GRAB THE GOOD

We made it to the weekend!  Happy Saturday everyone.  Sorry if this is later than usual but I will never get up at 5:00 on the weekends, however last night was an obligatory event that ended really late for me and so being that today is Saturday, I slept!  

I am enjoying the most delicious cup of coffee today.  Funny, I make it everyday but today's tastes really good.  Who knows, maybe it's because today I have time to savor the flavor instead of using it as solely a wake up tool.  Whatever it is, I hope you are having the time to savor and enjoy your coffee too and not just that but the day and the entire weekend especially if you have that bonus Monday.

I like that word savor.  To savor something means to really enjoy it, to let it linger.  There are many things we can savor and even emotions fit into that category.  Why is it that we hold onto all the bad?  All the negativity?  Always that feeling that things won't work our way.  Today's quote is something that can help us, "Grab onto the good and positive emotions more easily than the bad and negative ones."  Simple in thought but not so easy to do.  Drop the thought that nothing good can happen, that you are not good enough for things to go your way.  

You are not only good enough but worthy of wonderful things.  Savor that thought!  Don't go backwards to whatever happened that made you upset because those feelings pop up all too easily and we not only remember the moments but the feelings attached.  If you feel yourself getting stuck stop immediately and remember something wonderful in your life.  Once we go down that negative path it is so easy to continue on the spiral.  

Never go down, go UP!  Way up.  Go up the road to positive thinking, to positive memories.  Don't rehash, relive and worse, don't let yourself get caught up in sadness and the events that made you feel that way.  

Let go, release but don't just say it, reallly do it!  Right now at this very moment, try this.  Remember something exciting, something terrific that you did, a trip you planned, a meal you ate.  What I am saying is that it could be anything and what I am also saying is grab onto that right at this moment.  Feel yourself change!  It really works! 

Hoping everyone has a happy, fun or simply mellow and relaxing weeknd with happy and wonderful thoughts!  ~Love, Amy
