Notice the Blessings (Even if They are Late)
What blessings are you missing – even though they are right in front of you?
Recently, my husband opened a card that I’d put on his pillow on our anniversary. Eleven months ago. He’d moved it to the nightstand and then forgot about it. (Obviously, dusting isn’t his job. If it was, it would be a very dirty nightstand.)
He asked if this was an early card. Nope. I’d been waiting for him to open it. Coincidentally, the focus of the card was about communications and laughing at how one of us says one thing and the other hears something else.
This delayed opening got me thinking. What else is a blessing that is right in front of me and I’m not seeing it? What would it take to see the blessings I already have?
My husband opened the card.
He laughed about the delay.
We had a good laugh together.
His action gave me an idea to write about that will help you.
He’s primed for this year’s anniversary.
What you focus on is what you get. Therefore, the more you focus on the blessings you already have, the more blessings will come flooding into your experience. It’s even possible to focus on the blessings when something isn’t going according to plan.
It’s the same as when you feel bad (and focus on the down feeling). If you complain, moan, and groan, you are giving your attention to the low vibe, and you are feeding it. You will feel worse and worse.
To flip your vibe, start to notice your blessings. It’s that simple.
