Make it worthwhile
Whatever situation you find yourself in – there’s always a gift, an opportunity or a blessing to be found.
But it’s up to you to find it – otherwise the “mess” or the suffering will have been in vain.
If you can’t figure it out – ask better questions and devote time to thinking about it – and ideally take pen to paper.
The gift is there – it just may be hidden.
By moving to the position of the witness – observing from a higher vantage point – it helps to detach from the situation at hand and will be helpful in finding the deeper meaning.
When we can make sense of what we’re experiencing – and find the deeper meaning – it makes the pain or suffering worthwhile.
Remember that everything is happening FOR you – even if in the moment you can’t see how or why.
That’s a great place to start your inquiry, “if this situation was for my benefit – and it is – how is this serving me?”
