The Universe.

“The Universe is not punishing you. It is not blessing you. It is not controlling you. It is responding to your vibration. Think happy and happiness will come to you. Think negatively and negativity will come to you. What we put out into the Universe, we get back… Like an Echo” -Morgan Hicks

Do you ever feel like the universe is trying to tell you something? and when it shows you what it’s trying to tell you, do you listen??

We make good decisions, we make bad ones, we make choices sometimes wrong, sometimes right… Then sometimes we are stuck in the middle and keep choosing the same thing over and over again knowing the consequences and seeing how it negatively affects us. When we keep choosing the same thing over and over again knowing all too well that we are making the wrong decision, the universe will make you hear it loud and clear, but it’s up to you whether or not you listen. I feel like all through our life we are constantly asking the universe for a sign and when we finally get that sign… we don’t want to listen or we are scared. Why? Because we fear the unknown, we fear what’s going to happen if we listen and move forward in a different direction. We’re constantly scared of losing. Losing people, losing out on potential opportunities, losing and letting go of the past. Now, me writing this might seem like I have it all together and have mastered this. Wrong, this is something that has actually been really hard for me because my emotions like to take over. I’ve honestly come to this realization over the last couple weeks, because certain things have happened in my life that have been too much of a what the f*ck moment. I’m also not just talking about listening to the universe just for the sake of YOURSELF, things might happen to wake someone else up. To open their eyes to a situation they might otherwise just keep letting happen. The thing with the universe speaking to us in moments like this, is it’s telling us we need to make the right choice and move forward in another direction because you’ve outgrown this. It’s not doing any good for you and making the same choice over and over isn’t letting you grow.

Life has this weird way of giving you what you need to help yourself grow and learn the you need it. Even when you might not think that’s the case at the time. Look back on opportunities that have happened, friendships you’ve made, friendships you’ve lost, things that have happened within relationships, breakups, falling in love. All of these things whether they make you sad or happy, happens for a reason and sometimes that very reason might just be to help you grow or learn a lesson.
