The day after the wedding, the marriage may begin.  The day after the surgery, the healing can take place.  The day after the “event” your life’s journey continues.

Ω

There are many events in our lives.  Some of the events are celebrations with friends and families.  Other events are more serious in nature and are gone about alone.  All “events” in our lives, though, are a necessary part of this journey.   The key is to learn what it is you need to know to continue on your path.

When we climb a great mountain we can enjoy the view from the summit.  The road back to your life, though, may be a difficult one.   When we enjoy each moment of our life, even when things are not so much fun, we are making the most of every breath in our lungs.  When we take a breath, we seldom notice it.  However, that breath is a moment of your life.  That heart beat, is a moment in your life.  Your life is the “here and the now,”  not the “over there, and the later.”

Yes, we all have difficulties and will have more of them before we leave the physical plane to return home.  Yes, we will all have joyous moments, and will have more of them before returning home as well.  The thing to recognize, though, is that the difficult moments can be joyous as well.  When we look to the difficulties, not as being “difficult,” but rather as opportunities, we can shift our belief system.  There is no need to accept “difficulty,” but rather to find the opportunity for growth hidden within it.

Have you ever been around a person who seems to have a difficult life, but is always happy?  Conversely, have you been around a person who seems to have a good life, but seems to obsess on their challenges?  Which person would you like to be?  Today is the day to make the decision to embrace the difficulties as much as you embrace the celebrations.  Make each day a “wedding” that propels you into the rest of your life!

When we see the world through the eyes of an optimist, we always find the beauty.  Maybe today, you should be the optimist and see the beauty in everyone and everything that you encounter!
