Appreciation Spread

When something goes wrong in your life, what do you do first?

Many people would call their trusted bestie, partner or favorite family member to complain about it. Do you do this?

It feels good getting the ‘bad thing’ off your chest. Having a rant or a vent and getting some validation in return.

We love to hear that we acted in the right way, that we are validated in our opinion. We love to play victim.

What does this achieve? It makes us feel a bit better, in the moment. Sometimes it helps us get it out of our system (if we’re also feeling our feelings on it). We might get some advice on how to handle the matter, but more often we leave the conversation just as riled up as we started it.

We took a ‘bad’ experience and spread it, reeling in whoever we spoke to about it. We spread our ‘bad’ feelings around, in some cases, this attracts others who feel the same and create movements that are bigger than us. Think politics, protests and even war.

Now, think about how often you choose to spread love or appreciation in comparison.

How often do you call your bestie to tell them how much you appreciate them? How often do you call your Mum just to say ‘I love you’?

Contrary to spreading bad news, which usually ends up making the people that hear it feel bad too, passing on appreciation will make both the giver and the receiver feel good. Warm and fuzzy.

The best part about that is that it is raising your vibration. Spreading love raising your frequency to that of love which activate the law of attraction in your favor.

So, next time you catch yourself wanting to spread bad news, try keeping it to yourself, feel your feelings then consult with your intuition on your next move.

Next time you find yourself remembering that fun time with your friend or appreciating the support from your family, tell them! Spread love!
