Have you ever got annoyed, frustrated or angry when someone said to you ‘be grateful for what you have’ when you expressed your fears and concerns?
How much of it was not feeling heard and not accepted for how you felt?
How much of that frustration and anger is actually your inner knowing that there is so much more for you?
I heard this statement a lot
So much so that
It became a cliche to me
Only until I quit my soul-sucking job
Changed the environment
And have been experiencing
What inner happiness feels like
For the first time in my life
Have I got it differently
I have felt much more alive
Much more expansive
Much more fulfilled than ever before
Even without a job
Or any relationships of any kind
But just the relationship with me
My soul
God within me
And a soul and life purpose
I feel belonging to...me
What if
A job
A husband
A wife
Children
A family
Money
Whatever or whoever it is
That you might think
You are supposed to have
In order to call it a life
According to this reality
Doesn’t complete you?
What if your soul
God part within you
Completes you
Once you choose
To get to know it?
That is your inner happiness
Through your purpose in life
A life with meaning
By doing and being what you love
By finding out what that purpose is
And living it
Instead of doing, tolerating and
Surrounding yourself
With things and people
That wither and suck your soul
Trying to practice gratitude
Looking for the good
Within the limitations
To cope with life
It’s like trying to expand
Within the contraction
Where would it lead you to?
Nowhere
Gratitude is always great to start from
But it’s not gonna last
If you keep suppressing your being
And holding on to who and what
No longer works for you
Trying to fit in somewhere
You have never belonged
From the first place
Would you like to go for ‘so-so’ with gratitude
Or would you like to go for extraordinary with gratitude
For everything you got right now
While knowing there’s a whole lot more
That life has to offer you
And striving for it?
Are you willing to lose it all
Everything that is not you
To belong to...YOU again?
It is your greatness calling you
That is the key to your fulfillment
That is the key to feeling whole and complete
What do you know about your soul
That you are pretending not to know,
Denying that you know,
That if you could acknowledge it,
It would change everything?
Your greatness is always there in you
Waiting for you to acknowledge
Reclaim and own it all
Nothing and nobody can stop you
When your soul, God within
Is your best friend
Your companion
Your Home
Your inner happiness
And all you got
You are unstoppable
You are greatness
You are happiness within
You got this. One step at a time
