Life is an amazing teacher; Are we listening? A Personal confession
Life is a Teacher, Are you listening and taking notes? |
Bad things happen …
Why does bad things happen to not so good people? Sometimes I know the answer to this question, but whatever may the answer; there is only truth I take with me.
I take the truth that life is a constant teacher. It forces us to stop and reflect.
One such reflection was something on the notion of my view of body. I rest in the believe of the sacredness of the body. Our body is not merely a vehicle but also a home we rest in.
Consumeristic side of culture
The consumeristic side of culture may turn it into some kind of idol for worship. Let me confess I have fallen for this wrong idea.
While looking back at my Google photos I realised that I have been living with a poor notion of myself.
Having children had given me a Dad bod but not accepting myself was not a motivation but an excuse to feel bad.
People playing God
Sometimes we may be carving our own misery rather God actively doing so.
Yes, I have started paying attention to my body and working on keeping it healthy. But this experience has thought me to take care of myself by a healthy Self acceptance.
Why is this so important Chris? I would answer that by saying that the way we see ourselves and accept ourselves may be the way we see others.
In Conclusion
Do Bad things have only side to it? Are they only filled with pain and emptiness?
Bad things can teach us how to stop and pay attention to things we thought were under your control.
They challenge you and keep you alert. Don't let them overwhelm you.
Breathe, Stop and Learn... Life is a teacher and it teaches you.
