When we surrender our will and understanding to that subtle voice within our higher power, we sign up for an AWESOME and EPIC adventure in finding ourselves. We won't know what's going to happen next, but we know that if we follow our program we will always be taken care of. The first thing that usually happens when we surrender is that the shit literally hits the fan. Time and time again, whether we are consciously or unconsciously walking on The Path of Recovery, the shit will hit the fan.
Our limited perspective from our minds will want to see moments like this as bad, negative and horrible. It's only natural. When something tragic, unplanned or painful happens, it makes total sense to see that event as a negative. BUT - because we have NO idea what is going to happen in the next moment or in the next year as a result of these seeming disasters, we cannot, if we are tapped into our Recovery, label them as bad, negative or disasters. The mind that is aligned with recovery simply observes these circumstances and chooses not to label them. We feel the feelings that come with each circumstance, but we do not let them define us or keep us stuck in a rut.
We let the feelings come and go like a gust of wind - unattached and aware. Because we do not know what is going to happen next, if we choose to prevent or resist the present moment, we may actually be interrupting and stopping a miracle in progress. EVERY time something has gone to shit in my life, it's turned out even better. This is because I choose to see every seeming disaster as Grace and then take empowered action from that place of recovery. Consider that when things are falling apart in your life that it is actually Grace and celebrate the end of a chapter in your life and ride the wave so you can be reborn, smarter, wiser and with even more Love and Understanding in your heart. Choose to see even THIS MOMENT as a miracle in progress, and then get out of your own way.
