Master the idea of what does not matter

As you go through a typical day, you come to realize unexpected events do not have to shake you up.  Have you mastered the idea of what does not matter?

Recently, when I was moving, my related experiences were anything but smooth sailing.  I had planned to pack and move smoothly, but things did not turn out that way. I realize I was being tested, just like you are, every moment of every day.  I decided foibles did not matter.  Have you ever been in a situation where if something could go wrong, it did?

You may decide events are not meant to unfold as you initially predicted.  Challenges are actually good for you.  Rain enables flowers to grow even if it adds a curve ball to your move. When cleaners do not show up as scheduled, you can view this as an opportunity to expand your compassion and understanding. Remind yourself that the world does not revolve around you, but your thoughts and intentions.

If everyone seems to want something from you just when other deadlines are approaching, if the phone does not stop, you do not have to answer it.  You choose to view this as a distraction or not.  Sense every moment as an opportunity to sense something good. What matters is the good you do for yourself and others.  You are evolving to master your soul.  This means perspective widens, if you align with intention.
