Comment on I am a wealthy woman by Gary sirak

Thank you for the mention. It is quite flattering to say the least. I enjoyed your blog, it might be the first one that I actually finished. You are so right about the money not bringing happiness. I know plenty of happy wealthy people who have figured this out. It is not rocket science which is good because that was not one of my strong subjects. It is having passion and a reason to live, learn,and love. Hope this makes some sense.

Thanks Phil. I think the key is to think of something you love doing… and then to see if your mind is peaceful then. Like when you’re playing guitar? It’s hard to worry about other things when you’re making music. So if your mind is calm while you’re playing, then perhaps guitar is your first meditation practice. Appreciate what you’re doing when you’re playing. Enjoy the beautiful tones that come out of that instrument. Savor the peace in your mind. Then later… remember those moments and see if they don’t calm you a bit?

The benefits of meditation are spoken of often by neuroscientists. I have heard nothing but positive comments from those engaged in scientific inquiry. Still, many of us find it difficult. The benefits are so positive that those who have not yet had success should not give up trying.

Oh Ann, I so understand the desire to fling it all out the window. A huge dumpster in the driveway would be much easier than putting it back in circulation by donating or selling. But our landfills are full enough. Good luck with the de-cluttering. Love U2

Su, I think you are aware that sometimes you have to trust the way things pan out for you. I know you are and you do.

These are exciting times. Fast changes coming, I think. Enjoy the ride!

Su, your words hit a chord with me. I’m feeling that restlessness also. I don’t know if it has to do with something amazing coming along, but I strongly sense big changes.

Getting rid of ‘stuff,’ is like cutting all the lines that anchor you to where you are. I am inspired to do the same. It’s about preparing for setting sail by being sure the boat is seaworthy, and that it isn’t overloaded with inconsequential collections of things.

Thanks for writing this. You have me thinking again that there is no time like the present to clear the decks.

Yep! Just when get all that stuff saved up, we realize it’s cluttering one’s mind and space… I too have been ever so slowly trying to de-clutter my house, Su, but sometimes I just wanna get a dump trunk and throw everything out the window into it. Then I (or DH) get something new that I/we just can’t live without… And add to the old clutter. I’m proud of you and know wonderful things will always be around your next corner… Because you expect them to be!! Love you!
