Emotional Frequency Chart (or whatever)
Have you seen this chart before? (Unfortunately, my website doesn’t support charts - so consider each bullet point a level in the box.)
It goes by many names:

It doesn’t really matter what it’s called – the point is more about how each of the levels make you feel or function.
Over the weekend, my husband and I had a handful of interactions with a certain gentleman who left us feeling better about life each time we saw him. We agreed that man’s outlook on life fell in the gratitude, love, and generosity part of the spectrum as he made it a point to voice his gratefulness for the beauty of the day and the people in his life, and his intention to pray for them.
This prompted a discussion about Gratitude vs. Fear... which I thought was lowest on the vibrational scale, but it’s actually Unworthiness, Shame, and Powerlessness.
We discussed the real-world implications of spending too much time in the “lower boxes”, and how a person would experience less joy in life if they were constantly mentally and emotionally hanging out at apathy or below.
Then, as if to underline and highlight it for us, another earth angel was placed in our path. This lady was affected by the thunderstorms in the area. Her flight took off but circled in the sky for an hour to avoid lightning before being grounded again. Meanwhile, her connecting flight left without her, so the airline put her up in the same hotel we were staying in. We rode to the airport together on the shuttle. Instead of being upset that she didn’t get to sleep in her own bed before work the next day, she said to us, “It’s okay. So many things went right.”
We got in the shuttle, leaving five minutes later than she had requested. At the first major stop light there was a car accident and our route was diverted, taking another extra five minutes. We parted ways with her and went through security where I was flagged for random electronics testing...my second flight in a row! Scott forgot to empty his water bottle, so he got flagged at security too. Our flight crew was late because of a shuttle issue at their hotel, and I realized within minutes of getting home that I had lost my credit card.
Once upon a time, any of these might have been enough to get us to claim we were having a bad day. But we weren’t! So many things were going right!
We got up in plenty of time to get dressed and ready, eat breakfast, get the shuttle, and make it through security. The baby that was crying at the gate didn’t make a peep on the plane. We had a good flight with minimal turbulence and a safe Uber ride home. Our neighbor mowed the lawn for us while we were gone. We made it into the house before my husband’s online work meeting began with two minutes to spare. My credit card had not been compromised, just lost (and will be replaced tomorrow!) We had enough food to make a good lunch. I got to take a nap!
There are so many ways to look at life and all the little moments that make it up, but if we can be like those earth angels – living in gratitude and love, and focusing on all the things going right, it doesn’t just make our own day better, but the days of the people we come in contact with. I’m so grateful they were part of our weekend!
I hope your day is abundant with things for which to be grateful
