I can remember a time when my whole view of life was a "I have to". I have to wash the dishes, I have to do the laundry, I have to go to work, I have to do this or that. You get the picture. Life was a series of drudgery and chores. I felt like this is it, a never-ending list of got to do it.
Then one day I had a message, or revelation that changed everything, I heard God or Source of All mention that "I didn't have to". He gave me the word "Perspective". I have often for years heard words or received visions and dreams. So, I was listening and went and looked up the word perspective. Perspective in art is the art of drawing solid objects on a two-dimensional surface so as to give the right impression of their height, width, depth, and position in relation to each other when viewed from a particular point. That is not what God was talking to me about. Instead, it was perspective to my particular attitude, the way I was regarding my life. He was basically saying, why don't you count your blessings instead. I thought about how I had a choice, a chance to shift my way of thinking into a new way of life. So, I decided to try out "I get to" instead. So when I awoke in the morning, I thought about my new day and my new perspective. I get to breathe and live and have my being another day. I get to get dressed and collect the laundry, wake the children, get everybody ready with breakfast for a new day, and then we all get to go to work, some to school, of off to do chores. At the time I was in a job that I had been complaining about and it shifted my whole life, because I realized my job was a blessing and "I get to", helped me be grateful I had it. All of a sudden everything became easier and my outlook on life more promising. What is it in your life that leaves you feeling like "you have to"? Can you shift your perspective and find a new view, one that leaves you feeling good inside and full of gratitude? After all we are the creators of our lives, so let's paint a beautiful picture, one where we want to say, "I get to". Leave me a comment and tell me what's you're have to and how you can shift your vision. I eventually left that job, not because I had to, but because I saw opportunity to grow somewhere else, and then that job also fell away do to Covid, but again I saw it as an opportunity for growth. It eventually led me to a deeper appreciation of my art and talents and the people and circumstances of my life. Today I get to live in Oaxaca, Mexico and new opportunities are coming my way. Have a beautiful day, Be Liquid Love and Flow where You Need to Go Johanna
