“How do you stay so positive, when things look so bleak?”

“I truly believe deep down, that everything happens for a reason.  The key is to quit looking for the reason and just trust that my life is exactly where it needs to be at this very moment!”

Yes, everything in your life is exactly where it needs to be at this very moment.  However, there are many times when you might argue differently.  We would challenge you to look back at a difficult time years ago, and find the “good” in that time frame.

Did you grow from the “set back” or difficulty?  Did it open up some other opportunity for you?  What could have you done differently to allow for growth and new opportunities?  Everything in your life at this very moment is exactly how it needs to be.  Is that always what we want it to be?  No, certainly not.

When we come into the physical world in this lifetime, we set out to accomplish growth in certain areas.  If we do not achieve that growth and master the lessons to be learned, we will continue to get the “homework” until we do!  Now is a good time to look for the goodness in your life and to make the changes necessary to learn those lessons!

The point of a lifetime is to achieve a new level of enlightenment, so that we can understand what is truly important.  Our egos often get in the way of this transformation, and we need to look outside of ourselves for the relationships and the love that is necessary.  Sure, we can achieve much growth living in isolation, but it is the relationships with others that teach us that we are not “it.”

What is truly “it” is the empathy and caring of others, beyond ourselves.  Yes, it is important to take care of yourself, or you can never care for anyone else.  However, we all must remember the compassion and love that we have for others, especially if it has become buried with anger and bitterness.  Life is about love and growth.  The interesting thing is one usually leads to another.

InspiraCard

Let yourself find your own goodness within, so that you might more easily find the goodness within others.  Be kind to yourself, so that you can be kind to others.  Love yourself so that you may love another.  Eventually, you may realize that we are all one!
