Life is a challenge, no?  Lessons upon lessons.  Situations that bring self-growth.
Situations that make our heads spin. Sometimes the lesson is obvious, other times not so much.  Often the lesson to learn is relatively simple, yet complex in that the shift eludes us.  In all scenarios, however, Source has our back, and finds creative ways of manifesting situations in our lives to nudge us in the right direction.

Case in point:  in 2010, a friend and I were doing “swaps”.  She would work on me and, in turn, I would work on her.  (I gotta insert a plug for bartering here, such a magnificent model:  win/win!)  Picture the setup, as it is so relevant.  I am sitting on her couch, she is sitting on a dining room-type chair, facing me, pen and paper in hand.  As I focus in on what healing we are to do for her this session, I am drawn to an area across the space, behind her, and so get up and walk over there. Standing there, I understand that this is where I am to work from, and am kinda’ thrilled as there was a rug in this area and my bare feet were chilly.  Stay with me:  now I am facing her back.  I convey to her that I will be staying put and she is rather nonplussed and suggests that we move the whole darn rug over to the couch area.  By this time, I realize what is going on and replied, softly,
“Or, you could turn your chair around.”
She immediately laughed at the absurdity of her request.

What a great lesson, so beautifully and literally stated!  Most of us tend to want everything, everyone, else, to adjust to suit us rather than making a shift ourselves.  Becoming more self-aware often is as simple as turning one’s chair around.

Think of the possibilities next time you are experiencing conflict.
