What if I make each day count?

What if I eliminate the “time thieves” in my life, those who only talk about themselves or those who have the same situation year after year or those who wallow in their victimhood and choose not to change?

What if I was using their negativities as a distraction for living my life?

What if once my decision is made they all begin to vanish like a puff of smoke?

What if I threw a good chair in the dumpster?

What if I am not really living on the planet but hovering timidly on the surface?

What if I speak very softly, eat very meagerly, breathe very shallowly, take up minimal space, never waste a thing, do everything by the rules and keep small always using way less than my share?

What if one day I stood tall and asked for something “I” wanted and it felt good to take back a little of my power?

What if this was a beginning for me?

What if I am “not” wasting my time?

What if many of my friends are losing their spouses to death and I feel sad that I am wasting precious time not spending every minute with my husband sitting around and doting on each other?

What if he is happy working 7 days a week and I am happy traveling by myself a few times a year and then working and living with him?

What if we are supposed to experience our independence and our relationship is perfect?

What if the 46 ravens on my lawn have a message?

What if my guides and teachers are continually sending me subtle and sometimes blatant messages to assist me on my path and make my life easier and more fun and understandable?

What if I am missing 98% of these messages but they keep coming during the day and through dreams at night?

What if I slowed down, took a breath, became more observant, listened more, talked less and the messages began to become clearer?

What if there are messages in the gutter?

What if I have been noticing dead raccoons as I am driving?

What if my noticing this “repeatedly” means there must be a message for me?

What if I asked for the meaning and got “pay attention” to my actions and my thoughts?

What if we are all missing messages each day and through meditation could find more answers?
