I know from my own personal story that it would have and could have been so easy to stop and quit at any moment.  To just pack it all in, turn around and go back to a ‘normal’ life…just like ’society’ would have preferred.  Something inside me would not let that happen though.  I don’t know if it was the blessing of having an ego and being a stubborn Taurus or if it was the resiliency of that Powerful Spirit that is inside all of us that continued to encourage me and say, “Get back up, try again, you can do this…”

Life tends to knock us around sometimes, often giving us scrapes, bruises and the odd deep gauge.  Isn’t it a beautiful thing?  What doesn’t kill us, can only make us stronger?  We must be resilient beings, never accepting failure as the End-point, but only as a new beginning.  We must learn to stand up, smile – especially through the pain, sickness and hard times that are inevitable, because nothing in life is permanent.

As a Human Race, we must be resilient.  We must stand up, even when we’re weak, even when the future looks bleak. If we are feeling strong, then it is our responsibility and opportunity to help out someone else, because you can count on it that we will need them at some point or another.  All generations to come are cheering for us on the sidelines.  They depend on it.  This beautiful planet we’ve inherited depends on it.  The existence of Life on Earth depends on our resiliency.

Meditation is a powerful practice to recharge your battery when you’re feeling at your lowest.  It is also a great tool to gain a new perspective when you feel blocked or stuck.  Try it, and do it often.  It may be your Life Raft when the going gets tough!  If you’re in Victoria, feel free to join us for tomorrow mornings’ meditation. You may otherwise, email me to get your very own ‘Cowabunga Meditation’ mp3 to practice staying stronger and becoming more resilient!  (email:  BradiDude@Gmail.com)
