Wasted energy

There are some things in this life for which we expend far too much energy. In some cases it’s normal, especially if you have any kind of ego. Since we all have ego (and I am not one of those that says we must learn to surrender our ego) we are going feel anger, resentment and disappointment.

Many of these feelings though are brought about because of our inability to see a different perspective. Of course I understand it’s pretty difficult at times to see a different perspective, but it is never impossible.

One very difficult emotion to master (especially if you are a parent), is worry. But it is worry which is right up there with anger and hate that will eat a hole into your soul. And worry is tricky because some of the time it is our love that makes us worry.

If you want to be a master of your worry than you have to have unfaltering faith in two things; you must have faith by accepting ‘the now’ as perfect, and you have to have faith in God (the Universe, Source, Great Spirit – call it what you want) and know the Supreme Being has it figured out and has provided for your happiness. When we start to have confusion on this subject, it is the confusion that takes over our life.

So, in the infamous words of Alfred E Newman start each day with the affirmation, “What me worry?!” You’ll feel much better.
