Satisfaction
“Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?” Bob Marley
Am I satisfied with the life I am living? What a great question! I think satisfied is an understatement when I look at my life today; and today is really what’s important. I have so often heard these words “At the end of the night, before you close your eyes, be content with what you’ve done and be proud of who you are.” Some nights I fall into sleep time exhausted from all I have done while other times I lie awake and go over what is pressing on my mind that still needs to be done. It’s those nights that I am exhausted that I can say I am satisfied, fulfilled and happy to be living the life I live. I try every day to do the best I can with what I have and know without a doubt that I am where I am supposed to be in life. During my lifetime I have had the experience of longing to know my purpose and knowing that I was not living it. I have gone through depression and unhappiness, so I do have the contrast to compare the difference in how life feels from each perspective. Speaking from my own experience, satisfaction/contentment are on the inside and are what shows up on the outside. If I am smiling, that is my inside energy coming through. If I am griping and complaining, same thing…inside energy coming to the outside.
Dear Angels, what is the best course of action to take when we are the least satisfied with our lives?
Dear Ones, taking time to know yourself is the first step. Many of you go your entire lifetime not knowing who you are. Sure, you may know the surface stuff like what flavor of ice cream you like or what pizza toppings you prefer but do you know what makes you cry happy tears or what happens when you face your biggest fear? Get to know every part of yourself and understand your choices and then you can dive in and answer that question. At the end of the day when all is said and done and you lay your head to rest for the final time, are you content and proud of how you lived your life?
Dear Angels, thank you. I will contemplate that as I go rest my weary body now. I love you. Namaste y’all.
Today, I promise to always come back to myself, no matter how far I stray.
