DAY 329

I finally see with the eyes of my soul

E
xhausted. sad, worried, devastated... that´s the way I´ve been feeling the last couple of days

My mood was ruined, my nerves were in tatters and my life seemed to be falling apart. I was feeling paralyzed with fear and uncertainty... shocked

The attitudes and opinions of my siblings were not helping me, they were even more frightened than me due to the direction my mother´s life had taken. They had also succumbed to the temptation to dramatize and were carrying me out of my center

I was totally disconcerted and disturbed when I had a moment of sudden revelation and I saw this could be the perfect chance of making decisions and creating new dynamics. The perfect chance of exploring new possibilities... the perfect chance of rearranging old routines. The only thing I had to do was stop seeing what had happened as a drama and start to see it as an opportunity. So simple, so difficult!

This has helped me to realize that even when I use to say everything happens for a reason, often I forget to find out the meanings and messages behind the facts and get lost in an emotional bog. I truly believe that these circumstances are teaching me that I am able to overcome my old blockages and living according my new beliefs


PS: I am behind with my blog due to my life circumstances. I am transcribing my impressions of previous days in order to catch up with my posts
