Good and Bad days

When in the past, if somebody asked me how I was feeling I would have said: I have good days and bad days.

But during the last couple of months that perspective changed tremendously.

I have come to see that all days are good days. And all days exists out of merely moments. Moments that I used to perceive as good or bad.

On the “good” moments I have a lot of energy, I feel joyful, cheerful and happy. Everything just flows and feels kind of magical. It’s easy to feel and be thankful on these moments.

I have come to learn that they are my giving moments.

It’s easy to give when you are overflowing with joy, gratitude and Love. And with giving, you can think of offering a smile, a hug or just your presence, cause that is enough as it is.

In these moments I am reminded of the Love that we are by giving Love.

On the “bad” moments I feel grief, fearful, tired, angry or restless. It’s not easy to feel thankful or be thankful on those moments. In the past they often times felt like a “waste of my time” but actually I was just fearful of them, afraid of the pain underneath.

I have come to learn that they are my recieving moments.

The recieving moments ask of me to open my heart more and more so I can recieve the gift that is right in front of me. I really had to learn to let these moments in and break me open, to treat them just as holy as the giving moments.

These moments showed me how it is to recieve kindness from myself by resting, crying and going inwards instead of outwards. They learned me to recieve from others by recieving there love and care when I feel the most vulnerable, naked version of myself. They remind me that I am safe and worthy of resting and recieving.

These moments softened me. They opened me. They showed me the art of surrender and presence. They reminded me to trust and have patience in that what is. They gave me insight in who I think I am and who I truly am.

In these moments I am reminded of the Love that I am by recieving Love.

Both moments showed me that Life is to be experienced THROUGH me.

By opening up and recieving the gift of all these moments, I am reminded,

They are Love.

We are Love.

I am Love.

So instead of saying good and bad days, I have come to say, all days are good days filled with merely moments.

Some moments might feel more challenging then others, but it’s exactly those moments that bring you the gift of surrendering, opening, softening and trusting a little bit more each time in the Love that you are.
