There is such goodness in every person. We can easily forget that there is goodness inside of us. Life can seem so busy that we can rush past experiencing our personal self. When we rush past opening up to our inner self, life can seem to control us. We forget about the qualities inside of us that are so positive and helpful. Everyone has the capacity to be loving and quietly reflective. These two qualities help us experience our positive inner self. But being kind and loving toward others and positively reflective through silence and uplifting meditation are two qualities that can be easily minimized and ignored. To gently be kind and loving toward another person help us to slow down and experience the calming power of love. To sit quietly in meditation slows us down and helps us to experience life in a deeper manner. The embrace of love and the embrace of silence forces and challenges us to positively go deeper into our best self.
This best self becomes activated when we remain reflective and when we decide to actively be loving and kind to everyone. The simple way of living life is often ignored. We forget what really works to help us live a life filled with inner peace no matter what might happen to us.
It is not healthy to wait for what might happen to us. We don’t have control over the next moment or the past moment. But we have control over how we embrace the present moment. And the two ways of living in the present moment in a healthy manner is to be reflectively quiet and lovingly active in showing love and kindness to others. I am so amazed at how simple life can really be when I understand the importance of being quietly reflective and lovingly kind.
So often we forget about how simple life can really be. When we become gently reflective our tensions will go away and the desire to be kind and loving become more important. Love can change everything in my own personal life when I stop rushing through life. The more kind and loving I am to everyone, the less worried I become about how the world should change and the more determined I become in how I should change into being more reflective and loving.
Positive change will happen in my life if I take time to be reflective and meditative. The more I quietly listen to the whisperings of God each day through prayer and meditation, the more I can let go of thoughts and actions inside of me that put me into an emotional and spiritual prison. Then my best self can surface. It is not that difficult to experience my best self. But I must decide to practice the simple principles that positively bring me to the right direction in life.
Life is quite simple. But I must decide to be simple. Once I realize this, life seems to be less burdensome and I begin to see more clearly the importance of remaining simple, loving and reflective.
It can be so easy to become too preoccupied with the next moment. Watching football is like always worrying about the next moment, the next play, the next score. Sometimes life can be like watching a football game. I would like to live life in a much calmer, reflective and loving manner. I will keep my tensions to watching a football game but the rest of my life I would like to be simple, loving and reflective.
