Lesson 72: The First Passage of the Heart...

So, today is about going back to the first passage of the heart which is pain. We tend to distract ourselves from really exploring this passage of the heart, and understandably so. If we don’t truly deal with our pain, it doesn’t allow our hearts to be open to receive. We can all work through our pain if we just allow the love and light in.

Today is all about thinking about what personal catastrophe, tragedy, personal chaos etc you’ve experienced lately and in what they have truly taught you about yourself. How have these experiences been a gift towards you? If you feel you’ve already passed through the passage of pain, just recognise where you are and appreciate the moment you truly surpassed your pain.

Right now, I don’t feel like I’ve been through a recent situation to have me feeling pain. If I’m thinking about where I am in life right now, my life has been going pretty good in comparison to last year. I think I still have lifelong pain that I hope to resolve soon via hypnotherapy. What I am still experiencing is chaos at work. With no real direction and manager from a recent restructure, I am still waiting for this to be implemented and have been in limbo for nearly 4 months now. I cannot deal with this type of environment. I need busy and a bit of stress to truly feel like my contribution to the company means something.

What I am learning is a decent amount of patience or lack thereof on my part. I am trying to overcome it but it just gets to me some days. I need answers and I need them now! I don’t like the thought of not knowing the status of my job and where it’s going. This experience just reinforces the fact that I value structure and a method of doing things. I think when everything is in order, it makes for a productive environment when it comes to work. If anything, this experience has highlighted the strong features I have in myself. I guess if I’m looking at this from passage of the heart, then this pain point does show that I can get through anything, even when my patience is pushed. So, I should really hold onto these characteristics to combat other situations.
