Attitude, Devotion & Optimism

Once we choose to commit ourselves even the mountains & valleys will reverberate to the sound of our purpose! We alone must make something of ourselves. Nothing is not open to us!

Remember: All growth comes with a shock like a sprout breaking thru to the surface of the earth. There was an old person who began an orchard upon retirement. Everyone laughed. Why plant trees? They said you would never live to see a mature crop. Undaunted, the old person planted anyway and has seen them blossom! We all need that type of optimism, attitude & devotion!! 

Regarding healing, no matter how extreme a situation is, it will change. It cannot continue forever. A great forest fire is always destined to burn itself out & a turbulent sea will become calmer. Natural events balance themselves out by seeking their opposites & this process of balance is at the heart of all healing. Whether the situation is illness, calamity or one’s own anger, we know that healing will follow upheaval.

We must understand how the past affects us, we should keep the present full of rich & satisfying experiences and we should devote some energy each day to building for the future.

Disasters may well change us deeply, but they will pass. We must keep to our deeper convictions & remember our goals.  Whether we remain ash or become the phoenix is up to us! (Sometimes it is best if we Stop taking life so personally!)
