Get your Sri on

Not many of us like to watch struggle, unless it's a movie, but even then, we are counting on the right 2 people living happily ever after, the meek inherit the earth, good prevails over evil, the long-shot has his day.

So why do we continue to put on the facade of working so hard, when most of us know that we've had it figured out for a long time, but in order to fit in, we dumb ourselves down, play the work ethic/struggle/complain gang, just to fit it and not draw attention to ourselves. Well, it's time to stop worrying about that and let the attention go where it will. It's time to light the light of a new paradigm - life isn't hard, it's glorious, resplendent, Sri (shree).

Can we let go of our attachment to pleasing others in order to be the person that has the guts to speak your truth?  Do we have the courage to be the person that is having a good day, who enjoys life and isn't afraid to own it?  It's funny how this person starts to attract more and more of what they deem "good," most likely because that's where the thoughts are going.

Dare to be the person who chooses to see the other side of the "bad," aka the "good," because if bad is present, so is good, and vice versa. And it's not amoral or lazy to look at the other side of the "bad." That's perhaps what was meant by the saying "turn the other cheek." Maybe it wasn't a slap in the face, but just turning your head to look at something from a different angle/perspective/point of view.
