Words Across Time

When you love and truly enjoy what you are doing, time flies by so fast. This is how I feel when I try to blog or write during my very short time of solitude. I love to write my thoughts and get to know myself more through it. Words or writing is an effective means of showing your existence. And through it, we can speak to each other across time even when I am no longer of this world.

Happy blogging everyone! Hope this post finds you well.

Reality Bites

“No matter who you are, no matter what you have, no matter what you’ve achieved, you’ve hurt at some point in your life. Of the six universal emotions psychologists have identified – happiness, sadness, surprise, fear, disgust, and anger – the majority indicate pain.”

From Tiny Buddha by Lori Deschene

We have to “educate” ourselves and be aware that this is the reality, and we can not do away with discomfort, pain or suffering. We have to accept it as part of our existence. But it does not mean we should be miserable. We have a choice only if we teach our minds. For some people it is so natural to have a healthy perspective. Based on my experience, I am blessed to have a husband who can focus on what is most important in our life. I am the opposite. I am a worrier, I am anxious, I over think. I am writing because this is part of me training myself. I am teaching myself. We have to channel our thoughts, emotions, energy to the positive or good side. This is a challenge to us. Teaching our minds and being more hopeful/prayerful/spiritual. There is always a battle within and outside. We all hope to triumph. By having peace and living in peace.
