A Good Friday revalation

A lifetime buried lesson finally surfaced on this good Friday 2014. What YOU believe is none of MY concern.

With the assistance of a simple drawing I happened to spot on facebook today I finally got it!

All those obstacles and roadblocks on my path were put there to force me to believe in what I believed to be true. It was never necessary to convince anyone else. What other people see is their journey. It is the result of their life experiences, relationships and lessons.

What a lot of wasted energy I have spent on other people!

Although the traditions of the Easter season are no longer celebrated in my current life I do find it interesting that today is Good Friday. A day to focus on past lessons and experiences and dare to believe in a bright future.

  1. Oh, boy, can I relate to this, Barbara! A couple of days ago, I had one of those light-bulb-on-over-the-head moments when I took one more step in the direction you've identified in your post. The wasted energy just seems so, well, wasted, doesn't it? I know we are all here for our own journeys but I can't help but think what my life would have been like if I hadn't wasted so much time and energy on other people's perceptions. Perhaps it will make my next life that much easier :D

    1. Thank you so much for your comment Lois. It is unbievable how often we let other people's "thing" interfere with our life. I know we are all connected, but come on- not that close!
