When Life Asks You Questions….

If you've got questions, you've got the answers!“The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge.“~Thomas Berger

As human beings we are full of wonder and curiosity. We ask questions, life asks questions of us, and there really is an art to asking the right ones. How can we find the answers if we don’t know which questions to ask?

Life asks you questions every day in answer to your questions and although this leads to more questions, those questions will point you in the direction of the “right” questions and eventually the answers.

You May Be Asking the Wrong Question…

If there are answers you’ve been seeking that don’t seem to come you are asking the wrong question. It is also possible the answers might be right in front of you in the form of more questions. More questions may indeed BE the answer! There really aren’t “wrong” questions but if you’ve been looking for an answer and you keep asking the SAME question, try changing it up by asking a different question. That said, life asks you questions and if you’re running about looking for an answer to the wrong question you are not paying attention to what your life is asking. It may be that life is answering your question by asking you to explore your inner sanctum.

You ARE Receiving the Answer to WHY… 

It’s important to note that the universe responds to your questions exactly as you ask them. Each time you ask WHY this or that is happening (or not happening) your answer will almost always come back to you with the same situation you’re asking about until you finally decide to “see” the answer you’re already receiving. The next time you ask WHY and you find yourself stuck in a repeating pattern of the same situation, change the question to “what am I learning or need to learn from this experience?”

Ask what (or whom) you need to let go of to move forward. Ask for help releasing the limits placed upon you. Ask to be shown the truth. You can also, and this is profound, ask for guidance to direct you to the real question.

“I’m always asking questions – not to find ‘answers,’ but to see where the questions lead. Dead ends sometimes? That’s fine. New directions? Interesting. Great insights? Over-ambitious. A glimpse here and there? Perfect.“~Lesley Hazleton

What if it’s NOT about finding THE answer but being guided toward growth and expansion as a way of answering life’s questions? What if you are being pointed in a new direction? What if there are great insights within the questions? What if the answers lie not in finding an actual answer but leading you to more detailed and direct questions?

If you’ve got the questions, you’ve got the answers! When life asks you questions, LISTEN.  Step up to the plate and answer from your heart. If the questions lead to more questions, go with the flow. As spiritual beings we came here to learn and to learn we must continue to ask questions. We are curious by nature and it is our questions about life and love and living that keep us vibrant and alive.~Shine Your Light Debbie

The Truth About Walking a Mile in Someone Else’s Shoes…

Walking in another's shoes“People generally see what they look for, and hear what they listen for.” ~To Kill a Mockingbird

Everything in life is seen from our own perspective. No matter how much we want to walk in someone else’s shoes to understand them and the challenges they may have, it’s impossible.

Even if you do step into their shoes you will still see things through your own filters. The best thing any of us can do is not to judge but to listen and hear as clearly as we can; To be kind and compassionate with each other.

In order to heal or help someone else you must clear your own filters first. You don’t have to take on someone else’s energy and feel what they are feeling. Doing that will only cause you discomfort. When you look at someone with a level of neutrality it helps you understand and it is that understanding that will allow you to comfort another. It’s not necessary to actually “walk in” their shoes.

It’s also important to realize that at some level each of us has chosen our journey and it’s up to each of us individually to seek a level of understanding within ourselves. That’s when the true healing begins.

Acknowledge the journey of others with compassion and kindness. Find neutrality so you can clear your filters and see things in a different light, from a new perspective with a new level of understanding.~Shine Your Light Debbie
