In 2022 I wrote about using positivity and personal mantras to change the reality of my life. Later that same year I gave an update about the outcome of using the mantra “best year of my life,” every day.
The fall of that same year is when I started to become sick with Mercury poisoning, but didn’t yet know that’s what it was. By early 2023 I was barely functioning it was so severe. And with any kind of major disruption in life (sickness, loss, divorce, etc) it’s so easy to throw out healthy rituals and habits.
That’s what happened for me, and I’d honestly forgotten about “the best year of my life.”
Until the other day, when I mentioned, “the best day of my life,” and my brain turned back on to remind me of that old mantra that served me so well.
So I’ve been using it since then, only a few days now. But it feels so genuine.
The Best Day of My Life is always today.
I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.
Alan Watts
Remembering is such a wonderful thing.
