I remember a time when I was in a sad place within myself. I think I’d just lost someone important to me and I was sitting with my mom as she attempted to console me with thoughts of Heaven.
She told me that Heaven was full of rottweiler pups, little fuzzy brown and black balls rolling in the grass. She said to close my eyes and imagine it. Then to imagine wildflowers growing, bright and in bloom and children laughing and playing. She assured me Heaven was full of lots of sunshine.
Of course, I questioned her descriptions. Why would Heaven be full of these things, mom? Her response was simple: I’m certain that’s what your Heaven will be like because those are the things that make you happy and Heaven is about your personal peace and happiness. It will be full of all this goodness, I really believe, she told me.
She certainly made me feel better on that day and I’ve thought of this often over the years and smiled, hoping that she’s in fact, right.

I was thinking of what positivity could be shared tonight and I again thought back to this conversation with my mom.
Why not take this a step further and into our day to day lives on Earth? Why not surround ourselves with happiness now? Search for what it is that defines peace and happiness for you and fill your life with it. Joyfully share it with others. Make a difference. Change the world with your passion.
Imagine what could be.

Simply… thoughts for today.
