There are things in this world that I don't like, just as anyone else. But I'm learning that when I SAY I don't like something, for example snow, I'll ask myself if I really don't like it. Is it truly because it's cold and being cold makes me shiver too much and I don't like shivering? Although that may sound like good reason to not like snow, it is only ONE reason.
NOW, when I think of the reasons I do like snow, I can actually think of more than one! Snow ☃ usually means a snow day. A free day to play outside with my kiddo and build a snowman☃ and snow angels ❄️together that create memories for a lifetime. I like the way snow makes everything appear brighter....as if God painted everything white. When it snows during Christmas 🎅🏼 time, I can smell it in the air; cold and crisp and it smells divine. I have a reason to wear my favorite jackets, scarves and boots! 👢👢 And without snow, there would be no definitive seasons.
What I've learned is not a fact that I don't like something. It's what I've TOLD MYSELF I don't like and believed it. Once I believed it, it stuck. And what stuck is what I told people.
The most wonderful thing about being human is that we are ever evolving. Always changing before our own eyes. If we stop for a moment and take a step back to reassess our own beliefs, we create what is called a paradigm shift. And a shift in our minds is what helps us become truly who we were meant to be!
