The
purpose of this website is to
share what I have learned from
facing my own
challenges. Maybe
you'll recognize
yourself in my story
and it will help you to
understand a little more about
'you.' Above
all, it is my sincere
desire to assist you in
understanding your life
better as well as realizing your
dreams! |
Change
Is In The Air!
As we've been told
numerous times, change is the
only constant. That has
also been my personal
experience. Nothing
ever stays the same.
Eckhart
Tolle talks about the impermanence
of everything in our
life... except Life
itself which is eternal.
He is by no means the
only one to discuss it,
but I recall his words
clearly as I write this. |
To be
honest, it came as quite a shock
to realize that there is NOTHING
in our life that ever stays the
same. Even historic buildings
that have been around for
hundreds of years will
eventually crumble to dust.
Mountains move; land masses
change; oceans engulf coasts and
sometimes whole continents. It's
only a matter of time.
People in our life will all
die, as will we; relationships
crumble or change; jobs come and
go; children grow up; friends
move; years pass; events come and
experiences go. Everything
changes.
But one of our greatest gifts
is our ability to change our
mind. And that is something that
I have done recently.
A succession of experiences
and events in my life have recently caused me
to seriously reflect on my path
and make significant changes in
my perspective. It has taken a certain amount of
courage on my part to commit to
this change, but
beneath the uncertainty I feel
at peace and wholeheartedly
embrace the challenges I
currently face.
Since this website is a
reflection of me and I have now
revised my life goals, I am removing
and/or revising a lot of the
content - as you will notice if
you've ever visited before. For
the time being, the Reflections
will remain as they are, but in the months
ahead, I will be replacing many to reflect my new
perspective as I believe many
people are experiencing changes
such as myself.
This will be my opportunity
to share and explain what I've
gone through and the impact it
has had on my life. And I can't
wait to start writing, which I
will do as soon as I've
integrated this new perspective
and can put it into words :).
Our Earth is going through
tremendous changes - witness the
new weather patterns many are
experiencing. Many of us are
witnessing changes in our
political systems, financial
institutions, economies, etc.
These changes have all been
predicted for many years but
they're impossible to ignore any
longer. Even the most entrenched
individual cannot deny that
'change is in the air.' And
along with those changes often comes
insecurity, anxiety and
downright fear.
But it doesn't have to be
that way. We have the
opportunity to view what is
happening around us with new
eyes and to anticipate these changes knowing that
everything is in perfect order
and there is absolutely nothing
to fear.
One of the catalysts to my
new path was a message I
'received' a short while ago and
I would like to share it with
you as it
points to the perfection of our
life.
|
Present
Perfect
Accept
what 'is' – totally,
without
question – as the
perfection of this NOW.
Accept it as God’s
answer to your prayers... no matter what they may
be. Whatever
you are experiencing IS
the answer you’ve been
asking for whether it’s
in the form you want and
expect, or NOT. It is
ALWAYS the perfect
answer.
ALL
WAYS! |
I have written
about Present
Perfect in an earlier
Reflection because I have come
to accept that my
experiences are always perfect for
me. But until I received
this message, I had not made the
direct connection between my
present circumstances and
experiences with my prayers.
This was a revelation for me and
is one of the subjects I will be
writing about it in the future.
Also, it doesn't
escape me that this message is
not just a personal revelation,
but can be applied globally. The
prayers of humankind are being
answered at this moment, in this
NOW, and the changes our world
is undergoing are indeed God's
answer to those prayers. AND
THEY ARE PERFECT!
Many people will
find it difficult to accept that
violence, distress, wars,
floods, famine, earthquakes,
etc. can ever be the answer to
our prayers, but I firmly
believe there is far more going
on than we can ever imagine. As
humans we have a very limited
perspective and we need to have
faith that there's a higher
intelligence at work here. Also,
there is much we can all learn
from these experiences - not the
least of which is Compassion for
every hurting individual on this
planet. And there are many!
This is by no
means the only insight I have
had recently. There have been
many others which I plan
to share, but until then I sincerely hope this
message benefits you in some way
and that you will choose to
return to this website as I
begin to recreate it from that new perspective!
If you are going
through life changes and you
would like to share your own
experiences or would like a different perspective, please
don't hesitate to get
in touch.
Live joy-fully!
