Power & Mood

Your Power is in Your Mood

I woke up this morning with a new beautiful feeling, the dawn’s prayer at its time is heaven, I went to the fridge to drink orange juice to revive my body, and to get my need of vitamin C for today, I kissed mama’s head, I took deep breathes, and I took papers and a book to charge my mind, and to prepare to the workshop ”your writing, is your personality” that I’m going to present to enjoy the excitement, when you put yourself in the production circle, all your actions become interesting and amazing for yourself. I love the adventure in experiencing myself in everything new, unusual, and beyond reasonable things, to feel that you are still alive like a green poem, that blossoms flowers with amazing colors, and people gather around you, you irrigate yourself in this world, you are responsible of the flowers in your mind’s lawn, aren’t you? Because I don’t think you can hire someone to water an orchard in your mind.

Nine a.m., I bought a note book from a shop, in the payment queue; in front of me was a Japanese woman, she had finished paying and it was my turn, I was not totally awake yet, I paid and I went to drink my coffee, and as usual, the coffee kills the bacteria of my mind, the coffee’s smell awakens my mind. I enjoyed being with myself, whom I complimented with a reading from a book, and taking some notes until a story jumped in to my head about a farmer who discovered that there, in the valley beside his cottage, are diamonds. So I wrote my imaginary story, where my imagination dragged me to write four pages, I smiled and decided to leave the coffee shop, and to go back to the shop to buy something.

The clock indicating to 12 p.m. and in the payment queue, there was the same Japanese woman, in her long Scottish skirt, I wondered, the woman left, and it was my turn, I said to the Lebanese cashier:

-“Same scene in a different time, isn’t that great?”

-“And what is great about that?”

-“Same scenes in the same places, but time differ”

-“And what’s exiting about that?”

-“The mood sir, when I was here at the first time, my mood was sleepy, where now my mood is up and positive, and excited to end this day well!”

- (He smiles)”Nice, and what have awakened your mood?”

-“Doing what you love to do”

We smiled and I left, yes love, to do what makes you happy, and adds joy to every detail and minute in your day, changes your mood, and your perspective to the things around you, no matter what, you are sad, distressed, depressed, and you did something you love to do, that tempted your feelings, and charged your brain; the negative energy will transfer in to a positive one, and that what I meant when I wrote “ Charge yourself” article.

You must know what charges your soul, mind, heart and body, like reading a book, writing your diaries, praying your prayers at their times, listening to a soft classical melody, drinking coffee or enjoying your ice cream.
