Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

The Gift In Post-traumatic Growth, Codestiny Sheryl Sandberg

By Patricia Price


When something tragic happens to you, the most that you can do is crawl into a corner and cry. But once this stage has passed, you will find that you are a brand new person. Thanks to Codestiny Sheryl Sandberg, by using this experience to become better and feel better, you can reap the rewards of a new life.

The nice part about leading a simpler life is that you will soon find that you don t have time to waste on those who are not around to support you. Ultimately the people that you let in are meant to be a bit of your growth process and when you identify that they are not, it won t be hard to ask them to leave with no return.

Exercise is a beautiful mechanism that you can use for two reasons. The one is that you need to stay fit so that your mind has a partner to match. And the second is that when you go through something difficult in life, it helps to have a hobby or some sort of tool that will basically remove that problem from your mind for a short period. This is actually a healthy element if the habit is not a bad one.

The social factor that comes into play is just as important. When life goes back to normal and you are expected to get back to work, you will find that it is much easier to communicate with colleagues. Prior to this, you would probably shy away at every chance you get whereas now, you are the brightest star in the room.

Anxiety is a concern in many ways. Mainly because you struggle to live a normal life since any small incident can tick you off and send you into a frenzy. The good thing about getting in touch with yourself is that sooner than later, you will begin to let go of whatever you are feeling and you won t be phased by the scenario that has no direct impact on you. It can take time but will be the long lasting solution for you.

This is a wonderful opportunity to use your experience to your advantage to help other people. It is not an easy process. In fact, some people remain damaged throughout their life which isn t fair when you can help them to see the light. You may do this on a voluntary basis and help even children get over their trauma. You can also focus on adults, both male and female.

It is also quite easy to get hold of places where you may volunteer your time. Many shelters which home abused people or even drug addicts with nasty experiences are literally around the corner from everyone. They are always needing the extra hands. You can sign on as a motivator, a speaker or even just as a person that floats around and gives them upliftment.

The moment you find a solution or the path that is opening for you with no blockages, this means you are in the right direction and life will become simpler. It will make more sense when you start to find what you were destined for. It will build your self-esteem and the trust in life.
