IT IS NOT WAR, OR A STRUGGLE UNLESS WE MAKE IT SO
WE DESIGN THE LIFE WE LIVE
There must be a reason we chose difficulty. That is for us to discover.
“Wait! I did not choose these unfair, troublesome times. They were thrust upon me. I don’t deserve this struggle. So many are gifted with easy, rich lives. Why not me?”
Good. You have already discovered one of many reasons you have this life. What you fail to remember, understandably, is that you aided in the design of this life before coming here to live it. You knew and know the lessons you are to learn. You and guides, friends, designed this life best to learn the lessons yet unfound.
“Bullshit!! Where do you presumptuously get off preaching to me like this? How the hell do you claim to know the secrets of my life that I don’t know? Who in their right mind would chose to live a tortured life like this? And, how do you claim to know my prelife conditions? You are acting like an arrogant ass, a know-it-all with divine knowledge. Go to hell”.
Thank you for honestly speaking your mind. That is a step in the right direction.
I speak to you as I have learned from 88+ years of inquiry regarding the same issues in my life. No, I do not claim that age brings wisdom, but some learning can occur, given enough time and difficulty. I have learned more than I knew when I was 21 and thought I knew everything. There is so much more to learn!
