Are You Lying to Yourself?

  
        At first glance, that probably feels like an offensive question.  It’s not meant to be.  It has only been posted to invoke an awareness within.  Most often, we don’t even realize we are doing it!  We get so caught up in our thoughts, we convince ourselves of certain realities and we feel safe staying put.
          How about taking a moment to s t r e t c h yourself?  Pick a topic.  It can be anything from your job, your partner/spouse, your health, or your living arrangements.  And ask yourself this one question:
          Does this___________ bring me joy?
          Sit with it for a few minutes.  Allow your mind to get through the Ego and into your inner knowing.  It may seem scary at first, but trust yourself.  Dig deep, allow any and all thoughts and emotions to come fully up to the surface.  What did you find?  You may be surprised at your answer.  You may discover that this certain “something” actually does bring you joy and you’ve been focusing on the petty things or you may find that you were just “existing” within a certain “something” and something needs to change to fulfill your dream of joy.
          We all deserve the best that life has to offer!  Start on your journey today to living your life of GREATNESS!
