God participates at the RIO Olympics

The olympics in Rio have begun and with all the excitement in the air to see which countries will win their medals in  the different games, we forget that each participating athlete, has trained intensely to prepare for this big event.

Katy Perry’s song “Rise” has been chosen as the Olympic Soundtrack and have to say it sure builds up a great fire within to believe in ourselves and our capability for victory.

It’s funny how many of us think that training for any sport is mostly physical but what we don’t know is that there is a lot of mental training involved that projects a successful outcome whether through visualisation, self empowering affirmations or just the simple act of rising back up, no matter the falls.

Our bodies seem limited but with the power of our heart and mind, we can surpass any limitation and produce unbelievable results. 

An interesting thought arose in me today of how ‘God Loves Movement’. The reason for this thought was understood by how many people in today’s stagnant and comfy lives, are having more and more health issues. If we look at Life for example : Isn’t nothing ever still?  The birds in the sky, the flowing water down rivers, the rise and set of the sun each day, the flow of blood cells in our body, the way food slides down our mouths and gets transformed into nutrients for our bodies.. not to mention the movements of thoughts in our active brains..

and if something is still, it’s just decomposing.

So if Life represents Movement then since we are part of it, aren’t we better off getting outside and doing anything which allows our bodies to move? The feeling of that simple action will definitely feel more empowering than the few cups of coffee we trick ourselves to drink in the hope to feel more alive..

For me the Olympics is a great reminder for humanity to keep ourselves in movement towards a better and healthier world.. We are all in this together
