Disappointment

We will always be disappointed by that which is external.

We have the choice of what to do with that disappointment.

Depending how deep the disappointment was, we may choose the need to hold on tight and cry.  We may also choose to let go and be in the moment to try to see the whole picture.  Depending on how frustrated we are with the disappointment, we may hold on tight with fear or let go with something greater than the disappointment, Love.

Why?  What's the matter with holding on tight?  Sometimes holding on tight is a clue for us relax our grasp and loosen up a bit. We will always be disappointed.

But wait, you're the only one you can control!  Sit with your disappointment, own it, sooth yourself.  Let the tears fall, let yourself relax into relinquishment.  Let it go.  You will find that which you seek in your center. Can't do that? Can't let it go?  I know, it's tough, but you need to align with your courage.  Align with your self confidence. 

Weave that disappointment in your life's fabric.  Proudly display all the beauty it brings to the outwardness appearance of your fabric. It adds another element that shows your complexity and yet it is something simple that others resonate with. Just think!  Others will resonate with you and support you with all that you need! All those disappointments will resonate with such a wide variety of people! Just sit with that for awhile. 

Think of all your disappointments.  Think about all the people that supported you with your disappointment.  The stranger that smiled at you and made you feel better.  The stranger that was standing in line behind you that felt your pain and sent Love to you.  The stranger that sent Love to you as you cut them off on the Highway because you were too distracted with pain.  You know we're all in this together.

Share the Blessings you receive when it passes because one always needs to celebrate that which makes us stronger.
