No struggle we have is really new. It's another shade of the struggle that plagued us last week or perhaps last year. And we'll stumble again and again until we learn to quit struggling. The trying situations at work, or the personality type that irritates us, will always exist. But when we've come to accept as good and growth-enhancing all situations and all persons, we'll sense the subtle absence of struggle. We'll realize that the person we couldn't tolerate has become a friend. The situation we couldn't handle is resolved, forever.
The lessons we need to learn keep presenting themselves, until we've finished the homework. If we sense a struggle today, we can look at it as an assignment, one that is meant for our growth. We can remember that our struggles represent our opportunities to grow.

Apparently I'm having an AFGO moment on staying flexible?
Bless the reading fairies for pointing that out......

now is this really true? surely there are some struggles you are just not meant to have over and over and over
aren't there some things that you ought to just walk away from, and save your time and energy for the other struggles you may have?
not that I'm taking issue with the fairies - on no siree bob, they are one bunch I wouldn't want to have a struggle with
don't the reading fairies know that this is the holiday season and we don't have to grow until after the new year?
*snickering*
I'll let the reading fairies know, ladies! I'm sure they're just a tad confused..... *nodding smuggly*
