Our point of view directs our life. It influences our thoughts, feelings, attitudes and actions. When we shift our point of view, our perception changes and so do our lives. We are able to move in an entirely different direction. Where is your point of view taking you? Does it serve your ultimate intention?
When I was little, there were times when I really liked being in the middle, especially on a sled where I felt safer than being in the front or in the back. I enjoyed sitting in the middle of two friends at a movie. Many of us liked being in the middle of a crowd at school where it was easier to fit in and not get picked on or noticed if you were doing something wrong. But then there were games like "Monkey in the Middle" where you are in the middle and you had to try and catch the ball. This was a game that was not always fun. Or you were stuck in the middle of the backseat of a family car between two of your older siblings, with no window space feeling nauseous and sick to your stomach. This is when you began to understand that yelling shotgun before getting into a car gained a coveted position, that the middle was not always the best real estate.
Acceptance is a tricky quality to master. Most people mistake acceptance for agreement and therefore resist it. Acceptance does not mean that we give in or roll over. It means we connect fully with the situation. We stop struggling. We own the hand that we have been dealt and accept it without judgment. Once we do this a very interesting thing occurs, our life and the situation changes.
Our minds can be quite tricky, and if allowed to move freely without conscious attention, can take us on a wild ride. Everyday when things occur, our mind can guide us down a dark road or on a journey of light and self-expansion.
