Night Time Believer

Ever wonder what's going on when it seems like you are out of favor with everyone and everything, when it feels like life is always nighttime? Every wrong turn has been preparing you for your destiny; you are being groomed for your comeback! The caterpillar, a simple worm consigned to an existence of crawling surely must feel like they were created to do so much more than crawling through life. Yet they may miss the opportunity as they are encased in a cocoon, hanging lonely and helplessly upside down. For them it also must feel like nighttime lasts forever. And then one day the cocoon falls away and they spring forth into a brand new existence where everyone is amazed at their beauty and grace. And so it is with the human.

Big things happen in the nighttime of life. We are forced to work in humility as we are preparing for greatness, for in the absence of humility there can be no greatness. We build character in the trenches of life as we are forced to overcome obstacles that may seem beneath who we are, solving problems we thought we knew the answers to. Yet in that darkness everything gets more complicated. We are forced to b discerning as our assets are dwindling. Worse, we are forced to face and defeat fear when we have so few choices before us. In the uncanny habit of life, once we crumple the paper tiger of fear many more opportunities are revealed. We have passed the biggest test in character building!

Victories are hard-fought and won in the darker times of life. We learn to magnify them when they are precious; this ushers in the next important lesson. What we focus on is magnified, what is magnified grows. The deep roots of success are planted in those hard-won victories. These lessons are transformational, leading us to the path of personal greatness.

This time is akin to sleeping in life, where all of our energy is committed to healing and growing stronger. When we are in our own personal cocoon we can only imagine what could be. It is a place where we can finally acknowledge that a bigger hand than our own must guide us through our hopes to achieve our dreams. Big things shift in the nighttime of life. When you are in the throes of the nighttime you are simply waiting on the night shift to show up and complete the transformation. It is the prelude to becoming the best we can be. All that is required is that you become a nighttime believer!

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
