goodthingsthathappenedtoday
Hi my name is Amy. I am originally from the States both South Carolina and California, blessed to have lived on both of those beautiful coasts and even more lucky now to be across the pond on the other side of the world in Sydney, Australia! I am an EFT practitioner, love the ocean, the arts and blogging of course!
The idea for this blog was born out of the logging onto my Yahoo account daily and seeing countless negative stories amplified. Because I love to read I would get sucked into these stories and be dragged down by all the negative weight in the world on a daily basis.
We are given a grossly distorted perspective of our world because so many depressing world events exaggerated and blasted in our faces. In the past, humans lived in small communities and our psyches were not subjected to the ills and upsets that are happening through out the world. We are not meant to take on the burden of the world in such a large way. When we constantly hear about every negative thing happening we start to feel despair and hopeless. This is not the way we were meant to live! It is so important to remember as well that the media has to make money and get numbers to sell advertising. I’ve heard that sometimes they will pay ‘protesters’ money to hold wave signs and look angry when really nothing is going on at all, or they are making it worse than it really is.
My vision is not to put my head in the sand and ignore the tragedies but to also really acknowledge the amazing blessings that we have right in this moment that are happening everyday.
This blog is a chance for everyday people to share the beauty that is happening right now all the time in front of us. It doesn’t have to be the most heroic event, it could be a simple haiku of looking out your window and seeing a tree gently swaying in the wind, or a dog looking at you with endless love in his eyes. Or the fact that everyday in our communities we are getting along and connecting with one another. The more positive stories that we put out and share the more we can get inspired and feel the love that is always with us. Each time we focus on the positive we further imprint those vibrations in ourselves and that ripple effect goes outward. The love starts from within us and goes out to our families our friends and everyone we meet.
This website is a forum for simple positive stories and amazingly large ones as well. What is important is that we acknowledge the love the light the laughter that is with us all the time. It is like a gratitude journal that you share with the world. The more of a habit you make it the more amazing blessings you will are happening in your life everyday!
