You Can’t Buy Experience
We are often
told we need the sad, or down side of life to grow as a person and develop our
inner strength to appreciate the good times, but some people seem to be
“luckier” than others!
Or, maybe it
is how we look at luck! In the past two
weeks my daughter has left fulltime education in the UK, become a bad tempered brat, my
dad sadly died and my insurance company has condemned my house, how unlucky am I….
In fact for
the first time in my life, for a very long time I feel secure, supported and in
control of my life. I have become surrounded by people I trust and can talk
to. Where as, two years ago when my
partner left me and my mum died I turned into a clammed up hermit. The barriers I put up to keep out pain, also
kept out joy.
Learning to
bring down the barriers and let people know us a people is envigorating, making
new friends at any age seems hard, but learning just to talk makes such a huge
change in your life.
Most of us a
afraid of failure, ridicule or rejection as we have all passed through these
sometime in our lives, but whether we accept the valuations of these comments
is up to us. Being accepting of
ourselves (warts n all), and listening to others and their needs brings a great
deal of joy. Happiness or unhappiness is
an internal choice, sadness comes and goes, but how we deal with it matters and
that makes the difference on the lasting effects it has on us.
When the
depths of despair seem the only comfortable place to be, look for the tiny
shred of light, it is always there but we are often afraid to reach for it,
when we do the warmth and comfort it brings is soul enhancing. It may come in
the form or a letter, phone call, photograph, music or friend, but when you
look it is there.

Skills & Experience:-
