TRUST:
~
Yes, we're learning that painful and disappointing things happen,
often for a reason and a higher purpose. Yes, these things often
work out for good. But we don't have to spend so much time and
energy figuring out the purpose and plan for each detail of our life.
Sometimes, the car doesn't start. Sometimes, the dishwasher breaks.
Sometimes, we catch a cold. Sometimes, we run out of hot water.
Sometimes, we have a bad day. While it helps to achieve acceptance
and gratitude for these irritating annoyances, we don't have to
process everything and figure out if it's in the scheme of things.
Solve the problem. Get the car repaired. Fix the dishwasher. Nurse
yourself through the cold. Wait to take the shower until there's hot
water. Nurture yourself through your bad day. Tend to your
responsibilities, and don't take everything so personally!
If we need to recognize a particular insight or awareness, we will be
guided in that direction. Certainly, we want to watch for patterns.
But often, the big insights and the significant processing happen
naturally.
Perhaps the lesson is to learn to solve our problems without always
knowing their significance. Perhaps the lesson is to trust ourselves
to live, and experience, life.
