Posted November 4th, 2009 | Tags: , , | No Comments

Have you ever been in a place where everything felt just right? – You love your job or you think you’ve found the person you want to spend the rest of your life with….and then…BAM – You’re unceremoniously laid off or the person you love says they want out of the relationship and they don’t love you anymore. The world as you know it is turned upside down. Your friends say that everything happens for a reason, and you try to believe it, but while you’re fighting through the pain and sadness, it seems to be a loosing battle.

Through this difficult segment of your journey, there are still fleeting moments of clarity; moments when you have a better understanding of yourself, your strength, and the knowledge that no matter what happens you will survive. These may be few and far between at first, but there’s energy in those moments and following that energy can lead you out of the darkness.

So while fighting through the pain, take time to let go and be open to that energy that can take you to a better place, a place of strength and clarity, and ready again to face life’s new adventures.
