Can hurt expand the mind to make more room for joy, peace, clarity and love? we must feel our pain, we must be present with our pain, we could hold and stuff our pain, we could suppress our pain with drugs--but then that would deprive us of the expansion of our mind and heart to feel more joy and more of our creator's love for us..I often ask, why do certain events happen to me and not other people who seem like they have their life all together? I realize this is my path to live and I am living the journey that I set out for myself...I am feeling the thoughts that I have chosen to experience here on this earth..each thought leads us to another thought which then leads us to feelings of sanity, depression, joy or peace...I have chosen to follow my bliss...through the dark clouds of night and also the glistening of a sunlit day.
walk on...walk on...in each step is warmth, in each step is pain...feel both...embrace your thoughts...know that your God is always with you...holding you, caressing you...and walking with you through it all...Each step we are building faith, expanding our faith and our truth..God does have a plan for us...sometimes we have to experience pain to fully appreciate the plenty and the bounty of his love..after all is not love and fear on the same sprectrum?
I had a grief sticken experience that happened not to long ago to me and also my family but...that same weekend i learned of a young adult that died of a drug over dose...I remembered saying to myself...I have my children--they are alive and well...what more in this moment could I ask for then this blessing??
