To Alter Our Situation May Help Transform Our Life

Is it possible to alter our situation? And how would we go about it?

What would we want to change anyway?

• what are we unhappy about ?
• what more could we reasonably want or need?
• how have we not fulfilled our expectations?
• who expects us to have done more?

by whose yardstick are we comparing ourselves with others

But is this because we see others having a 'better' time? Or that we are disappointed by our own actions or contribution?

How can we make amends?

• try a bit harder next time
• accept the advice of others in good faith
• cooperate with others rather than always trying to go our own way
• realizing that not all things are meant to be
• learning along the way and putting those lessons to good effect in the future

But would we like it if things were different?

• would we feel like a duck out of water?
• are things like they are for good reason?
• would we recognize ourselves any other way?

Would the transformation be all too much for us?

• would we miss the old us we left behind?
• would we rather live that life than the new exciting one before us?
• would we feel we have changed just for the sake of it?
• would we have adjusted our slant and way of life for the right reasons?

Would we be able to look to the future with confidence and motivation?

• feeling that life now was really moving ahead for us?
• feeling that we could at last start to find ourselves and our purpose?
• feeling that we are now on the road to discovering our true selves?

Because we would not be ruing the day when we started on this road to discovery. On this path to finding a better life, one with more meaning and purpose, wisdom and understanding.

That as one door in our life is maybe closing another has opened.

And with the dawning of a new day our life will really be on a new level.

A level of greater fulfillment and contentment.

And a life where our thirst has been quenched and our hunger has been satiated.

If we alter our situation, we can then take our first steps into this new day with excitement, enthusiasm and a real sense of anticipation for what lies ahead for us.
