Feeling Discouraged?

In response to a question posted by my friend --


SAGE TOPIC: Overcoming Discouragement

What are some ways that you overcome discouragement in your life?


I gain comfort in knowing that there is perfect progression in all things and that I am where I am and feeling what I am feeling for a reason. You can not have the good without the bad; you can't have the rainbow without the rain.


"There will come a time when you believe everything is finished.
That will be the beginning."

~ Peter Nivio Zarlenga


Having spent my youth in chronic depression I've come to learn that there is sooo much to be thankful for and that my being depressed and/or discourage does not benefit anyone.

If you are in gratitude, it is impossible to be depressed or discouraged about anything.


"Every step is an end, and every step is a fresh beginning."

~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


If you ever find yourself depressed and/or discouraged - Stop... and look for a way to make someone else's day brighter. Make it your goal and your purpose to bring light to someone else. Magically... the depression, the discouragement seem to melt away and you find yourself in a state of utter gratitude and love.


Remember:

- There is perfect progression in all things.

- We are all beings of light and love.

- There is always someone worse off then you.

- Everyone comes in and out of your life for a reason.

- Find the reason behind the negative.


Become an agent of Light and Love:

Charge yourself with making the world a better place and every day,
every moment becomes a wondrous blessing.
