Quote

The plain fact is that if you don't have a problem, you create one. If you don't have a problem you don't feel that you are living.

I had a teacher of mine say, “Bitching is Braging!”  It is an interesting concept. We love to complain because it is a socially acceptable way to get people to see what you are doing and how hard you are working. It is that old phrase: “The squeeky wheel gets the grease.” We stress out about our struggles and complicated lives but at the same time there is a part of us that loves it and thrives in a particular type of drama. Each of us is attracted to a particular style of drama and we seem to consistently screen the environment for that frequency and pattern. We are habituated to our routine. Perception is an interesting thing. If we look hard enough for something we will find it.

Ask yourself the question, “What would I do if today there was not a problem to solve?” How would that make you feel? We often think that we are going to enjoy it. When I have enough money I will take a break. But then you have enough money and still you are driven to find something else.

When I finally got in touch and learned to love the part of myself that loves intensity and loves the complications of life, then I found a different type of peace. Being alive means that there will always be another situation that we will have to adapt to, whether that is aging, work upgrades, or children leaving home. Life is about adapting. Perhaps we create problems to keep on our toes and to not become complacent. Live a full and productive life but you do not need to add drama into the mix. It is already part of the equation.

Numerology for 1/22/14

Today is the number 3. The number 3 loves the ups and downs, the wild swings of life, and the surprise of change. So today is the day to roll with the punches, enjoy the insanity, laugh or cry, because it is all your choice. I like to think of the number 3 day as the Monsters Inc movie. They believed that scaring children would produce the most energy but in reality laughter did. When you want to throw your hands into the air and collapse under the pressure, instead take a breath, step out of this movie, observe it from a more detached view and laugh at yourself. I think to myself, “Oh, god, just look at what my poor angels have to put up with. I could make their day really tough or I could relax and allow the humor to motivate my next action.” After all we are such a bunch of crazy characters in this movie. Learning to take ourselves less seriously is a fabulous skill to cultivate. There is a fine line between insanity and enlightenment. Dance the dance and find your own wonder at the twists and turns that today will present to you.
