SUNDAY APRIL 4, 2010

GOOD MORNING!

Just look up! We are often told, that in life you need to look around you for the answers. The faithful tell us to look up for inspiration, we are not to look backwards, because that is the past and we should live in the present. And of course you do need to look forward to see your real life.

But I am here to tell one and all, and not be arrogant, you need to look inside. The clues may be around you, but the answers are inside you. Maybe deep inside, but none the less that is where your truth resides. Truth is another of those oddities of life, we all seem to have it, and we are certain that ours is the real thing as it were. What do you think? Is my truth your truth, is the person next to you the holder of the Grail. Does the next book you read hold the key to your life's wants, needs and desires. I think not, in fact you could say with a high degree of certainty, that the only real truth (other than 2+2=4), is what you know, or what you feel is right, and then it is only right for you.

I would posit that your life's experience dictates your truth and understanding of your world. It is this perspective or view that colors what you see and what it ultimately means. So what I am saying is this, be comfortable in your convictions, feel certain of its outcome, just remember what is good and relevant for you, couldn't possibly be right for your spouse, mate or best friends. Sure you share a common background, shared values and similar experiences, but the way you view them are entirely different, it couldn't possibly any other way.

So please enjoy the weekend with your loved ones, or even just by yourself. Talk, take a walk, or read that book you have been trying to start. Try to suspend judgement for at least an hour, then do it for another hour and see where this goes. Just know in your heart of hearts that you are valued, you are loved and you matter. What any emptier place this world would be without you.

Have a joyful day,
Robb
