Notes From the Universe

                As I explained in my last blog titled “While My Computer Was at the Spa,” I had to take my computer in to get some viruses removed from the hard drive and update some other software. Unable to write my daily blog or even watch a class in the hypnotherapy course I am taking, I had plenty of time to think how I could best use all that “free” (ahem) time. It was still frustrating to not be able to use my computer at all, but I have no doubt that my hypnotherapy training helped me stay calm and even relaxed about the inconvenience.

Having said that, I was not surprised to notice that the first post I saw on my Facebook feed when I was finally able to log on was the following quote: “Patience is the key to paradise,” a Turkish proverb. Hmm… Was the universe trying to tell me something? Probably.

 

It was like a light bulb turned on in my mind. As I scrolled through my account, I found more related and inspiring quotes. The following philosophies helped to give me a new perspective on my situation. I hope you find them helpful, as well.

 

 “Adopt the pace of nature. Her secret is patience.” – Unknown

“Wherever you stand, be the soul of that place.” – Rumi

“When you forgive, you don’t change the past. You change the future!” – healinglightonline.com

“Being negative only makes a difficult journey more difficult. You may be given a cactus, but you don’t have to sit on it.” – 95.1 Shine FM

“F-E-A-R has two meanings: ‘Forget everything and run’ or ‘Face everything and rise.’ The choice is yours.” – Zig Ziglar

“In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.” – Eleanor Roosevelt

“Keep calm and Hakuna Matada!” – The Glitter Fairy
