“Dear life, When I said ‘can my day get any worse’ it was a rhetorical question not a challenge.” Tweet by Will Ferrell @WillyFerrell
When I saw that, I knew that Will Ferrell and I were having the same type of day. Or, more precisely, the same type of week in my case.
From rupturing a disc in my back last week to salmonella poisoning from bagged greens this week and everything in between… I am ready for a change in energy – for a new wind to blow through to clear some of this mess out.
I was talking with a friend and she, too, felt the same feeling – What else could possible happen? She asked, “Can’t I just have some of those easy days where everything seems to flow?”
And, the answer is, right at this moment… evidently not. This is what’s happening right now for some of us and we just have to remember that these character-building days don’t last forever. They are just part of the cycle of life. So, we turn to our inner wisdom, our Higher Selves and ask for all that we need to navigate on through until we reach the calmness we know is there for us.
And, what we both decided to do when another character-building opportunity comes along is to remember that in the grand scheme of it all… this is but a tiny part and we’ll make it through. Yes, we will.
Besides, ease and grace are there for us, too.
How do you navigate the choppy waters? How do you keep the faith?
