When the Elevator Doesn't Work






"Life is not what it's supposed to be.  It is
what it is.  The way you cope with it is
what makes the difference."
Virginia Satir

It is a fool's journey to seek a perfect life designed to unfold in one particular way.   Life is nothing but change, so we set our lovely selves up for failure by not allowing wiggle room for both positive and negative experiences.  If we are rigidly focused on only one outcome without allowances for improvement or set back, we will be extremely disappointed.

It is entertaining to read the biographies of people who have achieved recognition.  The consistency in a formula for success doesn't seem to require a certain education, experience, or application of knowledge.  It does seem to expect a person to be moveable from one position to another, expanding or contracting original plans, and a belief in the heart's desire.  

Life is not always what we hoped it would be, but with the right attitude and flexibility we will find life does indeed support us.  We cannot perceive ourselves as being on an elevator viewing options, and getting off on the floor appearing to have the best accommodations. It is our energetic involvement that will trigger life opportunities where we can best flow.
