The Daily Positive

Sunday, September 2, 2018



I didn't know whether to share this message today.
But I decided that I must, because it's important in life that we be authentic.

Right now what is authentic is to share some thoughts and reminders on dealing with life when it hits a low point.

For we ALL naturally hit low points from time to time. Es la vida (this is life).

I felt a small space inside of me whispering to remember the higher truths about life. 

The times when we MOST need to remember these truths is on the down cycle of the rollercoaster ride.

So here are a few reminders for now or for later, if you should ever find yourself hitting what you think is a low point that you can't cope with or won't recover from (or you're blessed to be the support person for someone in that space)...

  • You are allowed to feel how you feel. Feel to heal.
  • Life is change and part of change is letting go.
  • What you can't control is that way for a good reason.
  • Every end is also a new beginning. One chapter ends, the next begins.
  • An empty space (a gap or an unfulfilled need) can be seen as either a void or a vacum. A void is nothingness. A vacuum will naturally fill a blank space.
  • In truth, nothing is empty. Even what we may see as "nothing", is everything. This is the nature of love and energy, it fills every little nook and cranny of this miraculous world we live in.
  • We are ALL so much more than this current moment in time, more than our circumstances, or the events of our lives. 
  • We are all soul first, body second. With your heart look beyond the physical experience of your life, and FEEL the magnificence alive in everything you see.
  • As Kelly Clarkson sings, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and that strength is destined to be part of your unfolding life journey. It will serve to elevate you higher, that you may also perhaps elevate those around you as well.
  • All that really matters is that we are present, we are kind, we are loving.
  • Never let the low points in life harden your heart. We are here to keep open minds and open hearts, that life may flow to us and through us.
  • Buddha said... "with our thoughts we make our world." So during our low points, we must pay attention to the story we tell ourselves, and to always ensure we include light and love at the forefront of that story.
  • When all else fails, breathe and give yourself a hug. You are a truly divine being, and you are supported in ways you cannot even begin to imagine.

May light and loving vibes surround all of us this week!

Peace,
Bernadette
