In the Jewish religion, the Talmud points out that, just as we bless the good, so too should we bless the bad. In response to this, Rabbi Yehudah Fine writes how important it is to surrender to all of life’s blessings the good and the bad. That nothing shall be ignored, that everything requires attention and mindfulness.
If we are able to embrace this idea at the moments that are the most challenging, if we are able to accept that we are exactly where we are meant to be, we will find that we can navigate through life’s challenges in a way that sustains a focus on making the best choices for ourselves and for the people we love.
The beauty of being mindful; of holding yourself in the moment and having your actions and your choices evolve from that mindset is that the outcome of your choices are authentic and pure because they stem directly from the essence of what you want to accomplish rather than from other agenda’s of fear or anxiety, expectation or entitlement, anger or cynicism.
If we would just all strive to be more mindful, not just in moments of stress, but in our daily living, our lives would be fuller and more peaceful as our true selves-our souls, navigate us through our journey.
