Let in the new by releasing the old

This month’s full moon is coming in a couple of days - September 13 - and what an interesting day for it to be occurring... Friday the 13th! I’ve never been someone that has fretted about Friday the 13th.  Because I know that worrying about something only puts attention on the thing that I don’t want, and it is more likely to happen if that’s where my focus is.  That’s really how the law of attraction works.  What we focus on, whether we want it or not, is what will show up for us.  So best to watch your thoughts this Friday.

What is the company you are keeping?

To me a good book is like a good friend. And I agree with Paxton Hood, that we need to be just as choosy about the books we read as the company we keep.  Both can have profound influences in our lives.  They can either uplift or deplete our spirit. I am drawn to books, movies and television programs that include people or subjects that feed my curiosity and enthusiasm for learning.  And I especially find my joy vibration increase when I am inspired by other writers.  Here’s a classic about the very subject of this month’s theme on enthusiasm:

Is “being an adult” stealing your joy?

Have you ever noticed how enthusiastic the little ones are?  They live in a world of no limits, they are curious about everything and get excited about the simplest things.  What a great way to experience life. So why, as adults, don’t we anymore? You might say, well life is hard. I have responsibilities.  I’m a realist.  I’m too busy.  I have to be an adult.
