TAKE LIFE AS IT COMES

We all experience life events that are anything but comfortable.  This is a common thread we all share, and these periodic events can make us feel stifled and can deplete our enjoyment of life. 

Take Life as it Comes

We feel so content when life flows smoothly, yet when we experience the slightest little twist, we may feel slightly off kilter or struggle immensely. 

Realistically, we cannot escape life’s lessons. Many of us look at them as punishment or bad luck, and we can get caught up in the event spending far too much time thinking about “our bad luck” and “why me” as opposed to welcoming the lessons for growth and expansion.

“Loss” is often a big portion of our lessons whether it is loss of a loved one as they pass over or when we walk away from someone or someone else walks out of our lives and the list goes on. 

Are these actual losses?

A loved one passing on has just moved to the next chapter of their soul’s journey. How could that be a loss?

Being with someone whose energy clashes with us or that we have outgrown is not ideal by any stretch of the imagination.  Saying our goodbyes and moving on to a new chapter in our life is not a loss. It is a new beginning.

Our attitude towards events and choices can make the experience less than ideal or we can see the event for what it is and use it for growth. A life event, teaching us lessons that can only be taught this way, are not punishment; they are not bad luck. They are growth and propulsion forward. Take life as it comes.

These lessons can be uncomfortable, for the moment, but remember, they are temporary, and we will adjust. They provide us with valuable lessons or life experiences that would not otherwise have been taught.  There is usually a deeper meaning behind these events although we may not be able to understand what is being taught in the moment.  Don’t search for the answers to these experiences. Let them reveal themselves to you.  The search itself can hold you back.

Your attitude and focus play important roles in all life experiences.  You cannot escape your life and what is. You are meant to experience the lesson; how long you hold onto the pain is a choice.  That is up to you and your focus can change when you decide that it is time to move on. 

Do not focus on what is missing, focus on what you have.  Pay heed to all the little things in life that are working even when they are hard to find, for they are still there.  Your focus amplifies what is. With practice, this focus gets easier and easier. It does take work to become accustomed to how the mind operates but it is no different that muscle memory.  Practice makes perfect.

Don’t forget, you are not your mind. You are the one listening to it.

REFLECTIONS

Listening to the world news, you can’t help but feel pain and sadness.  Experience the concerns and worry (just for a moment) and acknowledge the plight of others.  Innocent people are dying because of war.  People are being forced to leave their homes due to safety concerns.  Parents are losing their children and children are losing their parents.

Reflections

Now spend some time reflecting on your own life. Where do your reflections take you?

There may be some issues that surface during our reflections, but it is not all bad. Yes, the cost of living has increased immensely, including housing, mortgages, rent, food, etc. but the important thing to focus on is we are managing, maybe managing on less, but we are managing.

We can still feed our children, and most are able to pay the rent. We don’t worry about our home being bombed or having to leave where we live to be safe. 

We hear many complaining about the number of refugees entering our country, but so many come from war torn countries. Normally, if they can get jobs, they take the jobs that many of us would not consider taking.

We have always had to work for what we have, but we live without fear and in most cases, we have a roof over our heads. 

Let’s acknowledge and appreciate what we do have in life and not what we feel is missing.  In many ways, compared to several countries, we live a life of luxury. 

We are not suggesting that you give up on your goals. What we are suggesting is that you be thankful for what is available to you and the opportunities you have in your life.

Perspective is everything.  Let’s make ours one of gratitude.

DID YOU MAKE A MISTAKE?

Did you make a mistake?

We have to learn to admit our shortcomings.  It may not be easy to acknowledge that we did something wrong as our ego often gets in the way, but if we are honest with ourselves and we don’t allow ego to get in the way, it is necessary to admit we are human. We can and do make mistakes.  There is not much wrong with honest mistakes, but it becomes more concerning when we do not care to take responsibility.

Did You Make a Mistake

Perhaps someone was hurt because of what we did or didn’t do. Perhaps by defending our mistake or not acknowledging that we made one, the hurt felt by others can go even deeper.  Perhaps it goes beyond the individual we upset or offended and reaches out into the community and we get a reputation for doing what would not own up to doing. 

A mistake can affect more than our emotions. It might reflect in our public image that we may have worked so hard to develop and now others may look at us from a different perspective. 

It is not always easy to admit to a mistake, but it is necessary not only because of the potential fallout but because it is what needs to be done for you and your peace of mind.

If we review what took place and are honest with ourselves, we know instinctively what needs to be done.  There is no bad intent with a mistake.  We just weren’t thinking. Perhaps it was due to lack of knowledge, an automatic reaction, etc. 

Sometimes we are justified by what we have done (but in this case, it is not an error but a lack of good judgement).

In most cases, a mistake is not as big as we may think and did not have the impact that you thought it might have had. Yet, in other cases, the consequences of our mistake run deep. Without admitting our mistakes and apologizing for them, we can create even more pain for those involved.

Don’t let ego stop you from being you! Take a deep breath, own your mistake, apologize and move forward.
