You Can't always get what you Want....
Mick Jagger. What a wonder he is! How timeless are the lyrics to the
Stones' songs? And, I have this feeling that even if Mick has to use a
walker, he'll still be performing these classics for years to come.
"You can't always get what you want"........
If you can't "always get what you want" - maybe that's not such a bad
thing? Did it ever occur to you that by not getting what you think you
want is a good thing? Your angels know what is best, it's your own
mindset that directs you to focus on what it is that you think that you
want. Oh, here's a clue, too: Sometimes when we do get what we think we
want, it really turns into a lump of coal.... it's at this time that I
feel our angels are just standing by shaking their heads and saying
"hey, we tried to guide you away from it".....
Ask yourself - is this what I really "want", OR - do I just really WANT
it because it's so UNavailable to me? Most of the time, it's not
"getting what we want" it's reaching for that which we can't have. The
thrill of competition - winning the "prized trophy" - being able to
tell another, "I won, you lost". Then the games really begin.
Love is not a prize to be won. Love is an emotion, a connection, an
UNCONDITIONAL space. Love does not throw guilt trips, embrace jealousy,
or manipulate. Love just IS. You love someone you allow that person to
BE. If that person doesn't return your love, it isn't a reflection on
YOU, it isn't rejection of YOU, it's merely that person's state of
being. You don't suddenly decide you "hate" because love isn't returned
to you in the way that you expect. Love IS NO expectations.
That's my little sermon for today, folks. Make it a great TODAY - and
a wonderful weekend! And, if you "can't get no satisfaction" - go find
some!
