A few times a year, I buy a lottery ticket. Lotto, Powerball, MegaMillions--it doesn't matter.
I just like that opportunity to dream for $1 for awhile. Cheap fantasy.
It's sort of weird, but my favorite fantasy is being a kick-ass philanthropist who gives away so much money to so many do-gooders, that I make a huge difference in the world.
Not a super sexy millionaire fantasy, but it's mine.
That, and paying all the bills on time.
It physically feels good to dream about having a million dollars. Like, things happen in our bodies when we have those fantasies. Things of an endorphin-like nature, and it's nice.
Such is the power of positive thoughts. They can get us through rough and tough times, dark and scary times, and times of uncertainty. Not just globally, but personally.
Big or little, these thoughts can transform your outlook and the way you swim through your day. Keep them in your back pocket, pull them out when you feel yourself sinking.
If you don't have any handy, then go buy yourself a lottery ticket for $1, and spend an evening dreaming. I know it's not highly spiritual advice, but if it's evolved enough to keep you from collapsing, then it's good enough.
Mo' happiness,
Dani
