Bummer, your event was cancelled on account of rain. So often it is a time for sadness, but shifting your perspective can save the day. You anticipated the event and welcomed the opportunity and now the universe had another plan for you that day. So what to do?
Instead of sadness, consider another choice. The sadness typically arises when it disrupts you spending time with others. So create another occasion with the individuals, either for the already scheduled time or the future, giving birth to another memorable event. It's like that idea - some of the best moments are those that are unplanned. Take a look at what's most important - the event or the reunion with friends and family. The type of event may dictate your reaction to that reflection. A wedding is quite different than a play date with toddlers. It is most impressive when a bride has the ability to forgive herself and others when something significant interrupts her special day (ex: hurricane.)
Your ability to shrug it off and not let the stoppage disturb you is a direct reflection on how much you love yourself. Secondly, when you keep your expectations low, you have less chance of disappointment. Live in the moment - not in the future. Thirdly, your reaction often denotes your level of productivity versus busyness. Individuals who tend to do too much have a very difficult time when things don't go their way. You lose control of your situation.
When you sweat the small stuff, consider the energy you are vibrating out to those in your immediate circle, as well as the universe at large. When you're standing in the grocery checkout line and it's time for a price check, how do you react? When you are with self-love and positive energy you realize that these things happen and it's not done on purpose. It's an honest oversight. When you are overstressed and overscheduled, or just have negative energy, your patience is tested. Your heart rate increases, your breathing is audible, and your negative body language is quite obvious. The small oversight of another rained on your parade. Would negative energy gain you time or productivity? No. Your positive energy shines throughout and positively impacts everyone around you, including yourself. Whatever perspective you choose stays with you and ultimately impacts your wellbeing.
What to do on a rainy day…simplify. When life gets hectic and events are cancelled on account of rain, make the best of it through simplification. Go back to the basics, be positive, think simple, and be happy. Life is too short to get worked up about minor details. So things didn't go your way, maybe it wasn't meant to go that way from the beginning. Create new opportunities, generate and enhance relationships and communities, and enjoy life without expectation and without guilt. Alternatively, you can enjoy your current friendships, reduce the activity, and enjoy what you have in its simplest form. That alone reduces your stress level and increases your happiness. Isn't that what it's all about anyway?
…in Happiness and Wellth…Namaste
