#Repost @mindfulmft ・・・ Found this quote on @bumble and I’m about what it’s laying down. Hard things happen. Confronting things happen. We’re redirected often, and our expectations (rewind...*their* expectations of us) often fall short, don’t go according to plan, or lead us to something that needs to be learned, instead of just given. If the things that don’t go “our way” wipe us out, then we’re not going to get very far in this life. Our work is to become adaptable, flexible, and elastic. We’re to connect to our resiliency and work towards finding our own path forward that’s actually grounded for US, centered and aligned for US, and an extension of that which leads us to internal peace and freedom. A relationship ends, you fail something in school, you don’t get what you believe your dream job to be, you fight with your family, you lose friends, you have devastation, pain, and hurt. And maybe it doesn’t come around to a nicely put together story. Maybe you and your family don’t actually laugh at everything. Maybe you didn’t ever actually finish school, and maybe you’re still unhappy at work. But here’s the thing. Your thoughts and what you do with them is what either keeps you in suffering or is what moves you towards your peace and healing. What you choose to attach to the things that happen in your life will either keep you stuck in your contraction or move you towards your expansion. So what’s it going to be? What do you choose? #mindfulmft https://www.instagram.com/p/BupmhdYhofp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cizrfq6g3vcs
