Prosperity in 2009
By Amir Zoghi
The beginning of the New Year, it’s that special moment in time where we reflect on what has just been or what could have been but no matter what we see for the future we can’t help but to have greater hope for the new year of 2009.
Maybe this year will be different with more love, more success and more happiness? Every year we seem to go through the same ritual where we make New Year’s resolutions for a change to a bigger, better and more prosperous life! We want to arrive at the end of 2009 and reflect back at the year with the positive changes that we have made.
Although I am a supporter of having hope for the future, I’m more of a believer of acknowledging and appreciating what life offers in the present moment. Most would say that it is important to have goals and ambitions for the future; I say it is more important to appreciate and acknowledge what you have today. Most would say it is important to know what you want; I say it is more important to know what you can give and who you are.
Prosperity isn’t about how much material possessions you have accumulated or the security pillow you have built. Nor is it your status or the success you have attained. Prosperity isn’t about what you have to do to change or improve your life; it’s about acknowledging and embracing your life. Acknowledging what you have to be appreciative for right now and embracing all that you are right now. Prosperity is finding what you have to give and not securing what you ‘think’ you need.
To be prosperous is to be the person that you are, not the person that you think you need to become. It’s about finding what you have to offer others and not what others have to offer you.
Hope is only needed by those who are looking at what they can gain from the world. Prosperity is experience by those who are looking at what they can give to the their world.
Don’t you tell me that you have nothing to give. A person that thinks that they have nothing to give is a person that is only looking for what they can gain. You can give a smile, you can tell someone that you love them; you can share this message with someone. You can even forgive or be just be completely open and present when someone is talking to you.
We have all felt at sometime in our lives the feeling of being prosperous. It was the same time when you were giving something, being there for someone or simply being here completely in the present moment. That is being prosperous, I wish you a prosperous 2009!
With my deepest love,
