Are You Just Drifting?

This past weekend I saw a movie that really resonated with me.  It was called, "Warm Bodies"  Some people saw this movie as a "Love Story"  but I saw it more in the terms of humanity.  So many of us are walking through life tuned into a hollow world of television, computer, and ipods.  We seldom look up from these devices to make eye contact or smile as someone is passing by.  We may never even take the time to look up at the vastness and glory of the night sky.  This is where spirit expands itself, it comes out from deep within as it begins to feel that stirring of connectivity to all that is.

We can walk around feeling nothing at times. Just drifting and emotionless.  Sometimes we think it is better to feel nothing than to feel something.  I would not trade all my highs and lows of emotions to feel nothing.  To me to feel nothing is to be void of life.  I welcome love, heartache, sadness, joy and pure bliss when it comes.  I don't want to ever feel, "Nothing"

Many times in our society things get overwhelming we don't know where to turn.  We feel we need to make changes, but we don't want to because change can be hard,  so we numb the feelings.  We may take medication to avoid these feelings.  Sometimes we get comfortable and even despite the fact we may not be happy, we feel secure.  So we sit in place and avoid the spirit as it gently urges us to move forward, to make changes.

We might be in a relationship with someone that sucks the life right out of us.  That person is always negative and won't communicate.  You may love them, but is it a healthy relationship?  Do you just tell yourself it is "good enough"  and you think "It is better than being alone."   I would rather be alone than to be in a relationship that was unhealthy and caused me anxiety everyday.  I would be aware it was my choice to stay or leave.  It could be that door to a happier you is waiting, but your not opening it because of fear and insecurities.

You deserve to be happy.  Don't walk through life like a "Zombie"  Embrace life, fall in love with life.  Love the choices you make and have confidence in them.  Nothing is sure to bring life to a screeching halt more than never making decisions.  Just staying idle and feeling nothing is no way to live.

You are a radiant being, you are much more than you could ever imagine!!  You are a spark of Love and Life.  Take time to wonder, take time to cry, take time to believe that good things can happen.  By all means be the creator you weren't meant to be and FEEL it all!!

Picture the kind of world you would like to live in, then start living as if it were just the way you imagined.  People are kind, nature is amazing and you are amazing!!
