Bad things

I’m 54 years old and I struggle to think of anything that has happened to me that has been really bad, as in life threateningly awful, really, really bad. Furthermore, anything that I have not been able to deal with.

Yet in my mind, I have imagined almost every horrific thing that you could come up with and not just once but again and again and yep, again. If all the bad things I had imagined might happen, had happened, well I wouldn’t be 54 and I wouldn’t be writing this blog. Even if 1% of them had occurred, then life would have been beyond description ‘bad’.

We can stop our worrying…bad things happen in the mind, which we control. In real life not much happens really…we to be worried about and the worrying stops us enjoy the good.

Turn up the volume

Turn up the volume on your favourite song, sing the words out loud, dance, jump and enjoy every bit of it. Do not worry about letting go.

Watch your favourite film, again and again…put your feet up, grab a fav snack and just enjoy it guilt-free.

Snooze the alarm, duck back under the covers and sleep a bit more. Don’t feel bad about it.

Whatever it is that brings you some joy, do it, don’t think about it, never feel guilty as that will stop you enjoying the moment.

Just be the joy you want to have…why not?
