Have you ever noticed how after a series of events, the same situation you started with still exists and you end up back at the place you initially chose to walk away from?
Even if we don’t believe in how the universe works, what is meant to happen will always find its way back to us. When things come full circle, we will always be brought back to that place. Whatever we were in doubts about will always come full circle, if that was the road we were meant to take initially.
That perhaps if we were more clued up or sure about ourselves, the things we let go of would still be in our lives. That we would make better decisions, rather than the decisions we go on to make and then find years down the line, we’re looking at those earlier decisions we perhaps should have made.
Life has a way of balancing and correcting. Timings, the decisions we make have a lot more to do with our perceptions and the decisions we go on to make. Positive and negative, good or bad timings are both equally occurring, but it’s easy to understand why we think bad and negative aren’t so much equal.
Bad things seem to take longer for us to work through than working through the good. There are lots of twists and turns, if only we understand those. We need to understand we are where we're supposed to be at any given time.
Coming full circle is fine, we mustn't fight against it. Knowing simply empowers us to understand the changes that we need to make. To allow us to see people and patterns occurring and deal with those differently.
Coming full circle means that we survived our lives and framed it.
But what's truly remarkable, is that with the gift of hindsight, we now know what's really important to us.
Thanks Tim. I absolutely agree with you, but would just add.
Hindsight is a good thing, but if we were to consciously think about things before we made our decisions, we wouldn't need to work in hindsight.
Hindsight may sometimes work against us, particularly if we end up doing something we should never have walked away from in the first place.
Granted we will have soaked up new experiences, but that depends on whether those experiences we're really right for us. Sometimes our decisions can spiral us into some very dark places.
After Hurricane Katrina, I came full circle when I returned to Beauregard Junior High School. But this time, I was a teacher extending my hand to my colleagues and students.
My younger self did the exact same thing to help my friend also earn the Presidential Physical Fitness Award. My adult experience there was special because I was able to remember all the wonderful things I had done for others.
In hindsight, I saw how kind and patient I was.
Hi Mary and welcome to the site. You absolutely were kind and patient. It was a lovely think to do.
Extending a hand is something we can all do. As you have shown wanting to is the first step to a life filled with wonder and amazement, putting ourselves out there for those who need it the most.
It is exactly why we're here and we're living a life. It is important we come to understand that fact.
