What's the good news?
Hope you can see that picture! That is the current progress of my vision board! I decided that I didn't want just pictures and words, so I added a color theme in the background. Purple is for my spirituality goals, and blue is cool, so I used it for my fashion and health goals. I chose green for my finance goals, and red and pink for romantic goals. Yellow is where I will be placing most of my academic stuff. But I am pretty sure that they won't all be confined to one single space area because, like I've said before, a lot of my ambitions overlap each other. You'll see. It's going to be great! I'll keep you posted!
Rain, rain, rain all day. I actually love the rain, especially today's rain. It was like a nice mist. I enjoy rain like that because it makes me feel like we are all just little buds waiting to grow, and God is watering us all! (Hehe) If you can't tell already, I'm in a good mood today.
I got to cook today, which was a lot of fun! I made chicken potpie. They were so yummy, I'm so glad that I got to do it. Can't wait to have my own family and try out my cooking skills on them! (Actually I can wait, but that's just a saying, yeah?)
So my dad came and took me out tonight for my birthday. I really enjoyed spending time with that other side of my family. We had a blast. But there was one thing that stuck out to me.
We were in the car, and my little brother was going on and on about various celebrities and how "fake" they were. While the conversation went on, I sat there inside myself, feeling so very distant from the whole topic. Just a few months ago, maybe even 12 days ago, I would have been right there, talking about it. But my viewpoint has somewhat shifted.
It's like he was speaking a different language to me. It wasn't that I wanted to be distant or anything, it's just that I had absolutely no opinion on the matter. Like whatever the celebrities do to themselves to achieve their fame doesn't matter to me anymore. It's strange. I usually love juicy celebrity gossip. But now it's like beating a dead horse. Mind you, I do still show interest in certain celebs who have held my attention for some time now, but it's on a completely different scale. I don't really know how to explain it. I just genuinely feel more focused on myself and what I want out of life. (And it's not a selfish thought in any way) I feel like everybody has their own way of life, everybody will do something different for themselves. If a woman believes that it is right for her to parade around half-naked on a stage, so be it. (As long as she's not hurting anyone else)
People should not apologize for being who they want, or doing what they deem right (so long as it doesn't hurt anyone else, of course). Every person is different, and in that fashion, different things make different people happy. I realized that today, and realized that perhaps it has meaning here in this 100 Day Challenge.
In so many ways it does! Where should I start? Well this is already getting to be a long post, so I will try and keep it short.
Don't judge other people. Just because you think something odd does not make it wrong. Don't talk about people whom you know nothing about.
Why?
Well first things first, it's rude. Enough said.
Second, it's going to take you out of alignment from what you want. (I learned this sort of from another Abraham Hicks lesson) Don't worry about other people, and what other people want. It's not what you want. Giving attention to anything other than what it is that you want, is only going to draw into your life the things that you don't want! Understand?
Think about it. You want a romantic, flirty, fun relationship. Oh look! You see a couple in the corner, playing tonsil hockey. Tacky, right? I mean goodness, PDA much? Get a room! Ugh!
Look at what you've just done.
You gave your attention (no matter how envious or not they may be) to what you think is wrong. You gave attention to a negative feeling. That 'ugh' feeling (jealous or not) is not what you want is it? The universe gives you exactly what you are asking for, and right now, you are asking for more 'ugh' (jealous?) feelings. So what will you see on the way home? Hmmm....PDA PDA PDA! Couples holding hands! Couples groping each other shamelessly! Couples canoodling in a car somewhere?! All the while, you are still alone! You are still waiting for that relationship, the same one that you're seeing everywhere, to happen to you! Why? It's because your focus is elsewhere.
Switch your focus. Give attention to what you want.
Give attention to ONLY what you want.
