Betrayal..A Blessing?
Well, everyone or almost everyone has been through some kind of betrayal....be it from friends, people we dont know or even family....
well, it definately compromised and...... the trust from the party who was betrayed...the anger, pain, frustration and even bitterness created is inevitable when it happens...well, thats natural to feel that way...i believe that it is a blessing for us to go thru this times of darkness and pain....probably sounds absurd to many, but hey, life cant be good all the time right? if not it wouldnt be much of a challenge hey? When we are able to find peace and know how to find peace in our hearts, we see it then as a blessing.....
I wanna share about betrayal and maybe some other not-so-good-things that happen in life, seeing them as blessings...blessings in disguise...since young, my family has always had this 'thought' or 'postive mindset' whenever certain bad things happen, we always say, its a blessing in disguise....like something bad happened or something happened to 'block' what was to happen, in order to protect us from being harmed even greater or, to either experience something great in the near future...From something simple like it rained really heavily that we ended up not being able to play the rides at the fun fair...postively, i see it that, well, its probably not meant for me or us to be on the ride on that day itself, it could've ended up with something horrible happening to someone...might sound crazy to think as such or some self-console tactic, but it helps doesnt it? *winks* Others like, my loved one's illness and trauma is a blessing in disguise for the whole family, to find our way back to God, to Love and to Peace and Happiness...isnt it a magnificent blessing!! the amount of pain, guilt, suffering we went thru, were all blessings for us, the people we met along the way, to learn from, to give even at the hardest and to love our enemies, even if it means self-less thoughts for a brief moment....The humble will be made great! :) so many stories to prove that the humble and meek are the greatest in God's eyes...
Of course, when i was younger, i didnt really think much of it in terms of the future, cos as a child, what parents say, we usually take after and carry the traits of either and both parents somewhat....
well, it was when i became much older and wiser and more spiritually grounded that things, life, acceptance fell into place in regards to acceptance and understanding of life's journey, both good and bad...
For those who have read my earliest blogs about a miracle in my life (my family's life) would understand what im trying to convey here...
I always believe that things happen for a reason, good and bad, they are all for my good, our good, a greater good....ive relfected and revisited my life's journey's past memories (happy and sad moments of course) and well, im blessed to say that i do not regret anything i did, i did feel remorseful and pray to be forgiven, not only by God, but by friends or people around me... Im blessed because of all the good and bad things i have experienced. People betraying me for one, its really hard to see why we have to forgive them when they did something horrible to us when we are innocent...that was how i felt in the past, and i felt so darn bitter about how i was feeling and the anger that was raging but noone could see...i learned to forgive and forget as best as i can, and i find peace with in...cos when i started, i grew more love within....and thats all that matters isnt it? we just need to find the courage and humility to GIVE EVEN MORE WHEN IT HURTS THE MOST, or when we least feel like giving....That's sacrifice and humility...
Well, for example, enemies, its human to not want the best for them or laugh at them when things befall them or be happy when things dont go their way etc...you get my drift yeah, BUT it is when we can bring ourselves to do good to or for them even after them causing the anger, pain, frustration, that we can realise God's wonders of Loving and Living, finding the PEACE we need...it took me since 1997 to 2004 or 2005, to relfect, realise and see how life pieced itself together for me and my famly and i saw the whole picture of why things happened the way the did, the ups, downs with life threatening events, and im grateful they happened, for it to be what we are, who we are and to become as a family, and to know who i am, and will be in the future...i would've still been 'lost' if it were not to be....Thats why......Long story.....
If we can find the courage no matter how small, and put our pride aside, for just a moment, we will be able to see things with a clear mind and heart, and find peace in our dealings...we will see life with a whole new perspective...This God promises ALL OF US....to See that life's journey is a blessing no matter what obstacles or tyrannts we face in life that bring great disappointments and bitterness in life, we always look forward to what these bring more for us in the future ahead ofus...I know thru these, bring Life with Happiness, Peace and Love...
