As we go through our lives we experience many new things. Some experiences are easy, make us happy and move us forward, and others are more difficult to navigate and may leave lasting scars. If we’ve been through a very intense and unpleasant event, and we’ve been hurt deeply or our way forward has been completely altered, we may feel the pain for some time. Everything we go through teaches us something, and not all lessons are positive. When we’re overcoming a difficult passage and must find a new way forward, we may feel bruised and uncertain. We may even begin to believe we will never succeed again, and choose to stand still and hold tight to what is familiar. We can live our lives any way we like and there is always the option of staying in the same place. But we are capable of achieving even our highest expectations and if we stand still we will never know how far we could go. There is comfort in familiarity and if we’re recovering from something difficult, staying close to what we know may help us feel strong again. But once we’re back on our feet and things have settled, we can start on a new road and begin once more. Life is filled with opportunity and there is nothing we can’t do. We can be courageous enough to let go of pain from the past and move forward with confidence. The road is long and we have much to learn. Walking forward and pushing ahead will help us become the people we really want to be. We are stronger and braver than we realize. There is nothing we can’t do. We can move forward and overcome any obstacle. Our lives belong to us and we will find happiness and success.
If we’ve been through a traumatic event and our lives have changed dramatically, it can feel like we’ve fallen into a deep well that is impossible to escape. The only constant in life is change. No matter where we are or what’s happening now, it will change. There is no way to hold anything in place forever. When it feels like everything is out of control and we are held down by pain or fear, we can step back and trust that soon things will be different. We are capable of managing anything that comes to us. Time will turn the tide, and we will find our footing again.
We cannot control what others do or what comes to us but we are always in control of our own lives. Our decisions are always in our power and even if we feel lost we can make our own choices going forward. There will always be another road to walk on, and another way to get where we want to go. Nothing is strong enough to hold us in place or take our choices from us. We can decide how we want to continue forward. Success is always there for us and no matter where we are now, there is a road that will take us to it.
Today if you’ve been through a difficult passage and are holding yourself in place, remember how strong and capable you are. There isn’t anything too complicated for you to overcome. Your life belongs to you alone and you can make excellent decisions. Look ahead and choose the road you want to travel. Be confident and begin forward. Everything you dream of is waiting for you and you will reach it.
