Allan the late Wayne Dyer used to talk about "synchronicity". When your life and head are in the right space good just begins manifesting in your life. You even get "luckier". Insignificant things like traffic lights start favoring you, that unexpected check comes in the mail to rescue your budget. I guess Christians would prefer calling it "Divine Providence".
Whatever you call it your Meditation today addressed something that has arisen in my life, how do I handle all this synchonicity and change.
I was thinking of making my own Ten Commandments but that's pompous. Today I realized I need to quanitfy and qualify my PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY. It is and will remain a work in progress but your Mediation has me off to the races.
Some things I believe...1)There is no more personal relationship than that of a human being to their Creator. I choose to respect everybody's beliefs completely, regardless of whether I share their beliefs. I do not have to convert them nor do I have to let them pound me with guilt if I choose a different path than them.
2.) The worst lies you tell are the lies you tell yourself.
As you can see it's an effort in it's infancy but I feel certain it'll continue to grow in no small part thanks to Journaling after Meditations and throughout the day.
And all of this change has been sometimes difficult, sometimes challenging, but always very satisfying. Change always requires effort and patience and I now have it.
One of the affirmations before I sleep...I trust the Universe to provide guidance to lead me to the greatest good.

Qualifying your personal philosophy seems like a very worthwhile endeavour Robert. You might find this post I wrote for Classical Wisdom helpful:

It's about how Stoicism can help us recognize our roles in life and get to know ourselves better.
Philosophy is not a menu of beliefs. It’s your go-bag when life gets unpredictable.
Quoting Seneca is easy; surviving Mondays with grace is the real art.
📌 The best philosophy is less “worldview” and more “emergency manual.”
