I always preferred arrival to the travel... That said I didn't always enjoy the arrival either... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Precisely, people on different frequencies. I choose to be around up beat people who's cups are half full and always doing something, learning new things ect and generally enjoying life. Rather than the negative frequencies of others. Life's far too short to be unhappy. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Life's far too short to be unhappy. Yesterday I put a few pieces of really nice music on and spent an hour just cruising the streets of central London people watching and matching different pieces of piano music to people/individuals in the streets,frequencies and energies,most people don’t understand but you can spot upbeat people and those who aren’t quite as positive,you just have to tune into your surroundings and read them. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deffo, write from being a kid I've all ways ad a positive mind set. At 16 my mams brother who is a self made man , travelled the world and enjoys life gave me a book called How to win friends and influence people, how to stop worrying and start living by Dale Carnegie. It's an old book, but gave me positive vibes. I've all ways silently people watched and enjoyed up beat folk. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
