Trust that life is happening for you and not against you.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but I am feeling called to share.

Maybe there are some people out there who are really struggling with life and have been for a long time! What do I mean by that?

Well, Perhaps in life, things are always seeming to be stressful and difficult with many obstacles blocking you from trying to achieve your life goals, in many different ways. Maybe it always feels like your playing catch-up with bills and responsibilities, and burdens, that feel incredibly overwhelming and it makes you feel stuck and unhappy. These things may make you wonder, am I ever going to get a break where I can just take a breathe for one moment? When will things just go my way? Then you wonder to yourself, what is the point and why bother?

Life teaches us things in many different ways, to make us stronger and more persevering, while transforming us into our best version of ourselves!

For those of you that are looking at the other side of the fence, saying I want to be over there or why can't I be over there, where it's more peaceful, and everything just flows so perfectly, instead of being over here where it's Chaotic, with so many problems and everything is out of my control.

As much as we don't like problems, obstacles and difficult situations, there is a reason for it all.

Problems obstacles and difficult situations cause challenges in our lives and yes they really do suck!

This creates change that we don't want, but it is exactly what we need. These challenges that cause change, when we are faced with this, can be frustrating and initially we aren't sure how to solve whatever issue we are trying to move through. That is when we take a step back and observe the situation , try looking at it from a different view and eventually we find a solution. This whole process gives us a choice to either freak out and give up, while letting fear take us over, or stay calm and figure out how to get through it. Many times in this moment we just want to give up, because we feel defeated, especially when it happens over and over again.. Sometimes walking away from it and coming back to it later, we can more easily find a resolution. By going through these types of challenges and obstacles, our perspectives and mind set, begin to evolve into more available and simple solutions. They teach us how to navigate more easily through life. Now this can be something as simple as a flat tire and as complex as resolving an issue with a friend, family member, significant other or legal matters.

We all put ourselves in this box that keeps us safe and from having to change, meanwhile, our lives slowly become incredibly stagnant, miserable and uncomfortable. The hard truth is life is ever changing and if we don't make the choice to change, evolve and release old ways of being, thinking and doing, the universe will create change for us, leaving us no choice to do so on our own. We can only grow when we have removed the box(or the universe has removed it for us)and feel completely out of our element. It is scary and no one likes to be there, naked and vulnerable, not knowing what direction to take and not liking the way the newness feels, once we have decided to move in a new direction. After a while it starts to feel good and your so happy you aren't in that box anymore, you feel freer than you thought you could ever imagine.

If you are on the side of the fence, where there is lack and nothing but problems and your looking at the easy life on the other side, wanting to be over there, then there is something that life is trying to teach you with the obstacles you are encountering in your life, before you can get to the other side. The only way to the other side is to move through those challenges with as much positivity as possible, towards each situation and remember that there is a lesson in every obstacle and challenge, we go through. You are not alone in this! Every human experience this at one point or another in life.

Start to believe in yourself, that you can get through anything that comes your way. Believe that you can do this! Don't just believe it, but say it to yourself! Don't just say you can do this, but say you are doing this!

It can be hard to believe that things will change for the better, because you are so focussed on the literal shit, you are sitting in at the moment. As long as you believe it will get better, it will. At first you won't believe it, just keep saying it, tell yourself every day out loud and in your mind, all day if that is what it takes, until you do believe it!

Everything you think in your mind and everything you say out loud, in this moment, to yourself, to people will create the very life you are living in. It goes out into the universe and the universe begins to create the reality you are creating with your thoughts and feelings and words. So if you want things to change for the better, you have the power to think, speak and feel it into your life. Say it like it's already yours! As my mother always says "Abracadabra!"

We are powerful beings, experiencing a 3rd dimensional world and everything we say, think and feel is like a spell we are casting out to the cosmos.

Speak, think, feel and act, what you want into existence! The universe is waiting for you to tell it what you want, so it can begin to create it just for you! It may not be exactly what you want to the dollar, but it could be even better than you ever imagined!

Speak think, feel and act negative and that is what will come into your life. Speak think, feel and act positive and that is what will come into your life. Where things are peaceful and exciting and doable with ease and comfort.

Of course it won't happen overnight, but watch the magic start to happen and soon you'll be on the other side of the fence where you thought you would never be able to reach!

While your waiting for that to happen, enjoy the adventure! Life is not about the destination, but its about how you got there and all the efforts that brought you to that freedom.

Others of you may be on the fence and your not quite sure how to jump off or make the leap. This leaves you stuck (by your own choices and much fear and fear of lack mentality). Your not quite sure which way to go or if you should jump. There is really only one way to get off and that is take the leap and know that you will be ok, even if it's not ok at first, it will be. Even if you feel like your decision to jump was wrong, it wasn't. Change needed to happen and your better off there, than where you were. It's never too late to change your path and make adjustments when needed. If you feel it in your gut or like something inside of you is prompting you to jump, then do it and the universe will take good care of you.

Now if your not following what I am saying, here is what I mean. I always wondered what it meant too. The thing is, is when you take a leap of faith and go for it, it's the craziest thing how things just start happening for you and everything just come to you so easy, like it was meant to be.

That is the universe working in your favor!
