I heard my daughter Jillian call out “Oh My God!” as many 16 year olds are prone to do…especially when it’s not about anything particularly important.
Maybe I was bored that particular moment, or maybe she said it with more drama than usual. I was curious as to what got her so exicted.
So I asked, “What are you ‘Oh My Godding’ about?’
I don’t think I ever got the answer to my question. But when the expression left my lips it brought back an earlier time. Years back I’d tell Jill to be careful - pretty frequently.
One day she came out with “I am Be Carefuling, Daddy!” One of the funnier moments I remember as a parent.
I love how kids create their own vocabulary from the things they hear around htem. Nouns become verbs. Verbs become nouns. Whole expressions become verbs. And of course Intials become words. OMG, isn’t that true! ROFL.
It’s mostly all in good fun, but isn’t it amazing how the words you use shape your own experience? If you use words like can’t, poor, hate, and stupid enough, guess what shows up in your experience?
Same is true for words like possible, abundant, appreciate, grateful and love.
Of course sometimes it’s more complicated that that. Different factors contribute to what manifests.
And sometimes it’s as simple as the words you use setting the table for what flows into your experience.
Mabye you want to consider upgrading the language you use - on others and yourself?
Maybe you want to hang around others who you use the words you’d llike to be the dominant ones in your vocabulary?
Maybe you want to find the golden nugget in every moment…the ones that are obviously good.
And the ones that seem crappy but are priceless growth opportunities.
And the ones that don’t seem to carry much emotion either way, which are the perfect ones to appreciate being alive and full of infinite possibilities.
Oh My God! What a beautiful reality we co-create!
Peace, Prosperity and Dynamic Creation!
