Gratitude is a powerful tool
that can flip the coin
from fear to love
in an instant.
I have been in a dark place years ago, because I couldn’t handle the fact that my professional dance career was over. This had been the one and only life-purpose at the time. That connection with my passion brought me so much confidence and self-belief. I was devastated when this wasn’t part of my life no more.
It all happened in my mid 30ties, so what the hell was I going to do with the rest of my life? The thought of that was making me so depressed that I embraced the victim role and unconsciously this was GOLDEN for fear to lure me in its trap.
Maybe it sounds a bit dramatic,
but hey, i’m still an artiest,
and I can assure you
that this drama queen
did come out of that hellhole
bright and shining.
I’ll tell ya, when you are in that trap of fear, you have no idea that there’s another side of the coin. You are figuratively speaking trapped in jail, but the door is wide open. You only believe that you’re trapped. That is what fear does.
So I’ve made it my mission to create awareness and show the other side of the coin. I’m an ambassador for that positive side. I’m a love-activist if you will.
I want to create awareness
of that loving side of the coin,
so people are able
to make authentic decisions,
instead of being
manipulated with fear.
And there’s one virtue that has the power to flip that coin in a heartbeat. And that powerful and beautiful virtue is gratitude.
In the 90ties Oprah Winfrey started a gratitude journal. She wrote down three things she was grateful for each day. If it worked for Oprah, it’ll work for you …
So let’s get acquainted with grace during a meditation.
