An Easy Way to Start Living a Spiritual Life

So, how does one live an everyday spiritual life?   Heck, if I know!  I know only what has worked for me.
And, as I have learned, that is not what always works for someone else.    
I try to approach each day with optimism and excitement.   I am thankful for all that I have – my husband, my girls, my health, my family and friends.  My home, my job and where I live.   And most of all, I am thankful for myself.    I know this may sound trite, but it truly is exciting.    We are all blessed with one or many of the above gifts.    So even if you only have yourself to be thankful for, you are also blessed.   You see, God, or the Universe, or whatever you like to call the higher power, has given you the opportunity to know love in this physical world.   If life has dealt you some rotten cards, you can still choose to make the best of your situation.  It all starts with loving you for the wonderful, unique individual you already are.  You see, God has incorporated a little of his/her magnificence in all of us and we can share that individuality with others in this lifetime. 
For example, start by not  beating your self up several times a day about your weight, your baldness, your acne, your lack of a 6 figure income, your less than showcase house, your lack of a significant other and  start embracing the only you the world has the pleasure to know right now.
How do you do this?   Start with just smiling to another person.   Another way is to just refrain from speaking badly about someone.   Choose to see the positive about a situation and just speak about that.   The negativity that comes out of a person’s mouth is a poison that will come back around to haunt us. 
If you are not into spirituality, but would like to live a more conscious life, you can just start with a smile!

Your angels are always with you…….
