Be in the now

I never stopped and asked myself why something happens to me and not others! Did you ever think about the logic of life?

when I listen to the experts in meditation, inner peace, spirituality and many more, they tell you that everything that happens to us is a lesson to be learned. Sometimes I just can not see the lesson that I need to learn, therefore this means I am doomed to keep repeating such lesson. They also tells us that every person good or bad that enters our life is a teacher. Again good or bad they are at that place at that time to be our teachers. Sometimes those lessons are cruel and hard to accept. There is one thing that took me this long to learn and accept that is that I need to accept and deal with the now. The now, the present is what is in front of me every second of every day. Every day Is new, every hour is new, every second of that hour is new. I have learned that if I face the now, accept it ( good or bad) I can come up with a solution to make things better. It took many years of being angry at the world and always thinking why me, why always me? Everyone always get everything handed to them, I try so hard and I just keep getting slapped by life. That was me! That is not me today. I realized that I was attracting all the chaos and dysfunction in. Now even when there is chaos and yes there is days with lots of chaos i just need to look for the answers and they will show up. For example I am all about staying busy and getting everything done myself, ( I don’t think that will change) but this week I was forced to stop everything in one second. At first I was angry and disappointed but now I can see that it was good that I slowed down. I am enjoying the few days away from everything, right now I am writing this outdoor enjoying the weather and nature. So everything happens for a reason you just need to find the good side to it.
