I know this is quite a bold statement I’m about to make but some of us are going about this thing called life all wrong. For some reason a lot of us were raised to think you go to school, get a good job, get married, have kids and then the cycle repeats all over again. But what about the important stuff? What about the deeper stuff?

Do you really think we’re just here to go to classes and learn some stuff – most of which we never need or use in the real world. Do you really think we’re alive to walk around like robots, mucking through our days – coming home complaining about our bosses and our paychecks? Do you really think we were put here to live miserably on repeat? If your answer was NO then you’re already on the right track. There’s very few of us out there that were brought up being taught something different. We can’t blame our parents though and we can’t blame their parents. This is just a vicious cycle that has repeated through all of humanity. Our egos took over and we were made to believe life = struggle.

I hate to break it to you, but it doesn’t! I love being the bearer of good news, even for all you cynics out there. No, I’m not some new age hippie who lives a delusional life of peace and love. Let’s be real – we create our own struggle. That’s a fact. We create our own stress. Another fact. We also have the ability to create good things too you know. We can be loving and share that love with others. We can be at peace and spread that peace. We can be kind and share that kindness. I could go on and on, but nobody has time for that, so let me get to my point. BE what you wish to see in the world. I choose to be who I am and do what I do and write what I write because this is what I want to see. This is what I want to experience. This is what I want to feel. And guess what, I do – all day long. What I want depends on nobody else. If someone thinks what I do and what I believe is ridiculous that is a mere reflection of who they are and what they are projecting. That doesn’t concern me and has nothing to do with me. I spread what I want returned to me. I spread it selflessly and that is what life is. It’s not about your bank account, your social status or your job title. It’s not about how many degrees you earned or what school you’re attending. It’s about who YOU are on the inside and that is the world you reflect on the outside. Today’s Daily Affirmation is:
