"When you look at your life without gratitude you cannot appreciate how everything is trying to come together."

@Gee60711 2 ай бұрын

I feel it's just a cliché. If there's nothing in life that brought you to this current miserable situation, how can one express gratitude all the time?

@lauraprater2300 2 ай бұрын

@Gee60711 my experience is that it can be difficult. That's for sure. It takes practice. My practice came in the form of a year and a half fighting cancer of which 7 months was in bed going through chemo treatments. It really makes a world of difference to practice gratitude. Also, the belief in the concept that I am here to live the colors of life, including the seemingly undesirable situations that are not a logical result of my own actions. It would have been challenging for me to conceptualize prior to this experience. I literally wake up, open my curtains and think "awesome! I get another one!" And when I was getting my strength back and taking the trash to the curb I'd think "wow! Look at how strong you are!"

Thank you, @lauraprater2300, for taking the time to respond to me. As you mentioned, it's incredibly challenging when someone has only experienced negativity and isn't currently experiencing anything to offset it, despite their efforts with various techniques. Nonetheless, I've made the decision to try again. Thanks once more.

Interesting to realize that westerners didn't actually think of spirit outside of religion, until only a few years ago. Eastern religions are based on spirit as being part of who we are. Come to think of it, even today, (with all due respect) Christians in the US will argue that spiritual & religious are not separate & they think being religious is being spiritual - THAT's where they simply don't get it!! Interesting show!! Namaste 🙏From USA!!

@cc1k435 5 ай бұрын

Agree. I don't know loads of Christians who get that, sorry to say. Some, but most seem to not be tuned in to that at all. They seem to think of it as "foreign" or even against Christ, somehow. 😢

@AnalytiCritic 3 ай бұрын

@@cc1k435 So True!! I know a highly educated Catholic lady who told me privately she believes "yoga" is against Christianity" - I've been itching to tell her Yog means "knowledge" - also this "anti-Christ" comes up a lot - fear that they COULD be wrong & won't go there!? Believe it or not, another highly educated person claimed Christians believe "Jesus is a Jealous God" - MANY believe that HE will be offended if they show INTEREST in another religion or ANYthing that's contradicts the Bible - (As if HE wrote it, himself!?) IGNORANCE is shocking when it comes from people with influence, isn't it!?

@@brendalarue4690 Thank you for the great thoughtful question. What I loved to do as a young child, as in elementary school: Be out in nature, especially among trees. Read and project myself into the stories. Active fantasy life and wonderment of the world. Have/need a lot of alone time. Enjoy dogs. Enjoyed picking out clothes and putting a wardrobe/ensemble together. Enjoyed playing the flute in band class. Loved popular music of the day and dancing around in the living room. Probably enjoyed playing with boys more than girls. Rather “boy crazy” in that sense. I was athletic. Loved fantasizing about what “could be.” How things could be different, better. I was a “good” kid and a people pleaser. It’s taken me a lot of years to get over that and I still hate to disappoint people. As an older child, and into high school, I discovered theater and played a lot of leading roles in plays and musicals. And I did a lot of professional theater. But I stepped off the stage 17 years ago to become a self-employed Senior Caregiver in private homes. Now in my late 60s, I do not have a burning desire to get back on stage.

I agree. This was more about identifying parts of yourself that are preventing you from knowing or living you true purpose. I was about knowing when to persevere through something that is difficult as apposed to putting yourself in an unhealthy situation. Ultimately our purpose has to be bigger than a family or career, because if we lose that, how do we continue. Ultimately our purpose is to love. Victor Frankel wrote Man’s search for meaning after being in a concentration camp in World War 2, and basically having loved ones and things to look forward to give us meaning. I think you want to know more of what’s you passion in life. And for those of us that are unsure, it’s usually that love for something we hid as a child because or family mocked and ridiculed us for that interest. Like if you wanted to be a dancer but your dad made you do sports or if you love hair and make up but your family went to an ultra conservative church. Things like that. I hope that helps. I’m right there with you. Good luck friend.

My problem is, even though I know I have to choose optimism, I cannot do it, no matter how hard I try. I've tried affirmations. No good! Temporarily, I feel optimism, but it soon fades away. So, does this mean that one cannot change their archetype consciously.

@cindyhalpern3187 3 ай бұрын

This young woman is hurt inside. She was taught to be pretty, to focus on that. She is bright, but she was never encouraged. She needs to trust herself. This is so much deeper than what the guest speaker is saying. The speaker is clever, she is smart, but she is missing the essence of Carrie. I think the speaker is overly sure of herself. She needs to be more open to her own self. She is not all knowing. She must listen more.
