i'm one lucky duck
Posted by: la_veronique ()
Date: July 31, 2008 09:21AM

lately, i would say that in the last few months,

I've been feeling increasingly luckier and luckier

not much has changed as far as external circumstances

but i just feel like my heart could just burst with joy

maybe the difference is that i've been spending more time doing things that i love

and spending more time with people that i love to be around

it just seems like people are seeming to be more and more precious to me

like, i REALLY appreciate people

and am starting to see only good in others

or mostly good LOL smiling smiley

i wonder why i am so lucky

i wonder why i have such incredible people in my life

i wonder why i get to have so much happiness

i think i made it a point to meet with people who are important to me on a regular basis

before, i used to say " I'm too busy... too busy... too busy.... too busy"

and I would shut people out and just go in trance mode to do this or do that

and i wonder why I was feeling less than optimal

well, something else is happening

i don't know WHAT it is

but its different

some strangely bizarre spiritual force or a confluence of MANY spiritual streams are working towards me

its like David Wolf said in some book... ( forget which, i read too much)

but whatever book that was ( someone help me out here),he was talking about

INVERSE PARANOIA where, instead of being paranoid that everyone out there is out to harm me,

I feel like the entire Universe is conspiring to help me and bring me happiness

so yeah, i feel inversely paranoid and have been so these last few months

i mean, i'm not saying my life is a bowl of cherries.. there are ALWAYS challenges, and hardships EVERY day...but it just seems like I can see the good in others and even in trying circumstances more and more

who knows.. maybe its all the bowls of dandelions and parsley i've been inhaling lately LOL smiling smiley

i feel like this is the best time of my life

well cuz its the present time so i guess i will always feel like that

i tend to favor the present than the past and the present more than the future

i have a little bias

well, it just seems like something else is up

who knows WHAT it is

maybe some unknown planetary something or other

shift is occurring

whatever it is

i think life is pretty stunning, fierce and

oh okay

so this is weird

but in a good way

right after i wrote that post on how i felt

i pick up this book and it is called " The Snow Leopard" by a dude named Matthiesen

at any rate,

he is quoting something from " Tibetan Yoga and Secret Doctrines"

( on page 211 in his book in case any of you connoisseurs of excellent non fiction wanna check it out)

anyhoo the quote says

" You never enjoy the world alright, till the Sea itself flows in your veins, till you are clothed with the heavens, and crowned with the stars: and perceive yourself to be the sole heir of the whole world, and more than so, because men are in it who are every one sole heirs as well as you."

well, I just thought to myself

WHAT AN UTTERLY INCREDIBLE COINCIDENCE!

i mean, that is EXACTLY what i was feeling when I opened up the book and started reading where I left off and its like it mirrored PRECISELY how I felt

can u believe it?

but its true

oh. once again

yeah

if anyone wants to check it out , it is in the FIRST paragraph on P 211 of Snow Leopard

its a fine book
worth every penny of the fifteen bucks i paid for it
it was written in 1978
at any rate, as i was reading this, i thought

there really ARE some people out there who feel the way i do

and i felt like i wasn't the ONLY one anymore LOL :O

Hey Happy chick!!!

I love your posts and you know -- the more I eat raw foods (the closer I get to 100% raw), the happier I am too! And the less achy, the more energy I have, yada yada...

I also love rain -- it's my daughter's middle name!

Thanks for the attitude -- "joylicious one"!!!

I'm tellin y'all!!!

HAPPINESS is freakin CONTAGIOUS!!!

Today was a great day for me. I was smiling in my heart and wishing people happiness invisibly. Strangely enough, people seemed to "sense" that... and they were total strangers that were walking past me as I was trying to get into a building for an appointment. Well, anyhoo... a few people just smiled at me. And here I was wearing sunglasses and not even smiling but I looked their way and they smiled at me. It was GREAT! Cuz its not always like this... i think people are like animals ( like i said before)..We all operate on mostly a vibrational level so maybe they could just "sense" that i was smiling to them LOL smiling smiley

this is the best day of my lifesmiling smiley

cuz i say so!

la_veronique,

This is not luck. You are a cause in your life. This is not chance. You made it happen.

It's all in the mind.

You can be happy or sad. It's your choice.

ss

when i am sad i am genuinely sad and i allow myself to experience that feeling because i think it is also very important and can be beautiful too because it means that there is something or someone i deeply cared about.. and maybe that person is ill or passed away

but when i am happy, i am GENUINELY happy as well
and i will never turn that away if it is what i feel

but i feel like i've been on a lucky happy streak for a while now
maybe the longest in a long time

its like hitting a home run on a daily basis

but hey

bryan

u talk about the law of karma

cause and effect

i wanna be happy so that creates a cause

effect?

i feel happy

if i wanna be sad
i make that cause ( cuz maybe that is necessary too for whatever reason)

but right now

i feel good

i can't see how life can get any better

but it always does
