I woke up thinking about my life. There are so many things I want to do and in some ways may be sleeping on. I remembered the fact that life does not stop for anyone, and that everyday that goes by, I need to be sure to be my authentic self.
In some ways I felt like I was missing the mark, even though for the most part, life is quite good. I also thought about changes that I need to make, and maybe even a dream or two that if I was honest, seemed to be eluding me. “My perfect relationship, ok most happy relationship, am I in it? Look at the changes that need to be made. My new meditation center, it’s just a shell of what I would like it to be. So much potential in so many areas, this is not a test run this is my life!” Needless to say, in that moment, I was not feeling my best.
Then I opened up to a page from my newest, yet to be released book, that I completed at least a year ago. The page was talking about the power of being thankful. I started to feel a little better just reading it. So I decided to put my thankfulness into action. I started thanking God and the Universe for many things. Like my wonderful home, and my children being healthy. I was thankful for my business and being able to be self employed practically all of my life. I thought about all the incredible ways God has blessed me and how the Universe has saved me from what looked like oncoming disaster, so many times.
I was thankful for all my good times, wonderful life and experiences, for my family friends and children. And as far as my meditation center goes. Wow, I actually have one, and it is wonderful, and growing. “Build on it!” Is what I thought. And for the projects that I felt way behind on. I felt appreciation for them and new energy to move on them. I was reminded that this is an adventure. And in my personal life, it has been a great ride and will continue to be. I was back once again, removed from my temporary low. My exercise in being thankful paid off.
Peace and Blessings

Good luck in your travels. Nice to hear that you feel better and at peace. Best wishes, Marcus.
Thank you my friend. Yes at peace once again. All is great, almost always and when it is not I have found that it is a state of mind that must be moved into. Meditation and reminders of what is true and good is always a way to bring us back. Peace and blessings and thank you for reading.
