Bulletproof Soul


Sometimes the mind can trick us into thinking that what we are faced with is insurmountable, but the human psyche is tough enough to withstand anything. Our soul is bulletproof.

If you find yourself going through hell, keep going. No matter what you are dealing with today, tomorrow it will change.

"We are continually faced with a series of great opportunities brilliantly disguised as insoluble problems."

~John W. Gardner

“Most of our obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them.”

Hello Alexys,

These are truly comforting words, "No matter what you are dealing with today, tomorrow it will change."

I have always held on to these words that brings a sense of perspective: This too shall pass!

Thanks for the reminder. :D

Oh, Alexys, I really resonate with Marden's quote.

This is something that I have experienced in my life. When we face our dragons, we embrace the unknown. It is so empowering.

Great post!

Hi Miruh,

The best words are simple and straight from the heart. Sometimes it's all we need to hear.

Hi Linda,

Dragons can be powerful in the way that once we slay them, we realize they have given us new life.

It is indeed reassuring to realize absolutely everything is a blessing in disguise. Another way to look at every event, person, situation and emotion, is to sense love presents itself in form and formless states to prompt you to expand your understanding of love to teach others to learn the power of empathy and compassion.

What you say is very wise and true. We are souls eternal and that which seems to be insurmountable is simply a distraction and nothing more. We can and do overcome much more that we ever consider we are capable of.

Liara,

The 'presents' of love are gifts we can't live without.

Mark,

If people only realized what they are capable of, they would feel their real power.
