Our life is an expedition through each experience, it shapes how we evolve, it is a personal journey, a journey personal to you, we all have our own unique way of moving through life. Your personal journey, how you move through life, is what defines who you become, it is an exploration of your life’s path, your reason for being here. As you journey your way through each experience, you adventure into where life is positioning you to evolve into who you are becoming. This expedition is why you are here, it is your destiny, it has reason and meaning, your purpose is to grow and life gives you the opportunity to do so.
Life can be uncomfortable, it often throws us into situations that can be confronting and challenging, situations that are both difficult and rewarding, this is how life reminds us of what is important. Everything we experience shapes who we become and fashions our view on life, it affects how we interact and how we react, everything we experience is a part of the journey we came here to take so it is what how we move through each experience that is important.
Accepting what is happening can be difficult, sometimes it takes a while to process what is going on and you have your own individual way of processing, you have patterns of behaviours based on what you have been through, where you have been and what you have seen. How you get through what life presents is uniquely yours because only you have been where you have been and only you have seen what you have seen. Some situations feel like you don’t have any choice, like there is nothing you can do about what is happening, but how you move through these situations is up to you, you can choose to take the high road, to embrace what life is presenting you with and do your best within in. You will find you are equipped to handle it, you will find you have what it takes to get through it, you will find the strength to continue along this journey because this is where you find yourself for the experience it gives you. You are made up of all you have experienced, you are made for this experience as well, it is meant for you, as uncomfortable as it is, how you move through it is up to you. Everything you have been through has had an impact and you have impact to, it is all a part of life and the experience life gives us, which is the reason we go through what we go through.
You are resilient, you are adaptable and there is a strength within you….
There is a strength within you, a knowledge that is so very important, a knowledge that shows you how resilient you are, where you know your abilities as well as your limitations, where you are true to yourself, where you own the good in you as well as the bad and you instinctively know what to do. This is how you will empower any situation you find yourself in, this knowledge of self is so very important, this knowledge of resilience is so very important, this knowledge of adaptability is so very important and it will help you feel more capable in challenging times.
You are made up of all your experiences, they are a part of you now, you’ve experienced them, so what is happening today is a part of your path as well and what you do with what you have, what you do with where you are will define where you get to and who you become. When you draw upon this awareness it gives you strength, you know within you you will find a way through, a solution, you know within you there is something in this experience that is of value, that will benefit your development and also will benefit the development of others. There is a greatness within you where you can draw upon it’s strength to be the best you can be, to do the best you can do with where you are and what you have. You draw upon this greatness when you rise to the most challenging situations in life, these situations define who you are and show you what you want.
When someone else is going through something similar you will have the wisdom to share their space, to hold them as they navigate their way through their own individual way through what they are going through, you can be there and still allow their journey to be their own. We all have our personal journey and our own way of processing what is happening, you can support them with all the love and acceptance of who they are and where they are at, just as you support yourself with loving acceptance of who you are and where you are at.
If you are restless, be restless, let your restlessness inspire you to create change….
Having loving acceptance of who you are acknowledges all your strengths and your imperfections, life itself is imperfect and allowing yourself to be vulnerable, accepting help when you need it, is a part of your personal journey too. If you are restless, be restless, your restlessness will inspire you to recreate, to redesign, to allow evolution to take place. If you are discontent, be discontent, this discontentment will inspire you to make change, you do have the power to create change. If you are uncomfortable, be uncomfortable, if a situation isn’t sitting with you, you don’t need to stay in it if something doesn’t feel right then it probably isn’t where you want to be. Know there is a reason you feel what you feel, this too is a part of what it is to be you, this life is your life to live in a way that honours what you believe, that honours what you are about. Doing what you feel good doing, doing what excites you, doing what you love, is what you should be doing, how you feel about what you do is what is important.
There will always be a way to do what you want to do, there is always be a way to be who you want to be, this is what you love about you, there is always a way where you can be true to yourself within anything life is presenting you with. This is your personal journey and it is personal to you, be the best you can be, this journey will challenge you and evolve you, it will also delight you and inspire you. There is so much fulfilment in betterment, you feel better when you do better, and it’s better for everyone when you are better.
This life is your life, this journey is a part of your evolution, you can be empowered, you can find fulfilment and you can know you are living your life well. You are exactly who you are meant to be, you are exactly where you are meant to be and what is happening is meant to happen, life is evolving, you are evolving and so are we.
Love your life and life will love you back.
