The other day a friend was telling me that instead of greeting his neighbour with the usual, "How's life treating you?", it accidentally came out, "How are you treating life?". It's amazing how just turning a phrase around allows me to see things in a different light. It reminded me of the famous JFK statement, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country."A simple turn of phrase, or thought or attitude can shift my thinking, and in that there is freedom. It redirects my inward thoughts back to where they belong, outside of myself. When I'm in that frame of mind, my world instantly brightens and realigns itself with absolutely no effort from me.
