“What we call
chaos is just patterns we haven’t recognized. What we call random is just
patterns we can’t decipher.”
Life has a funny way of
teaching us lessons. When there is something you need to learn, something that
you need to work on, the same situation will continue to repeat itself until
you either learn your lesson or find a
healthy way of dealing with that particular issue.
I Learned that not making a
decision is in itself a decision—and that my fear of change was
actually a fear of failure. That was when I noticed the pattern of things
breaking, or circumstances changing, forcing me to deal with my inability.
Some lessons take longer than others. Instead
of reacting to situations, when something comes up and seems familiar, try to
stand back for a second & think. It could be a
lesson in humility, or a lesson
in gratitude, or maybe you may need to learn empathy to see things from the
other person’s point of view. Instead of reacting all the time, every time
something challenging comes up it could be an opportunity to learn.
A good way of recognizing patterns in your
life is by listening to your feelings, your intuition. I’ve found that when I
am involved in a pattern, my emotions run a bit stronger, kind of like a
warning from my subconscious mind to pay attention to what’s happening. It can
be difficult to recognize a pattern while it’s playing out. So, usually we
realize what happened afterward.
In turn, life will continue to send us ways to overcome our
patterns & learn our individual lessons.
The key is to be alert. When you’re open to recognizing a
pattern, you can change it by learning the lesson & in doing so, change
your life.
