Yes, may sound a bit trite but...
Don't try to second guess the world and fight it. Go with the natural flow of matters.
We can sometimes intuit what is going to happen in our lives but we should not expect that to be an immutable fact. It's more like looking at a river and knowing shere it's going to g but if you get stuck in a eddy you mey suddenly find out you're going in some completely random direction.
One can't quickly force life to follow a certain path, only subtly nudge it in the desired way. Where it then decides to go it goes and you with it.

Damn, Timeless! You put into words a lesson I only recently figured out I had learned before. Not exactly but so close it's scary.
Like I said, GOOD to have you back [:D]

I am new on here just found the site today
I am feeling very low today whereas normally I am a positive person.
I am a Reiki Master/Practitioner and I meditate on a regular basis and focus most of my energy on helping people. I am a firm believer of creating your own destiny and working with energy and I use candle energy 2.
The reason why I am low is because sometimes no matter what you think you want or what you may ask for you fell blind to what is going to happen. I may think I know then something happens totally different and it shocks me!
I currently fell not in control of my situation and surrounding factors
has any1 got any words of wisdom which may help me out of this negative state?
Thanx very much
Sorry to hear about how you are feeling, but do understand I assure you.
I can't, and would not presume to offer you any specific advice.
However, a law of the Universe, in all spheres, is "like attracts like" in accordance with laws of correspondence and attraction. If you feel "low" or "negative" you will attract more lowness and negativity, and you could easily get stuck in a vortex involving these negative emotions. What you need to try to do is to instantly transmute these feelings into their opposite, positive attributes whenever they occur. Don't give them time to take hold, simply transmute them there and then. Also, if possible, spend time during the day, and in particular first thing in the morning, and just before you go to bed, imagining what you want most of all, including inner peace, happiness, etc. and anything else you need, and hold those thoughts in your mind. Affirmations would also help.
Due to the Law, you will then attract to yourself these positive energies, and you will feel so much better. Meditation of course is excellent - and you might like to conclude your meditation by visualising everything that you want to appear in your life.
Hope you feel better soon.
With best regards,
Adrian.
hello.
my belief is to go to the real truth about everything.
my experience is that things have been like a jojo all my life.
so when im down i know that things are bound to be better, wich means - nothing to worry about. and the opposite ofcourse, when things are good they are bound to fall again. raisings and passings all the time, even the atoms follows this, its not new but still we remain misserable because of it, we just dont want to understand this, striving for joy is nothing but understanding this law of rising and passing away is everything, because it leads to freedom from moods, you still have them but they are all naked and natural for you. the well known "middleway" is not a balance between good and bad but the understanding of their comings and goings. to stand in the middle of the way, just watching maby.

Yep. go with the flow of life and the world and don't attach overt meaning to events. Things come and go and any one one life's circumstances can be many things depending on everything else.
The story reminds me of another one regarding a stonesmith chipping away and being frustrated about his lot. I'll post when I have a half decent translation done [8D]

hello
thankyou to you all for your kind words! It has really helped me a lot
I already think this site is fantastic and I fell I may have found the place that I have been searching for, a place where I feel comfortable with like minded people.
Please can I ask another favour?
I have posted on the healing discussion board under eczema and energy. I would really appreciate it if some of you could share your knowledge and wisdom on that matter?

Suzi,
You have received some great replies. I just wanted to add that you might want to read the book "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle. He essentially talks about uncovering our inner nature (peace, joy, love...) which is independent of external events. I have recently been reading this and have found it to be very helpful in my journey.
By the way I am planning to take Reiki level II next week. Looking forward to it. [:)]
