The experience of deep gratitude. I wish for all of humanity to live this feeling every day as many times as possible !! We must wake up to the reality that there is really NOTHING standing in the way of experiencing (a personal redemption through) feelings of appreciation except for… ourselves.
I have been struggling a lot recently ! Blissful struggle I can say now but while being caught up in myself it is so hard to see outside of mySELF, that every obstacle indeed has the purpose to give me an opportunity to bring me closer to myself.. Even though I am currently living (THANK U HASHEM!) a life devoid of responsibilities and material struggles, I often find myself not feeling the way a person in this kind of life should feel naturally ! So I want to share todays conclusion: happiness is not dependent on your material environment. It is something we have to work for… life really is not linear, not even in the places that it would make sense in.. life really doesn’t make sense ! At the moment I am trying to figure out how exactly life works.. it’s a process I can’t offer any solutions ! Who can tho except for your own self?
Experiencing deep gratitude. Not even a perfect life can give you that – it is only you and your efforts and consciousness ! Even if we want to, it isn’t always easy to tap into.. In order to evoke positive emotions of that sort, I learned, we just have to retreat to a place within ourselves, a memory of beauty and happiness and bliss and.. feel ! Teleport yourself into this feeling once experienced and here you are ! How about remembering a time you were healthy when you currently aren’t? There are so many bountiful things..
Today I experienced such a feeling. My chest (felt like it) was ripped open with love and gratitude towards life and the One who gives me everything ! Hashem I <3 u!! This is truly nurturing, feeling this gives me the power to continue with my day and have a drive to DOOOO! Do you know this feeling of deep love toward someone which flows into the strong desire to hug them.. I really felt that with Hashem.. but obviously I can’t actually hug him like I would hug a person. That doesn’t mean that I can’t hug him though. We can hug Hashem by giving goodness to the people around us.This is a true hug and appreciation, giving back to our creator. By loving (through action which reveals the love) what He loves most: His creations ! It is truly a disrespect to forget all the goodness Hashem gifts us when we focus on what we lack.. Like a father lovingly carrying his child on a shoulder and the child complains about not having a fan and snack on the journey.. Esther this lack of constant awareness of how gifted you are is self-entitlement ! Step up ! Ok let’s do good to the people around us, this way we can truly give back and give Hashem the biggest hug. Maybe even hug someone ! Everyone is an extension of Hashem !
