise and you will rise through every obstacle in your life.

 Innate well-being is within you.

 Love and light to you all.
