Dhanyavaad (Thank you)

 

As I burn the seashells candle next to me which a dear friend bought for me, I am reminded again of gratefulness. 

For the past few weeks I haven't been able to feel gratitude as much as I should. I've also tried to express or feel it within me with certain techniques, even forcing it through, but I haven't felt it entirely because of a feeling that's been lingering on. However, the most important part here, is that I acknowledge this and I'll keep working on it.

Acknowledgment and acceptance is a key part in life. 

(As I'm writing this at 12.42am, I just received a message from my friend where I am again, reminded of a friendship that I'm grateful for. It's odd I got this now because I haven't received any other messages today until I started writing this new post! Isn't it weird how the universe works?)

I've been having some trouble the last few weeks and I'm happy to acknowledge and accept that it's been a bit tough. I needed to speak to someone about my thought process and the wrong direction that my mind was heading, from a spiritual perspective. I had an enlightening call last night. I cried, I got angry, I got frustrated and then I healed, to a certain extent. He taught me that problems were going to keep arising through-out life. He gave me a perspective from a higher level where our eyes cannot reach or see.

A cycle of problems. Let them keep coming at you and keep on fighting. Thinking about it, it reminds me of a part from the Bhagavad Gita, where Arjun has to also fight. We have no option but to keep fighting and keep overcoming obstacles - it's a part of life. Let it keep happening and let it come at you. We just need to be ready each time. We need to acknowledge, and accept that this is reality. The sooner we understand this, the easier it is to deal with the next problem because we've built that resilience over time.

Hearing this, awakened my soul again. I can tell you the general things like things will become better, all will be fine in the end, which is true, but my advice is, let the game unfold as it should.
