Thanksgiving Message

Gratitude & Allowing

Today is a day long held in our country to celebrate the abundance of the harvest and to give thanks for all that we have. If you hold the Spirit of this Holiday in your heart year round you will find the pathway to true happiness and bliss.

Today we celebrate abundance, how much abundance do you have in your life? Money is on everyone's mind right now. With the current financial "challenge", we are all feeling the squeeze. I'm no so concerned about being thankful for money because money only represents the creative energy that created you and me and the whole universe. We will always be supported and taken care of no matter where we walk or what circumstances manifest in our life. What I think we should be most thankful for is how many opportunities we have in our lives to grow and journey further down the path of being who we really are. Money comes and goes, but when you get in touch with you who truly are and take action to live a life in alignment with your Highest Potential a joy will come to you that money can never fill.

No matter what your life circumstance you have an abundance of opportunities to be fully grateful for what is, here and now. The first step on the path to Happiness, no matter what you call it (God, The Universe, Spirit, Allah, Yahweh, Gaia, Metta, etc) is to be in full acceptance of what is. That is what enlightenment boils down to. When you accept what is, you do not offer a vibration of resistance and you tell the world with you thoughts that all is well. When you send out all is well vibrations then the world will begin to create for you all is well circumstances. Once you've come to a place of allowing, no matter what, only then can you begin to take action to change the things that don't resonate with you experiencing true Joy.

If you can find a place in your heart to be truly grateful and see that every experience in your life represents a choice between your Highest Potential and life as usual you'll begin to see a bigger picture. You'll see life from a point of view that says "You know what, I'm fine no matter what happens to me, so this obstacle isn't really that big of a deal. I've gotten through worse.... What else can you throw at me life? I can take it; I'm strong enough to handle anything that comes my way."

Fully accepting and allowing what is makes this whole life thing much easier and softer, you can ease into change.

Can you see how much you have to be thankful for? Every challenging moment is an opportunity to make a better choice. Every annoying person is an opportunity to allow. Moments of perceived scarcity are opportunities to be thankful that you are alive and you can change your life. And each passing moment is another chance to choose something different, it's never too late.

Thank you, bless you and I hope you have a most excellent Thanksgiving.

All my love,

Mastin
