Wisdom From The Tree Of Life
By Aquarius
• Sometimes it’s necessary to meet the wrong people so that, when we finally draw the right ones into our orbit, we appreciate them as a precious gift that comes our way from the Highest levels of life. In truth, both types are equally valid because each one is merely teaching us a different kind of lesson. That’s all.
• When one door of happiness closes, another one is ready to open. Yet, if we look too long at the closing door, we are in danger of being unable to recognise the one that’s waiting to open for us.
• Life on the earthly plane teaches every one of us in its own sweet way. That’s why we usually do not know how to appreciate what we have, until we have lost it. Part of the same lesson is that we frequently do now recognise what we have been missing, until it arrives.
• The brightest future will always be based not on a forgotten, but a forgiven and healed past. We cannot successfully move on in life until we have let go of our past mistakes, failures and heartaches. Recognising and accepting each one of them as an essential part of the lessons of their present lifetime, wise ones give thanks and praise to the Highest Forces of life for every one of them. They then realise that there is no longer anything to forgive, themselves or anyone else.
• The best kind of friends are those with whom one can sit for a long time without saying a word and eventually walk away with a feeling of just having enjoyed the best dialogue ever.
• Always try to put yourself in the other one’s shoes. If it feels that something would hurt you, it is likely to do the same to the other person.
• Do something good, kind and loving for someone every single day, especially if that means leaving that person to get on with attending to their own lessons.
• Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you in return. To my mind, loving people without expecting anything from them is best of all. If your present lifetime’s lesson is learning to love the unloving, treat anyone who comes your way with love, because their heart may wake up and respond. If not, count your blessings that your store of love and wisdom has increased manifold and be thankful for that.
• True happiness waits for all who are now crying because they are hurt or have searched and tried in vain. They alone can appreciate the importance of all those who helped them work their way through the most difficult phases of their present lifetime as a physical being in the material world.
• Don’t go for looks, they can deceive. Don’t go for wealth, it fades away. Stay with those who make you smile. Many times it takes but a smile to make a dark day into a bright one. Always seek the company of those who make your innermost spirit/soul and heart smile.
• Pray for enough happiness to make you sweet, trials to make you strong, sorrows to keep you human and hope to make you happy.
• ‘To be nobody but yourself in a world that’s doing its best to make you somebody else means fighting the hardest battle you are ever likely to encounter. Never give up.’ E.E. Cummings
• ‘Do not allow yourself to be bullied into silence and being made a victim by anyone. Accept no-one’s definition of you and your life. Define yourself by always giving nothing less than the best that’s within you.’ Robert Frost
