Practice gratitude☀️

I have learned a lot during these years. I completely let go of control where it is not needed, "mastered" being in the present moment, mindfulness, strongly connected with my inner child, strengthened my intuition and trust in the laws of the universe and its plans. Now I am as calm as a Belgian before all situations that happen unexpectedly, because I know that the thoughts “everything is not going as I planned” are wrong: the universe always has a plan, and especially one that I don't know yet, but someday I will know and I will thank her. I practiced how I can consciously choose how to react and what thoughts to stick to, and I know that vibrations only attract vibrations of a similar level, so I came to the conclusion that by choosing positive thoughts and feelings myself, I will attract positive opportunities and experiences. And vice versa. List goes on and on and on and on. But this text is not about that.

After all the intensive 1.5 years of self-healing, when my life is almost covered with roses and everything is going smoothly, I was thinking hmmm something is missing: I want even better!!!!! But then I started practicing gratitude. The first night I sat down and unconsciously wrote down the things I was grateful for, and when I read them out loud, it felt like someone had hit me in the face with a wet cloth. I was ashamed of myself. I felt like an ungrateful privileged white girl (i mean i am but). In reality, I am terribly privileged and the dreams of many of us all reach the sky, we can choose what we want to work, where we want to live from all over the world, what to buy, where to travel for this weekend, and where for the next one? And we all so easily and always forget, almost never remember, that we have to be grateful for everything. Everything is a miracle. In general, just walking on the Earth is not a "self-evident thing". This is a Gift for YOU. Time for YOU. But on the other hand, not understanding it, is normal: it is impossible for the brain to comprehend the value and weight of life, and it will not be understood until it is taken away. It only takes a small comparison to understand: between presence and absence.

I believe that one of the reasons for being unhappy is the constant inability to be satisfied. When it doesn't matter how many dreams a person achieves, he will never have enough: wanting more and better. The promise that "I will be happy when I will live there, or I will be happy when I will have that job" is usually an illusion. After one achievement, another will appear. After solving one problem, another problem will appear. Therefore, I believe that practicing sincere gratitude can solve this eternal human existential suffering. Sometimes you just need to stop, calm down and for once stop thinking WHAT ELSE I CAN DO (!) and remember WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE.

Being grateful will raise your vibrations. And higher vibrations will attract good things into your life naturally. Most of the time you don't even need to chase it. So keep thanking the universe for the people you have and the days you live.
