OK I admit that I live each day in my pink bubble. I TRY not to watch news or stock market or listen to all negative talk. If I happened to do it - I feel drained; it literally sucks energy out on me and by the time I am ready for bed..I am out. No wonder so many of us have sleep problems; or rather "no-sleep" problems or wake up in the morning wiped out and dread facing another day.

I believe that one becomes like the five people he/she hangs out with all the time. We inevitably absorb the environment like the sponge and become it; all tense, upset and negative. It's a human nature. All we hear everywhere is: "in this hard economic times" and watch it magnified on our ginormous TV screens screaming doom and gloom; what can one do?

How does one stay happy, at ease and positive?

My solution works for me. I get up in the morning and look in the mirror and say: I love myself. I am at ease. I am healthy, I am wealthy, I am happy, I am loved. I am grateful for my family and all the gifts I am given. I am hopeful, I invite Lord to be with me this day, I pray for a good day. I take care of my spirit, my mind and my body. I don't do it because I am vain. I do it for survival and sanity. Besides, if you don't love yourself, how can you love another human being? I love myself, therefore I surround myself with a pink bubble to protect myself from dis-ease and fear. I shut that little voice in my head that says...what about this and what about that? How will you be able to pay your bills? What about the holidays and the gifts? How will you do it? It isn't easy. The only way I can do it is to stay in the present moment; in the NOW. Fear is the opposite of faith. I plop myself in a positive pink bubble filled with faith, hope and unlimited possibilities that caries me through the day. 

How about you?

 How do you do it?  

I invite you to share some positive thoughts and inspire others. Being inspired, means being In-Spirit...to be in vibration with the higher power. How do you stay positive and inspired?

I'd love to hear from you?
