“To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.” — Lao Tzu
The Meaning We Provide Is Subjective
What in your life has recently been lost? Was there a relationship involved? an occupation? finances or another issue? What feelings did the loss cause you to feel? Maybe it’s rage, fear, or another emotion? Are you still processing your loss, or have you recovered? I want to reassure you that what was taken from you will eventually be replaced by something greater. I don’t want to offer you false hope that ending a relationship will lead to finding someone new. People sometimes leave our lives abruptly. Since I am destined for the same outcome, I regrettably lack all of the solutions.
One thing, though, I have discovered. When something is lost from my life, I experience a period of mourning before better things enter my life. Whether we do or not is up to us. In any case, the interpretation we make is subjective since we don’t fully understand why things take place. To soothe our minds, we can only make assumptions. Do you have any experience with this? Are you still trying to find an explanation for why the cosmos occasionally behaves cruelly and unfairly? It is normal to have these thoughts, but they might lead us down a rabbit hole of despair while we hunt for solutions.
I urge you to concentrate on the lessons you learned from the experience rather than trying to figure out what they mean because it might or might not happen. It would be irresponsible of me to even try to explain why awful things happen because I am unable to. In order to go forward as best you can, I can only help you make sense of what happened. The goal is to re-empower ourselves by gaining fresh knowledge and experience while also viewing our setbacks with self-kindness and compassion.
The Universe Wants To Make Use Of Your Pain
Life can alter at any time, making the cosmos seldom predictable. People’s life are turned upside down, and they are abruptly thrust into desperate circumstances. The cosmos always offers us more in return when it takes something from our lives, that much I am certain of. We receive the gifts of knowledge, tenacity, humility, compassion, and moral fortitude from it. If not for our loss and pain, we would not be able to purchase these virtues online because they take years to develop. What I’m trying to convey is that when we find ourselves in circumstances that are not of our choosing, we come to terms with our true selves.
We all encounter pain and suffering, and how much we suffer depends on how we perceive our setbacks. Having studied the lives of centenarians over the years, it is clear that many of them experienced anguish and suffering. Their determination to live is the only thing they have in common. In his book Man’s Search for Meaning, Viktor Frankl discussed this concept. Thousands of people have heard the experiences of those who withstood tremendous hardship during the Holocaust in Nazi Germany and found the resolve to live.
We become more resilient and are able to prioritise our priorities while we are experiencing hardship. Our anguish serves as a healing agent for the suffering of others. We may utilise our suffering to concentrate on matters that are important to us, such as social justice, inequality, environmental concerns, or other problems impacting people. Some people discover a greater meaning in their tragedy when they lose something important. I’m brought to mind people who experience catastrophic events like vehicle accidents, murder, and rape that result in the loss of family members. Some people launch social initiatives aimed at improving the lives of those impacted by these tragic incidents. So what exactly am I saying?
Trust. Try to be as accepting as you can, and have faith that the universe will use your suffering for your own good or the good of others. Fair or unfair, life is neither. These explanations are provided by our mind to make sense of unpleasant circumstances. Life is functioning properly and fostering our personal development.
In other words, if the universe has taken something from your life, something better might come along soon to fill the void. After all, the Greek philosopher Aristotle is credited with the phrase “Nature abhors a hoover.” Meaning: Something greater or equivalent in value will take its place.
Hello Everyone, finally published my new book “Focus”. In this book, I took a poetic licence in considering the spiritual aspect of focus, which has rarely been done. Other books focus on the practical aspect and tell you to do this and that, but in my book, I discuss how we can find focus within ourselves without relying on an action-oriented approach. Any purchases or KDP reads will be greatly appreciated. If you like my books, do leave a review. Here’s my author page on Amazon – https://amzn.eu/d/aKbYysx
Be Inspired..!!
