By Gail Lynne Goodwin.
What if the world showed up for us in exactly the same way as we showed up to the world?
In other words, what if we start our day with thoughts of gratitude and only expected good things to happen. What if we see only the good in every person, and in every experience of the day? What if we see only the blessing in every situation?
How differently do you think the world would show up for us?
I’ve been experimenting with this concept and I’m convinced that the world will show up to match our expectations.
Just in case I’m right…
…Instead of expecting everything to go wrong today, expect it to go right.
…Instead of cursing the things that aren’t perfect in your life, be grateful for the things that are.
…Instead of stumbling in the darkness, be the one to light a candle.
The world truly is a beautiful place, when we’re able to see it that way. Each day we’re given countless opportunities to show up for good. Don’t you think today would be a good day to try it and see what happens?
No matter what shows up on the outside, be positive.
No matter what others tell you, keep the faith.
No matter your bank balance, your marital status, or your weight, know that you are a child of the Universe, and abundant blessing are waiting for you. You deserve to be happy.
All you have to do is show up with a grateful attitude and watch what happens. It seems so simple, when in truth, it actually is. 🙂

Hi Gail, I see it this way. If you wish to experience love, cause another to be loved. If you wish to experience abundance, cause another to be abundant. If you wish to experience success, cause another to be successful. If you wish to experience power, cause another to be powerful. If you wish to experience wisdom, cause another to be wise. If you wish to experience romance, cause another to be romanced. If you wish to experience forgiveness, cause another to be forgiven. If you wish to experience safety and security, cause another to be safe and secure. If you wish to experience perfect partnership, cause another to be perfectly partnered. If you wish to experience peace, cause another to be at peace. As long as every body prefer to see this way, our beautiful planet would be a better place to live in, and we are the only people stay as a roll model to speed up the process. Thank you very much for being a roll model and my heartfelt blessings.
