Finding Meaning

Most of us want our lives to have meaning. We often interpret events after they happen in a way which turns them into a story, which in turn brings more meaning into our lives. We create a whole story about our lives and the meaning that it has for us. And then having created that story we believe it. In fact often we believe it so much that it becomes a core part of ourselves. And this story could be based on what happened years ago, in the past. But because we have this story, this belief about ourselves and others, it not only limits us but also our relationships with others. And then we wonder why we feel stuck . . .

The joy of being able to live in the present moment is that we don't have to believe the old story that we've told ourselves for years. There is the opportunity to create anew . . .
