Do you ever have days when it seems like the whole day is one big problem? The problems add up little and big until all you can focus on is your problems?
It doesn't usually need to be that way. We can center ourselves around other blessings, other gifts, other circumstances. We can see everything that is going on and not just the turmoil.
I'm working on that today. Rather than having a big problem define my day I am working on letting the fun in, too. I am staying open to newness, to freshness, to kindness, and more. My problems are just part of what's going on and they are certainly not who I am. When I center myself, I can get closer to who I really am and detach from what is pulling my spirit down.
Please excuse me if I don't let my problems spoil my day.
There's so much else to experience.
