We Can't Escape (1635 hits)

Nothing in life comes without some form of problem or obstacle. No one really enjoys facing problems, but problems will remain just what they are until we decide to face them directly.

-We can can try to avoid our issues, but amazing thing is that it will still be an issue until we face our problems.

-We can try to run from our issues, but the issue will always catch up with us until we face our problems.

-We can try to duck our issues, but the weight of our issues will always fall upon us unless we face our problems.

-We can try rise above our issues, but new issues will arise and we will still have the same issues waiting on us unless we face our problems.

Problems and issues make us into the people that we are by creating strength and character.

Face the world and everything in it,

SG

"Most of our obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them."


-- Orison Swett Marden


We can’t escape problems and negativity. Escaping just brings denial and suppression - we continue to carry the problem with us. Ironically, it is our lack of acceptance and resistance to the problem that creates the pain. Resistance builds up an energy wall or block that, if not discharged, gets suppressed into the body. These blocks identify places where we have not enough understanding or love.

For health, we must work through what we seek to avoid. How do we do this? We can love parts of ourselves that we don’t like. We can seek the lessons we are being invited to learn through the problem. We can examine our beliefs and seek to see different perspectives and a bigger picture. As our perspectives grow, more of life makes sense and has meaning.


"The Lord is a good psychologist: he knows the way our minds run. Turmoil can be the Lord's way of tapping us on the shoulder and saying, 'Don't forget me.'"



-- Eknath Easwaran

Truly on time dear!!

Sometimes we are faced with problems we think are too big for us to handle, or perhaps we shy away from it because it appears too difficult. However, we have to handle our problems head on. Nip in the bud before it becomes a lasting and bigger problem.

Thank you for sharing your insight.

We have to face the bitter with the sweet, to remove the bitter from existence.
