All is good

Three very short words that when placed next to each other in a specific order can sand the roughest of patches. And all truly IS good. The past is behind us and unchangeable and the future is unknown and unpredictable so experience the now, be in the moment and enjoy all it has to offer, because it is without exception...good. We are who we are, we all slip up, we all succeed some days and brutally fail the next but each encounter is a chance for wonder and joy. Life can be quite simple but I do believe we complicate it with worry and regret. If you feel something, say it. If you want to say hello, say it with a smile. If you want to share a kind gesture, do it with love. Take what is handed to you without tremors and without doubt, it may simply be given to you for that moment and in all sincerity without expectation. So soak it up, enjoy the sunshine and skip in the rain.

All too many times we wreck amazing moments with stress, confusion and doubt in ourselves and others when really all we need to do it sit back and accept it. Life is tough, no doubt. There is no denying this fact but if it weren't mixed with sad or tumultuous occurrences would we ever fully revel in the glory of a sweet moment or relaxing time? I doubt it. They just wouldn't be that special or mood altering.

So just keep pushing forward, be surprised at the kindness from a friend, let your insides tingle when you get a compassion filled hug, bask in the sunlight at a red light, let these tiny and perhaps all too few, moments be that energy to propel you forward in your day. Let them be what helps you sleep at night and what you look forward to when you wake up. Let them give you the satisfaction you so deserve and let it be known that you are ok and all is good.
