What if they balance each other?

What if I have one friend who shares 150% and another who shares 3%?

What if the 3%er is exhausting to speak with because I have to do all of the communication work and the 150%er seems to be only thinking of herself?

What if one I can talk to and one I can listen to but I want a balanced friendship?

What if they are teaching me something?

What if I saw a person speeding along the freeway cutting in and out and almost causing accidents?

What if they are just a jerk putting others in danger?

What if she just got a call that her son had been in an accident and was rushing to his side or he was bleeding and trying to get to medical attention?

What if we pulled back and gave them space and sent a blessing for whatever their situation is and minded our own business?

What if I see you as perfect?

What if having the awareness that everyone and everything is perfect puts me in a perfect vibration? What if you are the most perfect mad person, happy person, naggy person, loving person, complaining person, uplifting person, mean person, depressed person, addicted person, cranky person, talented person that you could be?

What if I became a hunter?

What if I had a large ranch with three beautiful ponds and I loved to watch the 100s of geese land there on their seasonal migration and knew they were safe on my land?

What if I heard gunshots and when I went to explore, found nine hunters encroaching on my land and killing the geese?

What if I wanted to run and get a gun and shoot them, am I then not the same, a hunter hunting hunters?

What if they scurried away once they saw me?

 

 

 

What if I take a 120 minute breath?

What if there is enough of everything on our planet for everyone and we don’t need to hoard?

What if there is enough health and money and food and jobs and cars and fun and water and love and joy for all of us and all we have to do is allow ourselves the having?

What if we know that there is enough air for all of us and it is but one step further to believe there is enough of everything else?

What if they treated me like crap?

What if you had a terrible childhood but it made you the strong, amazing person you are today?  What if the people involved never said they were sorry or even acknowledged the pain they caused you?

What if you practice forgiveness of them because it ties you together in a negative way?

What if you thank them for the lessons and the opportunities for learning and get on with your beautiful life?                                       

What if I’d “better” get up with a smile?

What if how we rise in the morning is how we create our day because one thought piggy backs on the next thought and the thoughts are what create our experience?

What if I find myself thinking mean, angry thoughts and stop myself before I reach the edge of disappointment and begin slowly “turning the ship” to the positive course by finding little things to appreciate and then I am soon sailing ahead in the happy waters of success?

What if he blew his horn loudly?

What if I met an old acquaintance, who had been a pretty good healer, and during our half hour one-sided conversation he bragged over and over about his important skills and all of the money he had?

What if he needed acknowledgment so badly but never took a breath for me to say a kind word back to him?

What if people ran from his monologues?

What if he gave me the gift of how beautiful humility is and how the quiet allows one person to compliment another person?    For Jim

What if I only want to fall off of the bridge once?

What if in each one of our many past lives we have ended them in a different way to learn about various death experiences?

What if I have fallen down a steep ravine, been slowly poisoned, been shot by 16 arrows, had a bear kill me, been in a fatal car crash and jumped off of a cliff?

What if it would be a waste of my time to die in the same way twice?

What if you can’t see yourself?

15563283_sWhat if I was listening to an angry person all red-faced and screaming, describing another person who they felt was angry a lot of the time? Are they not similar?

What if through the whole tirade I listened quietly and agreed with their thoughts and was proud of myself because maybe all of my old anger is drifting away?

What if I am taking my college final?

What if as we get closer to the end of the year, our year’s lessons reappear, sometimes in a tougher form, enabling us to validate whether we have grown and learned?

What if my lesson is anger and many angry people appear on my path but I bless them and walk on?  What if, this year, I am learning judgment or frustration or boundaries?
