Important Lessons are on the Way

 

Usually a lot of things are too overwhelming for me. That´s okay. I´ve learned about that´s being part of the life of a Highly Sensitive Person.
What I still find extremely unfair is that at one point I feel like the King of the World ... and in the next minute everything´s coming crushing down on me again and I feel like the biggest looser ever!
Why won´t I see that coming?
Why can´t I avoid that?

Well, I´ve learned some important lessons lately. 

Or to be frankly honest, I knew them before already, but I didn´t know-know them still. Means I heard them before somewhere. I was taught some of the lessons years ago already - and I agreed on them - but were not able to adapt them into my life.

First lesson learned: That´s totally fine!

It was not a waste of time and it was not a failure to not "believe" in them right away. The manifestation obviously happened at the exact right time - namely. when I was ready and able to believe in them!

At the moment there is a fascinating pattern shown in situations triggering me:

Right now, and I mean exactly in that minute, the third situation of this kind is happening:

I came to my favorite restaurant to have a nice meal and a delicious hot chocolate, while chatting a bit with friends and get some writing done. It should have been a cozy evening ... but I have two German speaking guys in front of me and I am NOT able to fade out their loud conversation which topic slowly really makes me crazy!

A situation where I would have completely freaked out about in the past - but right now I am able to see the real message behind.

This necessary process is happening automatically already. And, Boy, am I proud of myself that I´ve learned that important lesson!

1. Look at the situation without judging. Objectively watch what is happening.

2. Listen to yourself. What is going on inside of you? Anger, sadness, rejection, upcoming of an personal topic ...?

3. Ask yourself what could be the reason of this particular situation triggering something inside yourself (more than other things). 

4. Give it time. Observe, go with it and let it happen.

5. Be aware of that "voice" inside of yourself which will present you with all the necessary answers eventually. 

Receiving those answers causes a chain of really amazing reactions:

1. The "negative" situation immediately turns into an informative and therefore positive situation.

2. You start to see the meaning behind the situation. Therefore anger turns into feeling grateful.

3. As soon as those stressful emotions are changed into more lighter ones, you start to even receive more information. It´s like you opened up for the right messages to come in and they can´t wait to show up.

4. Your Over-All-Picture is widening and you´ll get aware of how important the message was, coming "hidden" in a situation which would usually freak you out.

Because here is the thing!

The most important messages have to come with a big announcement. You would not think about the issue if you were not triggered, motivated or inspired to do so. 

I love to be motivated and love to be inspired. Though some of the necessary stuff would stay unseen if it is not showing up in a very unmissable way. 

Cause, let´s face it, in the most difficult topics usually lie the most important lessons. 

There were times when I was scared about those difficult topics / situations.

There were times when I was annoyed about those difficult topics / situations. 

I still don´t like them ... but now at least I am able to detect the real reason of their message behind them. 

And you know what is the best part of it?
As soon as you get the message behind them, they don´t have to show up again!

Don´t get me wrong. It doesn´t mean that I will never ever have loud German speaking guys sitting next to me when I want to focus on my own stuff ...

But they will not stir that much stressful emotion inside of me anymore. And if they do, maybe they have to teach me another lesson or they simply have to show me I don´t have a good day, aka try to change your attitude NOW! 

What I am trying to say is that everything´s happening around us is happening for our own benefit. Really everything!

It´s okay to still be stressed by it or annoyed or angry ... but as soon as you change your way of dealing with it, you will benefit from the lessons wrapped up in everything that is triggering you in any shape or form. 

Those are by far my biggest chances to grow out of everything I have to get rid of or to learn the lessons which are important for me to learn. 

Sometimes I was expecting an important answer to an important question, but I was not able to figure them out. Maybe they were presented to me in a more relaxed and nicer way before already, but I was not able to spot them.
So they showed up in a way I couldn´t overlook anymore ... because it really WAS IMPORTANT to get the answer ... RIGHT NOW!

Thank you, Universe!
