PICKING UP THE PIECES

The scattered inner life, as a rule, is put together by picking up the scattered pieces and setting them in place............
 The above quote comes from Frederick W. Bailes and it says a lot about how we , as humans, oft times have to experience things we consider harsh, dirty, or just downright mean! If there is a human alive today who has not sorted through some B/S at one time or the other, then they are either living a life of total bliss or they are just not getting out in the world very much. All of us at one time or the other has had to suffer through a loss of some kind that took us on  a weary trip we did not enjoy very much. We lose loved ones through separation, divorce, and even so called death. One thing that never changes is that life will make us face changes and it is how we deal with the changes that either make us stronger or serve to further hide our light of attunement. Some of you may be dealing with a divorce, a separation, or death of someone you love very deeply. And if so I can only hope you stay strong and await the time when things get better. Emotional pain and stress is one of the hardest things to overcome. But I can say from my own personal experience that you can survive anything. I know the pain may seem so overwhelming at the moment, that you think it will never end because I have been there myself. But it will ease and you can survive if you stay strong. Things we cannot understand can either kill us or make us a better person. My hope is that whatever pain any of you are experiencing will quickly return back into the illusion from whence it came and allow you to once again come out on the other side with your light burning brighter than ever. And try to remember you are never Alone. It can seem that way I know but you always have the answer to your problem. As Nona L. Brooks once stated:"The whole of truth is always here, open to us; however, it is necessary that we find it for ourselves. Live today with a smile and a willingness to be part of this life's solutions and remember, you are never alone! I leave you with thoughts of love, peace, and joy in your life right now.

"Things we cannot understand can either kill us or make us a better person. " - yes, my experience (and I believe it is typical) is that we find our inner strength only when circumstances in life have first forced us on to our knees - what is often called "the dark night of the soul". As is said "the darkest hour is just before dawn".

I've always thought it strange how we never seem to be able to see beyond the confines of the moment when we're stuck in it... and no matter how many times this reoccurs in life, we never learn from the previous experiences!
It is almost like some weird consciousness "feedback loop"!
Recognising our collective oneness and knowing we are not alone is always a comfort.
Your words are a beacon of wisdom!
Stay well my friend.
Carl.
