Life lessons can be obvious or subtle. Sometimes they turn up in a package that you identify and can make use of instantly.
However, at others, they appear in forms that you do not automatically recognize. Much of the time, such occurrences seem negative initially. You might even feel discouraged and uncomfortable when they arise. In fact, it is often when opportunities for self-growth appear, which push your boundaries that a great deal of learning can take place.
Your relationships provide you with fantastic opportunities to gain knowledge about life and self-awareness. Possibly, you class some as positive and others as negative. You are unlikely to welcome those that cause you pain. Indeed, when your life is in harmony with the energy of the universe, you feel peaceful and happy. Nonetheless, the trials and tribulations that arise via some relationships are associated with self-growth.
Have you noticed that people might enter your life for a short while, yet have an amazing impact on you? Such events arrive like bolts of lightning and jolt your awareness so that it expands. Other relationships can involve you having an impact on someone else. Nevertheless, you gain at the same time as you assist others. Long-term relationships may entail extended lessons that require time to unravel. However, you will also encounter people that provide you with companionship, rather than opportunities to learn, whom you are attached to for a great deal of time.
Moments of stillness and tranquility can enable your inner critic to become silent and insight to flow. During quietness, you are better able to listen to your higher voice and make the most of the awareness you have previously gathered. At the same time, you have a direct line to the collective unconscious and can profit from greater understanding, compassion, and wisdom.
Recognizing the positive side of catastrophes can be tough. Devastation appears in the form of loss, so it is no wonder that noticing what it provides in a positive sense is difficult. Not all life lessons are joyful. In fact, some are downright painful. Nevertheless, there is always knowledge to be gained.
Experiences that test your sanity and resolve can leave you stronger and wiser. Although it is also true that the knowledge you glean from situations may be slow to evolve. People who are stuck in the middle of painful lessons often inadvertently extend periods of distress.
Recognizing when it is time to let go of struggle and discomfort speeds recovery and learning.
Life lessons may come to you in various guises, and sometimes they will be difficult to spot. However, you do not always need to be aware of them occurring at the time since they naturally have the power to transform you.
When you want to be aware of them, look for signs such as discomfort, or concentrated energy. If you are finding life amazing or uncomfortable, you are probably in the midst of a lesson.
