Thought of The Day : Life

Thought of The Day : Life

Life, it sometimes seems, is full of situations that we don't want to deal with, facts that we prefer not to face, challenges that we really don't feel inspired to rise to. Yet it is also full of such beauty, magic, joy and inspiration. Can't we just appreciate all that and keep away from the more daunting stuff? Not if those potential difficulties really deserve our attention. Only we now know whether we are wisely avoiding an unnecessary drama or shirking a real responsibility. But it would be a good idea to get clear about this.

Thought Of The Day - Unthinkable

How do you know when you've gone far enough? How far is too far? When should barriers be put in place? Questions of this kind are often much easier to answer in theory than in practice.

And the attraction, sadly, is mutual! This happens most often when there are deep unresolved issues within both parties. These give rise to the need to play a role or act out a drama. They create scenarios where history appears to repeat itself. Such a chain can be broken. And we have the power to break it.

Thought of the Day - Life Sentence

Thought of the Day - Life Sentence

Few things in this world ever seem to come to an end. Our stories, our dramas, our processes just trundle on relentlessly. There are some who say that to take up residence in a human body is to be given a life sentence. If so, it is a sentence with many commas and no full stops. Why, even the end itself is not really the end! So, are we now heading for a 'happy-ever-after'? No! Just a 'happy-for-the-time- being'. But time being what it is, that could last a surprisingly long while.
