New Year, New Beginning of Small Steps

The new year has begun and this year for resolutions, (mind you I am thinking of these 4 days after the new year), I have decided to resolute something different. Instead of saying, "I will get in shape; I will stop drinking Pepsi; I will be more out going", I have decided this is the year of trying to be more positive towards myself and who I have become.

No more putting myself down, or saying hateful things about me or anyone else for that matter. This is one very hard thing to do, but I believe for my spiritual, mental and physical well-being it is a matter of great importance. So, (huge breath in) here I go. Small steps. I know that I am not going to become master guru in one day, or Gandhi in two but little steps count.

Now if only I can lock all those who annoy me away...that would pretty much be everyone I come in contact with so, I better try harder on being positive.

Realization:

This world does not revolve around me no matter how much I think it does. There is always some one out there with a much more horrible life story than mine. Also, to look at each person I encounter and realize they have love, hate, joy and sadness in their life too, and maybe all they need from me is a smile.

Affirmation:

Breath, just breath and let go, it's not worth hanging on to anger, especially when is really isn't going to matter 5 minutes from now.
