The Importance Of Seeing The Good In All

There is a perceptible energetic shift that takes place when we choose to see the good in all.

Our perception shapes the lives we lead because the universe adjusts itself almost instantly to our expectations. When we look for negativity, we are bound to come across it in abundance. Conversely, we create positive energy when we endeavor to see the goodness around us. As easy as it is to criticize the people and situations that frustrate or hurt us, we do ourselves a disservice in the process. It is important to see the good in all as there are blessings hiding in every aspect of our outer-world reality, and the potential for grace exists in all human beings. When our lives are flooded with challenges, grief, and pain, we may be tempted to believe that some individuals or incidents are simply bad. But if we look for the good in all, good reveals itself to us, easing our doubts and reminding us that the universe is a place of balance.

There is a perceptible energetic shift that takes place when we choose to see the good in all. The unnecessary tension that came into being when we dwelled on negativity fades away and is replaced by sympathetic tolerance. We can forgive those that have wronged us because we recognize in them traits we admire, and we may even discover that we can bring out the good in one another. Though loss still grieves us, we recognize the beginning of a new phase of existence that abounds with fresh opportunities. Each new challenge becomes another chance to prove ourselves, and we learn to show great patience in the face of difficulty. There are few pleasures greater than gazing outward and seeing beauty, wisdom, and harmony. These are the attributes of the universe that help us to cope when we encounter their opposing forces.

Since you create your reality, you make your world a better place each time you acknowledge the good in your circumstances and in the people you encounter. As you draw attention to the positive aspects of the world around you, your understanding of the affirmative nature of all existence will grow. There are few lessons you will learn in this life that will prove as instrumental to your happiness and satisfaction. In appreciating the all pervasive goodness that exists in the universe, you internalize it, making it a lasting part of your life.

Cherie Good Morning,

Hope things are well in Sunny Cali. We are cold today and I have a lot of irons in the fire.
Yeah the month is going by very fast. Mom is a wise woman believe me. I don’t know what
I would do without my mom. ♥ Daughter is doing fine and well paid to do so.

I am thinking of the kids and I will do something special like last year. 🙂

Cherie this reminds me of you when you bake for your friends and family.

@kittengirl,

Top of the morning as always please try to post here if you can. I know you have a lot going
on. I will not start with what I have to do. Tis is life. I just keep it moving. 🙂 Oh you have your
grandson today I just thought of that and I have not been on since last night. Enjoy the
movie with him today and just relax. I have said prayers for you and your family. ♥

@bichon18,

I love this movie too. ♥ You have great taste in Movies. 🙂

Good Morning from OZ! Oh your DIL is visiting I would like to know how that
visit goes. I love it. How are you today? I am trying to keep the thread neat.
You did a wonderful job posting and I want you to know I do go back and look
at posts especially if I made a special place for you. I think a lot of people look at
this thread and sometimes it can get a little hazy to read. LOL! I can read it because
I know what is going on. Thank you Amy for your wonderful posts. ♥
Love you. ♥

Aww, Ray Bolger. Grew up on him singing Once in Love With Amy. Loved and adored the greats of yesterday. As for my favorite Christmas movie….I do not know if this was a Christmas movie or not….The Bells of Saint Mary’s with Ingrid Bergman and Bing Crosby. So touching.

Hi Kittengirl;
It so happens Chloes’s mommy is a fully licensed nutritionist. I asked her about the low carbs. Anything involving lowering your Ketones sounds wrong to me. However, I am very conscious of keeping my lipstick on. Don’t laugh. Give me something high in fat and my lipstick comes right off. That will be my testing gauge. Also, there are lots of new cheating products on the market Okay, I will call them helpful. It is the fourth day and I am not miserable and cranky. Well, not cranky about the foods.

This week I will ask a friend who goes to synagogue to include your daughter in her prayers. I will be sending out all the good thoughts there are. Please know that many of my good thoughts are directed at you. You have dear friends in Cyber World.

Only doggie and people Kisses for me this year. Chocolate? Andrew Lessman of course. Bought a middle strength and high strength and will give one to Jerry each night.

Sheba …. Cherie doesn’t have any more “Kisses” either … I finished the bag (about 15) … TeeHee. I’m glad your Daughter is taking the “heat” in stride. Sounds like your Mom speaks wisely Sheba. Cherie has too much to get done and has to get going. So True, the Month is Flying by so don’t blink Sheba♥ Dear. ….. Shout out to @loaf, and @bichon18 … Hi ALL!

@kittengirl … Cherie is humbled by your kinds words … Cherie worries about your Daughter, but I’m NOT going to feed the worry. Lots of Prayers coming from S. Cali Take Care.

@taci … Well which state is calling your name? Texas, Florida, Oregon, AZ?? So funny, Cherie thinks as much as my Hubby dreams about leaving CA, in 15 yrs we’ll probably still be here … LOL.

@Sheba, I like ELF! The pictures are wonderful. I see everyone loves the latest and greatest HD Jacket and matching pin, of course. I did purchase off her website directly and WOW – what a fantastic job all around. No clothing items for me yet. I sure hope something is left by the time I am ready to shop jackets.

Hope you are feeling better and that Sinus infection is long gone.
Condolences to you and your family. Sorry for your Loss.

@kittengirl, Wow a son in TX and Daughter in OR, either or both would be nice places to live for you. Let me know your thoughts should you visit these places. Road Trips – so how did you know? I am not planning one but my husband seems to be, he wants to check out…. drum roll… Texas – too funny. It will be early March. We know we most likely wont live there but we have to check. We will stop in AZ on the way to visit a family member.

@Bichon, thanks for the Florida info. It sounds like a great place to retire.

@Sheba and @Cherie, Yes to Choconuvo and Kisses. Those Kisses are one of my favorites!
Your family playground and my sons are also the same. Let’s just hope he waits for school to be out before going up the Mtn to Snowboard.

Sheba, your son skates? As in Skateboard or Skating? Congratulations to your daughter for her promotion. Sorry about the others not being happy for her. You too Cherie, I am happy you have the option to work and that you are happy to do the type of work that makes you happy. Got all that 🙂

@Sheba,
Home Alone is my fave because the little boy reminds me of my son when he was little. He was always inventing things. The little boy reminds me of my grandson too because he is a lot like my son! 😀
I also love Miracle on 34th Street and It’s a Wonderful Life.

@Sheba,
I posted to you but it went poof! I will try again…
Love the pic from Home Alone! Not only did it make me smile but it made me LOL! I am going to have so much fun with grandson tomorrow! 😀
Thank you for the prayers. I am not going to go there. I am going to believe good things.
