Wealth Abundance Joy
I was not sure about this weeks song, number 16. If this was 6 months ago, I don’t think this song would have made it this far. I would have scrapped it already, probably through fear of what people thought of it, but as is the policy with The Weekly Songcast that is no excuse. Maybe this song isn’t that good, but there’s no reason it can’t be improved upon and of course it’s possible that I may be the only person who had any doubts about it anyway.
It has been quite a week. Not that anything dramatic has occurred, but simply that I have had some strange and uncomfortable feelings going on. I was able to step back a little and conclude that those feelings were probably there, mostly due to my mind’s resistance to change and the voice of doubt creeping in.
I am always amazed at the mind’s ability to pull me back into a pattern without me noticing for some time, but it is quite noticeable to me how that time is diminishing every time it happens, which is a big improvement.
Yes, I am starting to get nervous. My life is about to change massively, more dramatically than at any other point in my life! I couldn’t be happier about it, but my comfort zone is about to be breached, so I can understand the feelings and I want to accept them and watch them, rather than identify with them. The mantra of this song I had read before and it was only a matter of time before I slipped it into a song because it does make a difference whenever I hear or say it…
I am Wealth, I am Abundance, I am Joy
I’m no expert, but I would say that these three things are probably common aspirations for all human beings. Aren’t we all looking for some meaning and purpose in our lives? All I can say is that the more I recite this phrase to myself, the more it seems to feel true for me and the more aware I become of opportunities to make it so. As far as I’m concerned, even if all it ever does is just make me feel better generally then I’d say it has value.
Enjoy!

Thanks for the generous comments!
I suppose the hardest critic to please will always be the closest one! It’s often the way I suppose when you’re so involved in something to lose some perspective of it.
I always say it is easier to see the whole picture if you are outside of it.
This is why I value and am extremely grateful for all feedback. It’s well appreciated.
