Everything Is Going To BE Ok


What if everything is going to be ok?

Hasn't everything worked out so far?  Hasn't it all been ok?  "No!" You say.  I had this horrible thing happen and this other terrible thing.  Yes, we have had challenges, difficulties.

When I asked myself this same question a number of hardships came to mind.  Yes, I have lost money. I have lost cars.  I have lost  my home more than once.  I have lost friends.  I have lost family.  I have lost face.  I have lost my temper.  I think I have even come close to losing my mind.  And yet, as I sit her right now, everything is ok.

What if we knew everything is going to be ok as it is happening?  I think it is worth re-minding ourselves.  As I have worked at this it goes something like this.  The phone call comes and I go into panic.  The thing I have feared starts happening. I read the email and I start to worry.  He/she says this or that and I feel anger rising.  I begin to remind myself.  "Everything is going to be ok."  More and more I re-mind myself  more quickly.  "Oh yah.  NOW I re-memeber.  It IS
all ok."
