I found this article from inspiration2go, it is a very thoughtful writing about the magic of life. When you think that things were not going the way you wanted it to be, have a deeper look into it. You might find that things were done in a reasonable way, as if it's always good for you (even if you don't think so). Have a look at the last four sentences at the end of the article below. Whatever it is that you've been through, there's always a good thing behind a not-so-good thing =) So, be thankful..
The magic of INTENTION
Intention is a way to focus, and bring your mind energy and power to work for you in the physical universe. Your intention can be, to be joyful, to gain clarity, to solve a problem, to bring a new relationship into your life, to be financially independent, etc... The procedure or "how to" intent is not important. You can go within and think about your intention. You can visualize it or meditate on it. Any method that brings your focus and attention to your intention is sufficient.
To reinforce your intention you can create or use a physical representation of that intention (write it on a paper, select a card for it, use a picture, etc.) or you can sing it aloud repeatedly.
The magic of NOURISHING YOURSELF
When you give to yourself, the universe receives the message that you are worthy and as such, begins to treat you in that way, in fact giving you more. The essential ingredient is persistence. Don't give to yourself only once, because it is your birthday. Nourish yourself on a regular basis and the results will be beyond your wildest expectations. Tip: most of us lack physical and emotional nourishment, silence and contact with nature.
The magic of GRATITUDE
The bottle of life is at all times both half full and half empty. We've become accustomed to focusing on the empty half. One of the fundamental universal laws is that you manifest in your life what you're preoccupied with. Thus, the more you concentrate on the empty half, the more of it you create. Let's conduct an experiment, with the aim to create a different experience. For 24 hours choose to be only grateful. Find reasons to appreciate everything, and experience what miracles occur.
It's a beautiful day - THANK YOU WEATHER.
Dinner wasn't appetizing - HURRAY! - I can maintain my diet.
The kids are healthy - WOW!
I'm stuck in traffic - GREAT! - I have time to organize my nourishment plan.
