Meaningful path

With all its goings on, life often seems like an intentional assault on you. But that’s rarely the case.

Your best approach is not to take it personally. The distractions and frustrations are just part of reality.

You can accept that reality, with all it encompasses. Then you’re able to keep on going in the direction of your original intent.

There was a time not so long ago when you felt peaceful, focused, confident, filled with purpose. You were in that state, and now you can get back to it again.

It’s not as far away as it seems. In fact, just thinking about being more peaceful starts to get you feeling more peaceful.

The petty interruptions and distractions will come and go, and through it all you can continue following a meaningful path. Know that deeply, and no mere distraction will have the power to distract you for long.
