Power.... Is it a negative connotation? Make it Positive!!

What first comes to mind when you hear the word "Power"?  Is it a negative connotation, related to the thirst for power and control over others?  Does it bring to mind war and politics?  For so many people this is true, and yet the word itself can be a very strong and powerful meaning of positivity and strength.

We each have the "Power" to change our circumstances for the better, let's use this "Power" to help ourselves and others.  Take the negative connotations away from the word and you have given the word itself the "Power" to make change for the better.  Too often we fall into the trap of being dictated/ruled by what society thinks we should believe, and from a young age in school we are taught that "Power" is related to politics and war through history, let's change that mind set and teach our children at a young age that all "Power" is within us, not an outside source to rule over us.  We rule ourselves by giving ourselves the "Power", the "Power" to transcend rules and expected life roles...we are better than that and deserve better, start putting "Power" over yourself based on YOUR life expectations, YOUR goals and Dreams, YOUR passion!

Give yourself the "Power" today to live out the life of your dreams, start by doing something you wouldn't normally do, but wish you could, or had.  Do one little thing today to start taking back control of your life and exercising the "Power" of Positivity!

"The Power of Positivity"© ~ Original Mini Pop Painting

This original Mini PoP painting is based off the ancient Reiki Power Symbol ~ "Choku Rei":
​
"This power symbol is likened to a power switch that can be used for a wide array of purposes. Basically, though, the Reiki means that one's intention always rules over what happens. The Reiki can focus on providing power or energy to specific parts of the body. At times, one can use it as a light power switch to increase one's healing powers."
