Lesson 318: Those Who Seek the Dark...

“Those who seek the dark, do so to be in pain. They believe it is easier to stay there; but it is not. If you are in pain, if you are still moving from pain into compassion, take a look at this now.”
— Sara Wiseman

Today is to move some pain into light. That’s where we are all headed in the end right? We can ask ourselves to move pain into compassion right now. There is nothing stopping you from transitioning like this.

I sometimes forget about moving my issues from pain to compassion and then connection. I sometimes have reminders that pop up in my life through subtle angelic messages and synchronicity. I was wallowing in some dark emotions recently but I was reminded by some positive affirmations to think about all the good I have in my life. I watched a facebook video recently that I had seen a year or so before. This video had colour blind people receiving those special glasses to help them see in colour. A lot of these people started crying as they saw colour for the first time. It reminded me of all the things I take for granted. I had been looking at my life of all the things I didn’t have, when right there and then, I had the pleasure of seeing in colour. Something I don’t think about as being a gift and yet some people go every day without this simple pleasure.

I decided there and then to start a gratitude practise of just saying some thing out loud of what I am grateful for. I didn’t need to be in the pain of whatever I was going through – I just needed to change my thinking. I moved from pain to compassion. It’s something to keep up for sure. I am not perfect and don’t always remember these lessons, but I find, there is always something trying to remind me.

What did you overcome today?
