Be the energy you want to attract!!!
I get all excited when these crazy thoughts pop into my mind.....I often wonder where they come from.
Energy? Not the kind that comes from caffeine or a full nights sleep, but...I will be the first to admit that I respect both of these sources of energy! That cup of coffee in the morning is important isn't it?
The kind of energy that I'm talking about is the atmosphere we create when we walk into a room full of friends, co-workers, or even our own family members. Funny thing, we each carry a unique vibe that speaks before we even say a word. Some of us bring a sense of calmness while others create a spark of excitement, and in my family there are a few whose spark is abundant!! I sure love them all though!! lol. 😎 And then....some of us try to enter the room without being seen at all as we try to sneak off into the nearest corner.
When entering a room, do you........
💡 enter the room with a big smile ready to start conversations?
💡 Do you bring laughter mixed with a few jokes?
💡 Do you bring that spark that ignites the entire room?
OR.....do you enter a room like:
😔 like a walking rain cloud?
😠 always with a frowny face?
😏 like an emotional vacuum cleaner that sucks all the joy out of the room?
I feel like I have represented each of these auras at one time or another. My question is.....which of these represents your level of energy in general?
Here's the secret to all of this.....
Energy is Contagious!!!!!
The simple truth is....What we give out, we tend to get back.
If I want more laughter in my life, I need to try to be a bit more fun myself.
If I want kindness, I need to hand it out like it's on clearance, and who doesn't love a good sell?
If I want peace, then I need to avoid all chaos and look for the areas in the room that are better lit up.
I have experienced fake energy being given off from acquaintances, but I think our intentional way of choosing to be a light in a room is all about what is truly in our hearts.
Our world has enough crankiness, and not near enough cupcakes!! (I prefer the cupcakes with lots of icing)
Our joy, our warmth, our presence, our excitement, our kindness is what the world needs more of. I hope that I can be the kind of person where my energy lifts the spirits of others. I hope I bring sunshine to a world that has forgotten what a simple "light switch" can deliver to any room. I want to try to be the "you got this" in someone's heavy day!!
And this topic my friends just popped into my mind yesterday as I was visiting my neighbor across the street. She may be 86, but she has enough energy to bring light to our entire town.
Energy is always welcomed isn't it?
Shug...💫
Shug, I am so thankful for this post that popped into your head yesterday as you visited your neighbor. My goodness, what a joy to read here and observe your spark! I always leave your space feeling better than when I arrived.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the recent update on Sam. I'm sorry he has to go through the heart cath,but if it's part of what needs done to get him on the liver transplant list, I pray it goes well.
And your positive energy, Shug, shines through your words! Yes, let's be the ones who charge up others with energy and love. Praying for good news for Sam. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteAww, you are our little “Spark Shug!” ⚡️ I just smile all through your post. You have such a gift of positivity in a negative world. I feel excited just reading this post.
ReplyDeleteI think the key (at least for me) is to focus on my identity in Christ and the completeness I have in Him and where I’m not defined by my past actions or struggles, (Thank God) but by the new creation I now am, through faith. As an introvert if it wasn’t for the Holy Spirit giving me His spark, and His energy, I’d be real party- pooper! It seems I lost the spark I once enjoyed after my son died. The good news is God is continually at work with me, shaping and molding me to reflect His character more fully and hopefully others will see it.
I honestly wish I was more like you. I’m too quiet, too boring, too much of an introvert and I’m set in my ways! 🤔
Blessings and 🙏🏻🙏🏻 always
