If we want to emotionally survive in this world, we’ll want to learn to roll with the punches and let things go. Things will happen each day that we’d rather ignore or hide from, and the best thing we can do is embrace them and ask ourselves how we can solve the problems they’ve presented.
Or, we can hide away and hate the world for the challenges it gives us. It’s easy to stay rooted in our own negativity, which can pop up at random times over silly things that, when we look back on, we wonder why we reacted so strongly to, but happiness will seem further and further away if we do.
I’ve had plenty of experience with the self-created negativity that comes with facing challenges, and it’ll get us down and keep us from shining our light all day if we let it. It’s far more worth our time to willingly meet the challenges we face as we flow through life, but as long as we let it, the mind’s rigidity will keep us from handling challenge in a centered way.
The mind has a lot of rules, judgments and expectations, and the moment something happens that we don’t care for or we wish would just go away, it sends out all kinds of negativity that can cause us to sink down into depression.
Little do we know that all we need to diminish the mind-centered rigidity that hinders us is unconditional love, and together with an open mind, love will make every challenge easier and more worthwhile.
