OPTIMISM

We have a major snowstorm going on. We could get up to nine inches. My guess is that it won't be that bad. We had a doctors appointment this Morning. On the way, there were very few cars and the waiting room at the clinic was empty. On the way home the traffic had picked up considerably. The appointment was for Jamie. She was very pleased as she felt the doctor knew exactly what she was experiencing. She has hope.

I haven't heard back about my PET scan. I am oddly at peace about it; not completely to be sure.

I have nothing bouncing around in my head about what to write. I picked up a TIME magazine when I was in the waiting room. It claimed to be dedicated to optimism in a chaotic world. I leafed through it I missed any optimism. It may have been there, but between dozing off and observing my environment, I may have missed it, besides Jamie was finished before I could read much.

I mention it because I am continually startled on how perception of everything around us changes with our mood. As I learn how to lift myself out of a low place to a higher place I am really impressed at the difference. I can see how awful things can look when we are depressed or just mopey for some reason. There have been many books written on positive thinking. I am sure they have helped but the journey remains a personal one for each of us.

We each need to take our own journey. It seems such a simple concept but many of us resist it. The negative/positive value of what we think and say has crucial consequences when it comes to what we see. We are in charge of our perception. We create our life experience according to our perception. We are powerful creators and we see what we expect.

Fortunately the positive greatly outweighs the negative and we are 'one' so the individual gets help from the more positive thinking people around them. Everything is energy. What we think of as solids are energy in form. When our thinking and feelings are positive we emit positive energy which adds to the whole.

On a global scale the positive energy has been increasing. I know it doesn't look like it. But the craziness we see is the last gasps of the negative energy. Check it our for yourself, the negative energy coming from our idiot boxes is far worse than the energy we experience in the grocery or hardware store. Negative energy has been dominant for a few thousand years. Those who have emitted and encouraged it are losing their grasp.

All of us can help create the world we have longed for by paying attention to how we think and feel. Many Seers are predicting a tsunami of love that will engulf the planet. Like water breaching a dam, there is that last pebble or chink that needs to give way. Anyone of us can allow the tsunami of love to blanket the whole.

Love and Peace, Gregg
