Enjoying The Sightseeing Of Your Life (Part 2)

2. We often go out of our way to meet people on a tour. We spend lots of time with these people seeing new sights and experiencing new things. Similarly, in life, we should remember that everyone we meet is here to teach us something. In this way, we can see someone who hurts us as someone who is teaching us to work on ourselves on a spiritual level and create a complete inner personality full of all qualities and powers. We see someone who praises us as someone who is reminding us of our good qualities, but we should not get carried away by the praise and make the quality even stronger and use it to give peace, love and joy to others and make our life even more positive with its help. This way of thinking will also help us to improve our way of perceiving and responding to different events in life and make them all easy to manage with inner strength and contentment.

Giving importance to the lessons learnt gives us the key to positive change, which will make us feel empowered, instead of shrinking under stress.

3. Becoming a tourist helps us to take some of the fear out of travel. We enjoy every sight, which is higher or lower than us, because we believe that it’s accessible to us as tourists and we just can’t create this kind of experience on our own at our homes. Similarly, situations can sometimes be challenging and difficult and sometimes they can be easy and comfortable, but if we deeply realize that they are just settling our negative actions of the past in our birth-rebirth journey and creating a purer inner being and filling us with some deep learnings about life, they will not cause any permanent negative changes in our lives.

The real strength emerges from the courage to pack up and leave our comfort zones, moving from familiar and safe places, to experiencing unknown things through different situations which are sometimes unpredictable, just like we do on a travel journey.
