See good in everything
Monday, February 7, 2011 at 3:46PM You may know what it like to have a dream or endeavour that you focus on whole-heartedly with initiatives. When that dream does not pan out as the mind plans, or not on your projected timeline, part of you may wonder why. You may ask what you could do differently next time. The mind is conditioned to expect disppointment, to focus on what does not unfold. And yet, there is also the opportunity to see the good.
After the expected roller coaster of emotion, you may come to tell yourself everything happens for the best. Everything is a stepping stone to the unforeseen. You find the silver lining. You see the mind tricks you into believing its possible to do something wrong. You only ever do things right. As you step back and take the perspective of the universe, you are always travelling. The longest journey is inward where you awaken to the feeling of being and accept whatever comes.
"I absolutely believe that if we see the best in others, we bring out the best in others – and in ourselves. " -Jenny Blake
"If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming.” -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
