Three things in Life

Three things in Life

In the pursuit of growth into fullness of life, there are three things in life that every one experiences: Powerlessness, Brokenness, Pain and suffering.

These three things may appear in any of the four dimensions of life: Physical, Spiritual, intellectual, and emotional. In the face of this reality, there are two ways that many would likely to respond. One group may respond to powerlessness by control, brokenness by denial, and pain and suffering by rebelliousness. While, the other may surrender their powerlessness, truly accepting their brokenness and becoming more compassionate in moments of pain and suffering.

The path of surrender, acceptance and compassion, can make life more meaningful and whole.

Compassion

Good morning!

Let's be compassionate with ourselves as we journey towards progress in life. Failures make us human and compassion or mercy makes us divine. Do something to make yourself happy when you achieve something, and when you failed encourage yourself.

Loving oneself is necessary. If we know how to love ourselves we will also know how to love others.

Be compassionate and keep going.....A certain Great man said (I guess you know that person) "I desire mercy not sacrifice..."
