This week's newsletter is late because yesterday was a computer crash day. In our house, computer and electrical problems always coincide with stress ... and coincidentally yesterday was a stress day. Funny how that works.

Both have now passed ... the computer is working and the computer in my mind is clear and free of the problem which it was trying to create yesterday. I took the opportunity to learn from both experiences. I learned how to fix certain computer glitches and I learned about myself and old emotions that can surface like weeds at any time.

Each day I learn something new I grow wiser. I am open to the lessons of life because there is no better teacher than experience.

So rather than buying into pain and buying into negative emotions, first I acknowledge there is a problem. As my Unity friend the Rev. Grace Merrick says "within the problem is the answer". Within the problem, I learn the changes I have to make to either my thinking or my actions.

If I know what I don't want, it's logical that I know what I do want instead. But most of us get lost in the knowing-what-we-don't-want bit and stay there.

Why change? Remember the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result.

What if you treated each hurdle as a learning experience? What if you allow yourself to learn from others because there is something to be learned from every human being?

When the pace of life is calm and peaceful - that's the time to notice the little lessons around you. Then when the un-calm and the un-peaceful hits, you'll be experienced at looking for the lessons, knowing your part in the issues, and taking charge ... i.e. you'll be able to put your consciousness back in control.

You have the power to change within you - that's how shift happens.

Self-Reflection Questions:
1. Are you practicing insanity or wisdom in handling issues?

2. How can you open up to accepting new knowledge and new approaches?

3. What have you learned today?


Learn from others' experience ....
The key to change... is to let go of fear.
~ Roseanne Cash

Life can either be accepted or changed. If it is not accepted, it must be changed. If it cannot be changed, then it must be accepted.
~ Anon
