FRIDAYTHOUGHTS #237: FLOOD OF GROWTH II

Flood of growth II.

I know I've talked about this the other week but it's such an important and impactful subject that...we're doing it again. I said before that I feel like I've graduated, matter of fact, I have graduated in my level of understanding of life...big time. It's actually more like a gigantic leap than a graduation. 

The level of clarity, peace and joy that I've experienced makes the discomfort that spurred that growth seem like a bargain. Seriously, any time there is any discomfort or even a minor disappointment I experience now, I immediately thank God for the growth that I already know that is coming from it. Everything is a gift when you're able to see it, big or small. I've known this before...but I know it even deeper now.

The point that I'm making is this: nothing bad ever happens in life. Yes, I said it. Nothing bad ever happens in life...it's only bad if you don't see the opportunity for growth in it. I am aware that horrible things happen, but good people transmute horrible things and create even more beauty from it. Read that again.

The founder of M.A.D.D (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) lost her young daughter in a drunk driving accident...she lost her daughter! She could of stayed in bed for the rest of her life, she could've "packed it all in" and live in that trauma and I get it. I could imagine how devastating that can be, I've lost family members, some tragically. This mother who lost her daughter also understands grief...and what did she do? She created a program called M.A.D.D and this program has helped millions of ppl not suffer the same tragedy she suffered.

She transmuted her pain.

Read that again.

She transmuted her trauma...and created even more beauty from an ugly situation. Gives me goosebumps, love it! That's what we should be doing with even the tiniest discomfort...transmute them all. That's our job.

If she could lose her daughter, what can you do with your trauma/pain?! If you're not transmuting your trauma to create beauty...you're withholding so much love/beauty/healing that could be shared in this world.

You're that powerful, and when you realize that everything is conspiring for you, disappointments don't exist, better always comes - you'll be one step closer to healing.

Yes, horrible things happen but good ppl transmute horrible things and create even more beauty from it. That's your job to do the same...matter of fact that's a part of your purpose for being on this earth. Do the inner work necessary and create something beautiful from even the tiniest inconvenience - it's all conspiring for you and when you're able to live life with that mindset, you'll receive every inch of growth that is meant for you...and I promise you that peace, joy and growth is an organic byproduct. You're in control of the level of joy/peace you enjoy on a daily basis...and it's based on your mindset.

The bigger the challenge...the bigger the flood of growth. It's like clockwork. And that growth becomes addicting...you'll just want more. 

You're needed and when you're able to see the opportunity for growth in even the tiniest discomfort you'll elevate your character and in turn give the rest of us the most healed/greatest version of you. Meditate on that.

You are the gift that you've been waiting on. Life is so good, it's challenging but life is genuinely so good and it's an exciting time to be alive. Please take full advantage of every opportunity so you can help others in the process. Run your race and let's make this year the best year you've ever had, we've ever had...on purpose. 

I see you champion. Keep going/growing, that compound interest looks beautiful on you.  #bless
