Evolve and become a better person

Happy Hump Day!!! This is a popular greeting made famous by a commercial with a "talking camel". It's surprising easy to say yet so hard to live. During this pandemic, the news and social media seems defeatist and depressing. Variants have taken over and now mutated with flu season. People drudge their way through life working at jobs that aren't fulfilling. Whether working remotely or in the public, folks are sheltering in place in positions of powerlessness. They travel to and fro either with masks or with wreckless abandon, shop at big box stores, and still live beyond their means.  Their children either attend failing schools in contaminated areas or socially distanced laptop lessons. The isolation and revised routine has added to family issues and dysfunction.  Yet, we aspire to do better. We want to evolve into a stronger, wider and prosperous human being. We want our lives to matter. I have been to several seminars which promise to unleash your true potential and unlock success. The bottom line always comes back to the same concept: do what you love to do and riches will come to you. Oprah has many famous quotes, but this one really struck me:

"Everything that is happening to you is being drawn into your life as a means to help you evolve into who you were really meant to be here on Earth. It's not the thing that matters, it's what that thing opens within you."

People spend millions on potions, potables, prescriptions, and physicians seeking some semblance of having a feel good moment. Billionaire goals spawned by lottery dreams and champagne wishes. Well I have some news for you. It is possible to be happy right where you are!!! Even when going through trying times like these, our attitude of faith can carry us through. We are able to receive a blessing in the midst of trouble. The joy we seek will come to us in ways we didn't expect or contemplate.  Our energy will attract the positive (or negative) things that we desired. Do you know how to change your mindset to see the positive? Pray. God gives knowledge freely if we ask.  I have chosen to look at things "half full", and envision the overflow of abundance to come.  That's why I created this blog. My Purple Life Blog is filled with posts to uplift and compel you to live your best life; like the Kings and Queens we were created to be. Are you willing to improve your life? Are you depending on external things for happiness? How is that working for you? Join me on this journey and rise to the occasion.
