I awoke today with an overwhelming sense of gratefulness. I was smiling and dancing in the shower. I couldn't believe how differently my mood was today versus say the last week. As a small business owner I am constantly chosing to stay in the postive mode inspite of all I hear in the media. Well, the over looming financial crisis entered my personal life in a new way yesterday evening at the dinner table. I asked my sweet partner Carlos when he would be travelling overseas for work and he said the projects are being pushed back due to the economy.
That was my first thought this morning and I decided to chose that anything is possible instead of worry what may happen down the road. Today is a marketing day. I am out in the cities of Silver Lake and Echo Park to leave flyers and hopefully make connections. As I was driving down the road on a extremely beautiful day. I noticed anew a familiar site. On the corners one can often see men selling whole coconuts with straws...coconut milk...yum, mango slices, water, or flowers.
I thought to myself. This is what I love about LA. Anything is possible. Who knew the sun would shine so brightly today. Those men on the corner smile each day as if the whole world is just perfect. This was a shift for me as before when I drive down the road and see these men on the corners I felt saddness...why? Good question. But this time it was different. Anything is possible, Saturday I can have 10 to 20 clients at my workshop and make a connection that will support both Mary Jo--my business partner and ayurvedic practioner or for Judy Fuller another Svaroopa® Yoga teacher or even a connection for myself...anything is possible and as long as I choose the positive the sun will shine brightly and I will smile everyday like the men on the corner knowing that everything is perfect.
