#This too shall pass !!!

What does this mean ? Everything is always in motion, therefore nothing remains the same. This should be a great relief for many as sometimes when we are stuck in the moment we feel there is no way out.

When something challenging arrives in our experience we tent to loose some perspective and things can really feel overwhelming. If we can remember these four words, perspective immediately broadens and there is more clarity to whichever emotion the experience brings.

This too shall pass is just a friendly reminder that everything in your past is exactly that....passed. Nothing has ever remained the same and thank goodness for that. There will always be experiences. Some will bring really joyful and comfortable experiences and some will definitely bring unfamiliar and uncomfortable experiences. Either way eventually those feelings will pass and something else will replace them.

We are taught on the spiritual path to a degree to live in the moment. That the here and now is the only moments in our lives that really matter. The only moments that really make a difference.

When really down and out, confused, sad, hurt, ashamed, feeling guilty or any other uncomfortable emotion, ask why ? What is it trying to show you ? What is it wanting you to see ? Where is it wanting you to make change ? We don't want these emotions to just pass. We want to learn from them first, as to move past those lessons so we can move on to other things. If they were to just pass, and we did not learn, then we will find ourselves in a similar experience down the road, as things will keep repeating themselves until we learn what it is we need to learn.

Whether we learn or not, your experience and the emotions associated with it will pass, but seeing as we have to be in that experience anyway, why not learn from it as to move forward and on to new and different experiences.

Reminding yourself that this too shall pass will bring a lighter perspective to your situation, therefore you can focus your attention on what it's trying to teaching you, rather than the stress you feel it is causing you. Everything will keep moving as energy does, it will pass and new will come.

So be grateful when life feels comfortable and understand when life feels uncomfortable it is lovingly trying to guide you but either way that too shall pass and you will feel better again.

#YES - There's a reason for everything !!

Yes the old saying "everything happens for a reason" is true....perfect divine timing, with perfect divine reason. You may wonder how this must be so when looking back on some of your experiences, but if you think back very carefully, you will see many times when you thought something was negative but worked out to be better than you had planned.

Sometimes when things happen to us, we are unable to see the bigger picture and due to the emotion that is attached to what we think is best, we hold on to the picture we had in our mind as to how things should be instead of seeing what really is and knowing that what ever is going on is for bigger purposes that will eventually benefit everyone involved. This is true especially if one can see the good in all !!

When someone who is negative or pessimistic goes through challenges it is likely they will miss out on the opportunity that is being offered. When some one who reveres life, and has faith all things are working together, they flow through life's challenges like the river flows through the twists and turns it encounters on its chosen path.

When something doesn't go the way we planned or we experiences something "bad" or even horrific, there are perspectives you can take, that give the understanding that's needed to see through the experience and find the truth in the bigger picture. When we can make conscious effort to try and see what might be the silver lining, we may just surprise ourselves to find there is always one if you look hard enough, or even better go within our heart and just know everything is in perfect divine working order !!

Life is never perfect, yet it is always perfect, so flow like the river, bend like the willow and always just keep doing your best, to be your best and your highest path will be laid before you. Staying in your heart is not always easy but once you learn how it makes everything easier. Everything really does happen for a reason, even if we can't be sure what that reason is, sometimes we never really know and other times we find out many years down the road as to why something happened way back when....

Everything good, bad, happy, sad, scary, hard, terrifying, exciting and challenging has made us who we are today. We choose how to respond to what happens to us, we even choose everything that happens to us, so find the silver lining, find the good and know you are always cared for unconditionally, especially when you are at your worst !!
