Love

"Love is like oxygen! Love lifts us up where we belong! All you need is love!" - Moulin Rouge. Admittedly, that is a quote that seems to be more leaned towards romantic love, and I want to focus on the more general love. I am constantly surprised by how much love is forgotten these days. How much resentment and negativity people hold for each other. It is so unhealthy. You're only tearing yourself apart my friends. I would like to challenge you all. I want you to love EVERYONE. It is not an easy task. Start small. Let go of resentment and anger. It does you no good and will only breed more of the same. To coin a painfully old phrase, "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." This applies to thoughts as well. Thinking negatively about others makes you unhappy. It makes you forget the happiness in your life. It makes you mean and rude and grouchy. Even towards those you care about. Think positively. So what if they cut you off? Maybe they have a good reason. Maybe they didn't see you. What does it matter anyway? It won't make a difference in the long run. Smile. Let go. Relax. Everything will turn out. And I can guarantee you that as you share love with others and love everyone freely without bias or resentment, you will get more love in return. You will live a happier life. You will find it easier to smile. :) I hope you all can start finding ways to love everyone. And I hope you all can find smiles wherever you are. Peace be with you until we meet again my fellow blog-goers. :)

Relax

So many of the wonderful people around me (yes I'm talking about all the people around me) are so caught up in everything and anything and it's all nothing! Life isn't that stressful! And even if it is, getting stressed and worried about it will just make you unhappy. Being mindful and responsible is one thing. Worrying and over-thinking and stressing until your mind begins to fray is quite another. Let go people. Smile. :) Things will work out. Just do your best and STOP worrying! :D You'll do a lot better if you're not freaking out about whether everything's going to work. And you'll lead a much happier life. Life is to be lived, not conquered. :) I hope you all make today the glorious day that it can be! Smile to others and to yourself as well! Peace be with you till we meet again my friends. :)
