If nobody's told you yet today, let me be the first: I Love You. I do. No Bullshit. I fucking love you. You are part of the world and i no longer live in a world of fear, sadness, or anger. I live in a world of love. Do you?
Every single day, I remind myself to not judge anyone because i do not know their struggles or what they've been through. They could have had the worst life imaginable and their childhood might have been filled with unspeakable acts that damaged them beyond repair. You never know. So don't judge. Try it. Try to look at the world without judgment for just one day. If you can truly empathize, than you can truly love.
So how do you live a day filled with nothing but love? I'm glad you asked. Start your morning going through a list of everything and everyone you're grateful for. I do it every morning in the shower. I go through a list in my mind of all the things I'm grateful for.
Next, as I exit my door each morning en route to work, I begin to envision the great day that is before me. I actually get excited when I think about all the great things that I'm going to do that day. It's not uncommon for me to get puzzled looks from nearby commuters on the subway ride into Center City. But it's hard to suppress my boyish grin on most days. I envision a great day and most of the time, my day is great. When i face an obstacle, i deal with it and then forget about it. I don't worry about the past, I don't fret over the future. I just live in the moment. I enjoy every day. I love every day.
So just for one day, pretend that you truly love life. For one day, forget about every thought that contains any shred of negativity or worry. Greet everyone with a warm smile and a kind greeting. Pretend like you love them. Pretend that you love everyone. Just for one day....you could be Gandhi.
Try it. For one day, just TRY IT. Watch how everything changes. Go out into the world and pretend as if everyone you encounter is the most important person on this earth, and speak to them with LOVE. Try it for just one day and see how much better your life becomes. One day. Try it. I dare you. You won't do it. Pussy.
Just kidding. You know I love you.
