A Daily Look Within – Day 25
Humans have a tenacity and a drive to succeed. We do not tend to give up very easily when the going gets tough. However, tough times call for even tougher measures–and that’s what it can feel like when we become overwhelmed and end up removed from consciousness.
Stress can add to anxiety, and emotions can swell from there. Once inflated, our ego and emotions can skew our view of ourselves and the world around us. We can feel powerless, ineffective, and spiral downward into depression. Once again, it is mind over matter that wins in the end.
If you put yourself in a positive and present frame of mind, you begin to see the possibilities instead of the problems. Your sense of “overcoming all obstacles” increases, and an abundance of energy can fill you and flow through you to others. And all this comes from simply remaining current in the present moment, and allowing your strength of consciousness remain in power.
How can you stay strong in the face of adversity? People have been asking each other this for generations. What makes us want to survive? What keeps us going even when we see others want to give up? Each of us has our own sense of life; our own spark within us that is our connection to the Creative Spirit and everything else. As we encourage and strengthen that link through regular awareness and meditation, and by allowing the energies of everything else to flow through us, we are imbued and our “knowledge” increases.
