When Change Comes.......

When change comes into our personal lives it is normally unexpected. Something one didn't expect shifts circumstances and relationships and suddenly life takes on a new energy. 
Shock is normally the immediate response and if you are one to allow drama and anger to infuse your life these follow shortly thereafter.  
As much as unpredicted circumstances may rock the boat and unsettle peaceful waters if you sit and look deeply and quietly there is always more going on than meets the eye. 
Something that will bring lessons, growth and healing.

Keeping out the blame game where the ego can take one on a merry ride of chaos and upheaval comes when you have let go of the need of being right. You understand that this is occurring for a reason.
Staying in a place of forgiveness and love to self and others involved in a drama no matter what the situation makes more sense than continuing to behave in a negative and confrontational way. 

When egos battle the result is always disastrous. 
Often those lashing out do so because they have issues not dealt with, or are unhappy and it is easier to let rip at another than to embark on a path of deep inner reflection. When one takes a more holistic approach to dysfunction and conflict focusing on harmony being the end result rather than confrontation things begin to shift. 

The art of listening to the inner self and of taking time to reflect on what comes into your realm takes work. 
When you can feel the emotions without becoming emotional then you will deal with upheavals in a different way. 

You will see you need to stop an argument/confrontation and take time to sit with what the interaction brought up.  You realise that an angry person is not a thinking person and that maybe a little time to reflect is required.
I don't believe that anything happens in our lives without reason, we may not understand conflict at the time. It might even give you a few aha moments where you can see that change is required on your part. Staying in a place of love when someone is angry at us takes courage.

Continuing to work on the self shedding and growing and continually transforming as you move ever forward in life changes the way you respond to things. 
Being able to say a wholehearted thank you to someone for their anger or agitation will see you deal with problems arising in a vastly different way. 
The harmonious way of the heart with compassion and without expectation.......
