[Tweet “We would all be dancing from the center of our own passion. #seekjoy”]
#affirmation Today I’m answering a question posed by Amethyst Mahoney in her Spiritual Badass blog challenge.
“If you were in charge of things, what would the World look like?”
Joy. That’s what the world would look like if I were in charge. JOY.
There would be rewards for those who made it their life’s work to bring happiness to others. I have so many things in my head that it is hard to get them all out.
Things like…could we end world hunger if everyone who had enough to eat went without one day a week? That they sent the money they would have spend on food for that one day to some place where there isn’t enough food.
Things like…could we end wars if everyone agreed to the basic fact that we can all worship who we like? What would happen if the Protestants and the Catholics agreed to that? The Jews and the Muslims? The Christians and everybody else? Can you imagine a world where we don’t say, “Oh she’s not a member of our church” as if it were a slur?
I can.
I work daily to remind people, to teach people, to exhort people to seek joy.
This Explorer of Fire is the perfect example of what the world would look like. We would all be dancing from the center of our own passion. We would move through life knowing that what we said and did affected others. We would understand our place in the Universal web.
And we would live as though we mattered.
Today’s affirmation:
I matter. I am important. What I do is sacred. What I think is precious. I choose to live an intentional, authentic life. Loved and loving, I love each of you. Seek joy, y’all. Pass it on.
By the way, have you listened to this month’s TarotCopes podcast? There’s a contest that end 8/15.
