This week’s question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Cynthia.
A year ago I lost everything…my house, my husband, and my business. It was a dark time for me. Since then I’ve been trying to find meaning to help me see why I attracted those painful experiences in my life. Can you help?
Hi Cynthia.
Sometimes it’s pretty tough to find meaning in painful situations.
And honestly you may never really know why something happens, which is why I always turn to the truth in situations like that.
The truth says that the thing you need to overcome is the lesson you need to learn to be the greatest you in your life.
This lesson is part of your destiny. You wouldn’t experience it if it weren’t there to help you grow and heal.
Things happen not to hurt you but to heal you.
So take a moment and look back at your life. How were you different then as compared to now?
Are you stronger?
More self-assured?
More independent?
Have those experiences opened doors that wouldn’t have opened before?
You see, your soul created those experiences for a reason, and that reason is for you to GROW.
So be very careful of falling into a victim mentality, instead be grateful for the experience as it is helping shape who you are growing to become.
After all, sailing only on calm seas does not create great captains.
