Abundance
Wanting more in life revolves around lack.
Not having, or giving back.
An empty bottomless pit with the air
completely sucked out.
Static bubbles through the space.
But when in lack, you're refusing
yourself for more.
Why cant I have this job?
I hate my job.
Your job that pays your bills.
Your job that keeps you alive.
Of course we'd rather rest.
But imagine all of the people we'd never meet.
The special little occurances we'd never have-
if you never worked at that job.
A customer commenting on your lovely smile,
the compliment that brightened your day
and kept your mouth open as if it were a gate. Allowing people the entry of your most vulnerable insecurity.
Being grateful for that customer is being grateful
for your job.
Live to learn and experience.
Not to one up.
Not to have.
But to live and feel lively.
To experience fresh new abundance
every single day.
Because that is an experience in itself
that we are blessed to have.
And as soon as we see that, we have more.
And it's a beautiful, lovely thing.
