the Most difficult experiences can be the "Royal road" to the realization that I, you, we, all of us - small, fragile, finite (and suddenly) and is not omnipotent, ie. can't control the universe and inner world of other people.
can't force someone to love you.
can Not force the fate to be kind/fair/predictable.
can Not do nothing outside its borders and borders of its influence, which even the most influential people - a small (on the scale of world revolution). br>
"I'm limited, I'm normal, I'm small, I'm fragile."
a Very hard realization, unpleasant. br>
But through him and only through him can come to their own - albeit limited and imperfect - force, energy, will, love. To the sense and harmony. br>
I can't control the Other - but I can do what I can, I will and must (to yourself, first and foremost, his Self).
I can reveal, to develop and implement themselves.
I can develop my skills: awareness, mindfulness, introspection, self-regulation, thinking, intuition, empathy, communication, cooperation, management, education, earnings, discipline, motivation, creativity, skills, healthy lifestyle, image, home comfort, specific hard skills in my work/Hobbies, etc., etc.
I can reveal their talents and gifts, their unique energy; to flourish in its authenticity. br>
thus I can bring joy, value and meaning - to themselves and others.
thus I can become more visible and appeared to others to love me, if you want.
thus I (mean any of us) can potentially greatly influence the course of history. br>
It is very, very much by human standards. Everyone has a lot. br>
But the "bird's eye" these are all extremely small. And nothing is guaranteed. Nothing outside of personal boundaries. No overcontrol - neither wealth, nor fame, nor influence, nor wisdom, nor experience, nor the love of others - do not give.
Each of us one-on-one with Infinity, before which he was the grain of sand. br>
Unique, precious, the loss is irreplaceable but a grain of sand. Whose age is very brief, and who will never surpass their "pessimistisch". br>
it is only Possible to maintain contact with the Infinity in ourselves, with the Self (in the Jungian meaning), which - outside of, beyond dimensions, beyond time and space.
you Can "give" Her the palm in the inner world and say the infamous: "not my Will but Yours."
this concession, defeat is, in fact, win. Victory, filling the deep, unshakable peace, silence, gratitude, and love. And meaning.
This makes the source of life within, which does not depend on external circumstances. And every sorrow melts into joy. Heavy experience in wisdom. Confusion in the rest. br>
Everyone can do a little work, "weaving his thin thread" (as sung in the wonderful song of the group Fleur Shelkopryad), and let the world take care of myself, take care of this work: after all, being proceeds of Authenticity - it always resonates in the world and other people. br>
And if you stay in the inner (with)unity with the Force that leads you, your path becomes thereby Magnum Opus - the Great work - I wrote about the alchemists and mystics.
And the one who tried to "Taste" this "drink of the gods", forgive for pathos, never to be satisfied with a "taste" of the life in which the little human self is at the center of the world, as the navel of the earth, puffed up and desperately trying not to fall down from the throne. None of these temporary pleasures can compare with the Joy. br>
Therefore, heavy experience, heavy experience and frustration is a gift. A gift that you need to unpack. A riddle you have to solve. Meaning that you need to find. br>
And I want each of us to remember that, when it is difficult; to find the strength and inspiration to this inner work; and to the extent possible was a "beacon" for others - those who are now dark.
