When Will My Life Get Better?

Many of my clients share their challenges, burdens and suffering with me, be it external or internal, from the experiences life throws at them, the internal chattering mind, physical pain, or overwhelming emotions. 
 
Despite the situation, the question is often the same: “When will this end?!!”  This might also lead to the question, “It will end right?  Things will get better?”
 
While all our challenges are unique, the nature of them is completely different than in the past.  We have an opening now, a new reality to step into.  In this reality, anything that we do for ourselves, we do for the entire collective on the planet, not just now, but throughout all timelines, past, present and future.   How amazing is that?  Can you even wrap your mind around it? 
 
Taking a traditional perspective on our pain, suffering and challenges works as well as it does.  We think, “One day, when I’ve overcome or gotten rid of this problem, then I’ll be happy.”  In this day and age, the problems of the world require solutions outside of our traditional thinking. 
 
I know you want reassurance that it will get better, and soon.  I know it not only can, but will.  However, it is you and you alone that has the choice and power to have the experience that it will, and can, get better.
 
Yes, sure, if you’re reading this you’re looking for me to give you the answer.  My answer is that YOU have the answer, the power, the strength, the courage, trust, love, breath, the soul and spirit, to have anything that you want.  It is your destiny, like it or not!
 
Why wouldn’t you like it?  Because your “get better” lies in the present moment of your experience.  It’s not one day – some day, when my finances are handled, I have the perfect relationship, vibrant health, ideal weight, unending positive thoughts, everlasting joy, unbridled passion, cool spiritual experiences, superpower intuition, complete freedom to be, clarity of life purpose, or “add your own here.”
 
You were born to thrive, and born to grow, expand and learn from any experience you are having.  Can you imagine a world crumbling around you, pain and suffering all around you, death, destruction, even fire and brimstone, and there you stand, in the center of it all, in peace, in trust, with an open heart and truly knowing all is well?
 
It’s time to let go of, or at least soften our grip, on the reins of what we think reality is supposed to be, feel and look like.  Nothing, and I mean nothing, is the boss of you.  YOU are the master of your reality.  You hold the magic wand and elixir of everlasting life.  It’s YOU! 
 
How do you get to the space of remembering that? By absolutely being committed to remembering and living the truth of who you are.  You are not your circumstances, your pain, or your suffering.  They call you to remember, just as a nightmare screams at you to get your attention so it can share an important message.
 
If your circumstances don’t equate to your quality of life, what does? 
 
It is your consciousness, your state of being, that determines the quality of your life.  It’s each choice in action that is aligned with your soul’s calling.  Oh, don’t worry, you know your soul’s calling.  It calls you to love, enjoy, bless, and appreciate.
 
The other morning, I noticed I felt anxious upon waking.  I did my simple practices, such as breathing in peace and breathing out blessings of peace for all.  It took just a minute, and there I was, in peace at that moment.
 
Know that things really are intensifying.  It’s not just you.  Whatever is personally happening for you, you can choose to breathe and know that there is a rapidly increasing intensity of the shift happening.  Fighting against it, waiting for the challenge to be over, will not speed up your personal process. 
 
Changing the way you view yourself and your life is what is called for in this moment.  This is the moment you’ve been waiting for.  It calls to you again and again to choose a new way of being that transforms any circumstance in your life.  That way of being is one of connection, love, abundance, peace and joy. 
 
In any moment, you can choose to say, “I am committed to this shift happening inside and around me.  I choose to see myself and my life as a gift, as a game, as a opportunity to cultivate a new way of being.” 
 
I know, I know, you might be thinking, “How could you possibly see your pain, frustration, financial challenges, illness, anxiety, loss, confusion, or upset in your relationships as a gift?”
 
There are some gifts that we want, and some gifts that we need.  Anything that is occurring in this moment is a gift. 
 
How can you access the gift in your situation?  By ACCEPTING it. 
 
Say, “Yes, thank you for this gift!”  It doesn’t mean that you have to like it, or that you’re not disappointed, or that you wouldn’t prefer to have a gift you’ve been really wanting. 
 
It does mean that you say, “I accept this gift.  I know that this is what serves me most right now, as crazy as I think that may be.   I trust that this gift is one that serves my absolute highest good and growth, and is more powerful than I could ever imagine.”
 
Once the gift is accepted, it can unfold its magic and miracles.  It will call you to take actions that are for your highest good and well being, and the highest good of all people everywhere.  The best gifts don’t always come in pretty packages. 
 
It is your conscious choosing to see all of your experiences as a gift, with thankfulness and gratitude, with trust, that can have you stand at the center of absolute chaos and destruction and feel centered and peaceful. 
 
It’s ok that you find yourself wanting things to be different, to be better.  Please take heart that you have the power to do this right now, despite any circumstance. 
 
Accepting that this moment is your greatest gift, without trying to get rid of, fix or change it, allows movement in your life.  Change occurs most easily when we surrender to what is occurring right now, when we choose to believe that right now is exactly where we are supposed to, how we’re supposed to be, and are divinely destined to be.  It allows us to breathe and lighten up! 
 
May you be blessed with the joy, laughter, peace, relief and love that is accessible to you at any moment.
