Heaven on Earth

Sometimes, life works in mysterious ways.

When you open your heart and mind to the limitless possibilities in the world and when you ask (or pray, depending on your beliefs) in what you want, slowly, but surely your dreams and visions are answered. There is beauty that will line your journey if you allow it to come into your life. You can fill your life with only the most beautiful things this world has to offer and truly make heaven on earth.

Some people believe that heaven is a place to go to when you “pass on”. Others believe it is a state of mind.

I once was training for a new job. The lady training me abhorred the job and spoke it in every word and gesture she made. She complained about every single thing about the position and I found my energy and spirits drained in her presence. I found myself needing to leave often during the training process just to keep myself in check.

When she left, it was like a heavy burden had been lifted off my shoulders and I grew to love my job. It wasn’t my dream job, but I always try my best to find the best in whatever situation I place myself in. The moral? To this lady – the position was literally her worst nightmare, but to me – I made it my heaven for the time being; metaphorically speaking.

This situation among many others taught me how we can make or create the joy that comes into our lives. For example, if you have to lift items at your work you can feel unhappy about it or you can try to look at it in a new light. For instance, you are getting paid to literally “lift weights”. You are getting paid to exercise and this means you don’t need to exercise as much outside of your job.

How many people can say that they are paid to workout? And, when you take the time to think about it, it’s a wonderful way to make you feel better about your job and it can help you start to think differently about all the little things about your job you might think aren’t the greatest things.

When you start doing this with all aspects of your life, you will start to feel happier and lighter. The joys in your life will begin to double and triple infinitely. It is as simple and complex as – allowing you to let them.

Best wishes to all.
