A New Spiritual & Intuitive You – Day 21

In fact, we often worry so much about the future, we wish we knew what was going to happen before it does.  Many times I have clients who just want me to predict the future for them.   But, if you think about it, it probably doesn’t help you to know your future, and if you did, it wouldn’t decrease your worrying.  If you knew good things were coming to you, you would feel relieved.  If you knew bad things were coming, you’d just worry more about how to avoid it, or worse, feel that you’re doomed.  At the same time, you wouldn’t be you if you could avoid them, because those challenges we faced in life often help make us stronger and or show us the better course to take.

Often times, we don’t really know what makes us happy.  When we go to a place or an event that we think will make us happy, and we’re a little disappointed because it didn’t live up to our expectations.  To truly know what things make you happy, one needs to notice when we are happy and recognize the deep feeling of contentment or bliss as it is happening.  Have you ever gone on vacation and rushed through it so quickly, that later you realize you have enjoyed it more in your memory, rather than when you were there?   The only way we can truly recognize our deep feelings of happiness is when we are fully present and aware of it, as we are experiencing it.  When we are able to be in the moment, and only be aware of how we are feeling right now, can we recognize what makes us happy.
