When an event stands out and you feel confused or get emotional, this is a turning point. Much like pop singer Bruce Springsteen, you know how it feels to take One step up and then take two steps back. As you hesitate or stagnate, hard lessons jump out. Are you noticing patterns or history repeating? Are you ready to get the bigger message and move on to new lessons?
To shift from going backward to moving forward, imagine what it feels like to stop judging yourself or others and sense you are every aspect of the experience. Even now, you are gradually freeing yourself from being controlled by the past, by perceived pain, from from the idea of assuming everything that appears to bother you is separate. The energy of this thing/ event guides your movements, the acceptance of deeper feelings. You only cease resisting, or release whatever holds you back when you begin to accept your role in everything. Watch what happens as you begin to see yourself in the mirror reflected by that which irks or saddens you most.
