Conditions - accept difficult Conditions

01/30/2004

The conditions of life rarely correspond to what you desire or hope for. But instead of complaining, of rebelling, or of becoming discouraged, you must reflect and ask yourself questions: why has heaven arranged for precisely these people, and not others, to surround you in your family, at work or elsewhere? You must learn to consider these difficult conditions from another perspective, and even if you do not understand them, strive to understand that they have meaning, that they have a reason for being. And the more incomprehensible it is, and contrary to what you hoped for, the more you must have confidence in heaven and tell yourself that this will lead to the realisation of your best aspirations. Even if you are suffering at the moment, after a while you will be strengthened and assuaged; your relations with others will improve, and you will sense that the good influences of this work affect your health as well.
