Daily Affirmations: I Am Not My Circumstances

Today, I re-mind myself that I am not my circumstances. Circumstances can weigh us down and cause us to feel as though our lives are filled with burdens and bad luck. So it is important to remember that these circumstances are temporary.

I choose to be happy in my life, despite my circumstances. I choose to live in the moment and find instances of grace and joy in the now, despite my circumstances. Circumstances will change, and yes, sometimes things will get worse before they get better, but I am not my circumstances. I am empowered in the knowledge that I am not my circumstances. As surely as bird will take flight, my circumstances will change.  Namaste… Pamela

Update A response I wrote to a comment on Facebook about this affirmation: “It is so easy to feel sorry for ourselves when we are stuck in crappy circumstances, but even when we are stuck there, we have moments when see that life if good.

Those are the moments that lift us up!
