hight light of the day.

Lately I have been asking myself as i go to sleep at night,

"what was the highlight of my day today?"

I am finding that reviewing the day's events is a good way to check in with yourself and find out if you are truely happy. At first I discovered that there wasnt much i could really call a highlight. Which made me realise, we can be so disconnected that we dont even know that we are just going through the motions, which I like to call "running on the spot". So I made a point to create a good day full of good experiences. That way, I could have something meaningful to have as my highlight of the day. And by doing this I am discovering I can shift my focus on the present and conciously create happiness.

The best highlight so far was when I was cuddling my husband as I went to sleep, feeling peaceful and in love with someone who loves me as I love them. I realised that; what we seek, what makes us happy, is not material and is not a tangible thing. It's simply the experience of a prue feeling......genuine love.

thank you Beverley,
So lovely to hear what you thought. That was the first time i wrote something on a blog for people to read,and expressing myself so honestly.
It was really a very freeing feeling, exposing my thoughts and feeling.
Lately I have been analysing alot of my automatic thoughts, feeling, actions and reactions. And then being honest with myself about intensions and emotions behind my actions etc. I feel like I'm finally becoming more whole.
Yipee! Do you, or have felt like you are running on the spot? wondering whats it all for?

So nice to read. I have just read an article about being Aware and Awake which is very similar to what you've written about.
Living in the now and giving and receiving love is what we should all be trying to achieve.
