- Jan 2
We cannot emphasize enough the impact of our attitude on our life’s experience. Life happens (both hard and heart-filled lessons) no exceptions. Challenging lessons present themselves from time to time, and we can’t ignore them or persuade them to just disappear. They are part of our life, and we must learn the lesson and deal with them accordingly. This is how we grow and mature.
We live in our own corner of the world within our family unit. This family unit may be blood related or a chosen family of friends. We are influenced by what goes on around us and for some individuals, this influence can be overwhelming at times. Then on top of what we are surrounded by, we have our own internal struggles. Some individuals cannot admit to these struggles or talk openly about them and others are quite open to sharing their emotional struggles.
Our minds race back and forth each day making judgements and analyzing all that we are experiencing. It would be interesting to see how many contradictory thoughts we experience in a day, never mind a year or a lifetime.
Our mind will tell us whatever is convenient and productive to its thinking in the moment. There is constant and continual mental dialog. For many of us, because our mind has control over us, for every action and thought there is also a reaction. This is why we should continually remind ourselves that we are not our thoughts. We are the spectators listening to them. As a result, we can choose which thoughts to act upon and which ones we can allow to pass us by without owning them or reacting to them.
We can be swept away by life events from time to time. We tire because we are human, and humans make mistakes. These mistakes, however, are valuable learning tools. We cannot change things once they have happened (such as our reactions) but we can regain control once we recognize our reaction and move forward accordingly. The lesson is to keep going and each time an event happens, your reactions will be less and less until one day, you can stop the reaction before it takes place.
Life is in your hands; it always has been.
Reaction, instead of controlled response, is a destroyer of peace. Will you start taking responsibility? Don’t be swept away by your mind’s chatter. Be the spectator to its babbling. Choose what to own and what to acknowledge and release.
