My Crystal Ball

I often don’t like how life unfolds and want life to unfold my way. It can be with big or little things too that I object.

This week I’ve been challenged a bit getting through a cold my husband brought home from work and shared with me. It’s made me tired and cranky and out of sorts. Yesterday instead of getting a few things done or even knitting or reading a good book I took a long nap. Guess my body needed that. I of course wished it didn’t. But all of my wishing isn’t making this cold go away any faster.

It there something in this situation I can learn from?

That is a very important question! The energy we receive in asking it brings us far more possibilities than all the wishing for things to be different thinking does–that weighs us down and keeps us trapped in a cycle of misery.

In the middle of drama of some sort if I keep my thoughts and feeling focused and centered I am able more readily to trust that life is what it is. There is an order to it that is beyond my ability to see it in the moment.

Looking back beyond the tears, laughter and pain I can see how I grew in ways I would not have if life experiences had not unfolded just as they did.

In this way life it teaching me and I am guided to new opportunities.

I actually do have a crystal ball! It lets me see that life is as it should be. I just have to remember to keep it in focus.

Is there something right now in what ever you are facing that you can learn from?
