Inner peace, calm, and equilibrium are the keywords one searches for, especially when one feels their life route takes an unexpected turn.

When we think we have found balance in all areas of our lives, an unfamiliar life experience invites itself in and swishes us from our "comfortable chair". The new life experiences come into our journey to tell us that our apparent understanding of all things is incomplete and to help us learn something new. 

We cannot master Life no matter how much we wish to. We don't even need to! Attempting to do it will result in a significant challenge. One must not try to master Life but live it through its core. 

There are times when Life gets so mysterious only to show its great wisdom and tell us: "My dear child. You learned a lot by now, but there is a lot more left to learn."  Rushing through life experiences will not help us learn faster or better. One must take the life experience as it comes, integrate it, stay with it, and intensely let the emotions that come along pierce into its being until they run their course. 

If one tries to suppress them or ignore them, they will stay deep within the same way when we were children. If we wish to accept our life experiences during our adulthood journey as our great teachers, we must find in every small or big life challenge that essential point we are missing by using our innate wisdom and our love.

By incorporating observation, objectiveness, and knowledge, we can gain insights into what we must learn. Our "gain" will be achieved only when we embrace our experiences as they are. This way, we will set them free and move to the next chapter of our lives.

Our life journey is like a curriculum. To study well, we need an extensive library from which we can borrow books one at a time. We need a lifetime to read all the books we are interested in. After every finished book, we realise there is still more to learn. What we often miss is the acceptance of things as they are.

Our comprehension of what it means to be human with varied emotions must find its completeness. One must do it intently with care and love. We are here on Earth to learn the essence of being human and the essence of Life.

Our brain map is perfectly designed and always works to our advantage. It needs to keep us in survival mode. We must live. It is its only concern. Our brain does not care if our emotions get entangled or run deep. 

When we fully understand that humans are complex beings with mind, body and soul, we will probably embrace our human condition. When life experiences take us by surprise, and we do not know what to envision for the next chapter of our journey, we must find comfort in knowing that our gift is Life itself and all it represents. 

Let the journey unfold as it is. As long as we breathe and our thoughts are still animated, we must let them flow with every breath we take.

Dare to take your time and learn from each experience of your Life. Dare to feel your emotions and embrace them. All you have to do is love them as they come so that you can free yourself from your ideal ideas of what your life journey must look like. Grow with them, evolve, and "fly" as high as possible to find your breath again.
