Pay Attention - There is More Happening Here





 Focus on why it bothers you, not what they said. It’s not that triggers are bad, they actually give us an opportunity to observe and reflect, which enables us to heal. Healing happens when you're triggered and you're able to break an old pattern, and start a new habit. The Oracle Reads You

Life, I have learnt, is so accommodating to us, even when our lives seems so absolutely crazy and disjointed. Why? Life is always giving us nudges, clues, guidance and most of all love.

The trick is to pay attention and surrender. Pay attention to your own life, your own guidance. It is very easy to get caught up in what others are saying, telling you, want you to do. When we do that we miss our own Divine Guidance.

When we resist the signs, the lessons take longer to be learnt and life will keep at it until we pay attention.

Every single hurt, every mistake, every setback, every tear is a tool. They provide us with information and guidance. It really is up to us to decide how much time, attention and action that we want to spend on the feedback life is graciously giving us.

When we have a pain - Life says "pay attention"

When there is a heartbreak - Life is saying "time for focusing on yourself and what you are attracting - a long winded way of saying "pay attention"

When there is loss - Life is reminding us that everything is temporary - another version of pay attention

Pay attention - let me guide you.

Pay attention - feel your feelings

Pay attention - there is more happening here

When we pay attention to life, we experience its fullness.

Peace

What is being of service? Looking upon another human being with kindness and compassion and not judgement is a profound act of service and though such a form of service lacks for whistles and bells, this expression of “service” comes from truly understanding the power of your soul and what it means to “look upon another with eyes of grace.” Carolyn Myss 1.

What Does Support Look Like to You?

Image
  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe

Sensible Optimism

  Optimism is usually defined as a belief that things will go well. But that's incomplete. Sensible optimism is a belief that the odds are in your favor, and over time things will balance out to a good outcome even if what happens in between is filled with misery. And in fact you  know  it will be filled with misery. You can be optimistic that the long-term growth trajectory is up and to the right, but equally sure that the road between now and then is filled with landmines, and always will be. Those two things are not mutually exclusive." Who told us that all the roads on the Journey of life will be smooth and bump free? And even if you knew or remember who told you, why did you believe it given what you know? What if the blessing, what if the growth, what if the joy is found on the rocky bumpy road? What if? And if it is, we can rest easier that the bumps and rocky roads are designed with us in mind, designed for us to grow, to learn, to live a life that is filled with varie
