Wisdom about Difficulties, Problems & Obstacles

[transport01]

Trials are but lessons
that you failed to learn,
presented once again.
So, where you made a faulty choice before,
you can now make a better one,
and thus escape all pain
that what you chose before has brought to you.


Difficulties are opportunities to better things,
they are stepping stones to greater experience.
Perhaps some day you will be thankful
for some temporary failure in a particular direction.
When one door closes,
another always opens,
as a natural law it has to be, to balance.

`I believe this to be true, for every day of life are lessons to be learned no matter how small and insignificant they appear......For to stop learning and evolving is to stop living.

One day a rich father took his son on a trip to the country
with the firm purpose to show him how poor people
can be. They spent a day and a night on
the farm of a very poor family.

When they got back from their trip the father
asked his son, "How was the trip?"

"Very good Dad!"

"Did you see how poor people can be?"
the father asked.

"Yeah!"

"And what did you learn?"

The son answered, "I saw that we have a dog at
home, and they have four. We have a pool that
reaches to the middle of the garden, they have
a creek that has no end.We have imported
lamps in the garden, they have the stars.
Our patio reaches to the front yard,
they have a whole horizon."

When the little boy was finishing,
his father was speechless.

His son added,
"Thanks Dad for showing me how poorwe are!"

`The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur
when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled.
For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort,
that we are likely to step out of our ruts
and start searching for different ways
or truer answers.

Keep your face to the Sunshine
and you will not see the Shadows.

When one door closes, another opens;
but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door
that we do not see the one which has opened for us.

`Pain by itself is merely pain,
but the experience of pain coupled with an understanding
that the pain serves a worthy purpose is suffering.
Suffering can be endured because there is a reason for it that is worth the effort.
What is more worthy of your pain than the evolution of your soul?

We look for solutions in many places,
but where is the solution?
The solution is in the human heart.
