Have you ever wondered why some people seem happy all the time, no matter what is going on in their life?

We all know someone who has lost a loved one, gotten fired from a job, had their car break down on a rainy day, or suddenly a dear friend starts treating them poorly. Yet, they seem to take it in stride and go about having a lovely day.

How can that be?

Are they shallow? Insensitive? Emotionally detached? Or do they know a secret?

What do you do when something difficult happens in your life? Do you find someone else to blame? Do you throw your hands in the air and walk away? Maybe you decide to have a stiff drink in the middle of the day.

I get cranky. Yup, yours truly gets a little perturbed. A little tone creeps into my voice. I speak with shorter sentences, i.e. abruptness. It doesn’t usually last for long, but it does happen.

We all experience difficulty. Usually it is unexpected, and most often it happens at the worst possible time. We all have different ways of dealing with those moments. For some people those moments can last hours or days. No matter what, they can’t seem to get past the yucky incident. They repeat the story to anyone who will listen. They use it as an excuse for everything else they don’t like.  It gets embedded – and cycles around to feed itself.

Do you want carry the difficult emotions embedded in your psyche, or would you rather find a way to go about having a lovely day?

It is important to remember that everything which happens in our life is there to show us something about ourselves. Learning new ways to respond to those unwanted circumstances is a key to the experience of ascension.

Finding new ways to observe what has happened, within the context of your spiritual journey, gives you the opportunity to truly examine your ability to embrace the unexpected.

The path of ascension is all about the unexpected.

There are a few things you can keep in mind to help you through those difficult times. To assist you in seeing the bigger picture and moving forward without cycling the yucky energy around and around.

In this week’s article you’ll find a few of things I do to loosen up the stuck energy and step into the lovely day I really want to have.

These are simple reminders of Universal Truth.

When I stay focused on Universal Truth, I give less power to the isolated incident. I can acknowledge the pain, but I don’t have to live in it. I consciously invoke the powers of Grace to help me move beyond the unwanted – while integrating what I have learned from it.

Find out a little more about the Universal Truths that will help you invoke Grace when you need it most.
