Notes from the Universe

"Thoughts become things... choose the good ones!"

Every weekday morning, I wake up to an affirmation in my inbox called "A Note From the Universe."

These little nuggets of wisdom provide everything from an insightful statement, to a beautiful piece of praise, and they are such an amazing way for me to begin a brand new day.

In case I have misplaced it, they offer me a renewed sense a positivity on which I can base my overall attitude.

Some days, it's as if The Universe is actually speaking directly to me, telling me exactly what I need to hear.

These notes, simply put, are a breath of fresh, valuable, HAPPY air.
 I think we could all use that, from time to time,
regardless of if you believe it's The Universe herself speaking to you.
We can all benefit from hearing positive words on a regular basis.

Here are some of my favorite "Notes" that I have received over the last year:

"Laced throughout every day of your life, Meghan, are hidden highways of opportunity, invisible crossroads of time, and golden avenues for personal transformation that if only traveled upon would reveal the extraordinary, the sublime, and the unexpected.  Yet most slip by undetected until there's first a childlike wonder at the ordinary, the routine, and the expected.  After all, it's usually a dirt road that leads to a diamond mine."

  "True life mastery, Meghan, is more a function of knowing what to want, than knowing how to get what you want.  Anyone can get stuff, but it takes an old soul to choose their stuff wisely."

"There is perhaps, no greater debilitating belief, Meghan, than thinking there are elements of your reality that you cannot control - be they fate, karma, the influence of other people, your stars, your palm, your loves, your looks, your personality, your intelligence, your sense of humor, or chocolate. You simply decide everything, moment to moment."

"Most think that perception works a lot like a flashlight in the dark, illuminating whatever it's aimed at. The truth, however, Meghan, is that instead of revealing what's there, it creates it.  Focus is everything."

"It's true, Meghan, sometimes when you've had a difficult day, or met difficult people, been let down, disappointed, or heartbroken, it's easy to completely forget the most important thing of all... you're alive.  And you will be really happy again."

via

  "Did you know, Meghan, that it's perfectly OK, even highly ideal, to claim all is well amongst doubt and confusion? To be happy in spite of challenges? To laugh at problems? Dance without a partner? Sing without a rhyme? Talk to inanimate objects?  Go for it!"

"Meghan, don't let appearances keep you from seeing the obvious: your nature is joy, you were built for success, and money, honey, grows on trees."

via

 "What if every wrinkle, scar, or gray hair only made you more beautiful? What if every tear you've shed, mistake you've made, and challenge you've faced, only drew you closer to the light? And what if, Meghan, for every breath you've taken, every sentence you've spoken, and every path you've chosen, your fans in the unseen multiplied?  Well, I'd say it's about time you found out."

via

   "Guidance, attention, help, maybe. Love, always. Criticism, never. What to give others, Meghan." 

And lastly... my favorite--

"Meghan, sometimes, in hindsight, it may seem that your prior kindnesses were for naught, and that in the end, they were too high a price to pay for the pains you've endured.  That is, of course, until you get a little further into the future, when the pendulum has been allowed its full swing, and all the seeds you've sown have begun blooming in more gardens than you ever knew existed.  Kindness ALWAYS returns."

Tunnel Vision

The light at the end of the tunnel is alive and breathing.
It shines, forever unaware of its influence,
Totally oblivious to its grandeur.
Its brightness is fueled by modesty and consideration,
For everyone besides itself.

For some, it is the support upon which they stand,
And the hope upon which they fall.
As it gleams, day in and day out,
Occasionally flickering with exhaustion,
It provides a solemn sense of reassurance to those that look its way.

For some, it is the gratification of victory,
And the sweet relief of success.
As it glows, every day without fail,
Blinking only to shed a tear,
It says goodbye to one dream fulfilled, and hello to the next aspiration.

For some, it is the worship of idols, and the inspiration drawn from heroes.
As it glistens, reliably from day to day,
Wavering just for a moment,
It drives a fanatical passion,
And cheers for its onlookers with unparalleled fervor.

For me, it is the love of two men,
And the continual joy that they lay on my heart.
As they twinkle, relentlessly, oblivious to their significance,
They congest my soul with gratitude,
And dam my spirit with value.

The lights at the end of the tunnel are alive and breathing.
One is my soul mate,
The other is teething.
Fortune has never blinded me so deeply,
As these two bright lights that will never stop beaming.
