Taking Time to Reflect

Share on:

I’ve received lots of messages from people wondering where I’ve been and why I haven’t been posting lately.  Basically, I’ve been taking time ot reflect  Life is very cyclical – if you are a believer in Tarot cards, there is a card called The Wheel of Fortune and it means that life has it’s ups and it’s downs.  I guess you could say I’ve been on a downward turn, and that’s what I’ve been reflecting upon. 

At first I was doing the whole woe is me, why is this happening to me thing, but I quickly realized that was an exercise in futility.  From there I moved on to the pondering and reflecting portion of our program, and I’m still there.  I’m trying to figure out not WHY these things are happening, but WHAT I can learn from the things that are happening. 

I still don’t know what I’m supposed to learn, but I KNOW thre is something I’m supposed to be learning.  Hopefully the meaning shall become clear and the wheel will start on it’s upward trend again.

I think, this is a healthy attitude to have.  Stuff doesn’t always go your way, you can whine about it, or you can look at it, figure out why it’s happening, how to change it and learn something from it.  It’s a far more positive way to be.
