In Times of Crisis, Do You Still Believe In Miracles?

Have you ever felt chewed up and spit out by life?
You are in good company. Everyone goes through trials.
When you consider all your “problems” to be Challenges to Rise to….
Life becomes a wondrous adventure.
Don’t let the obstacles defeat you!
Your challenges are designed to make you stronger and more compassionate, so that you will be prepared to fulfill your purpose in this lifetime!
It is important that you look at every trial as a chance to grow!
Serving Your Purpose Will Take Great Strength!
Recently I have been tried and tested.
You, too?
We are a bunch of animal lovers around my house. A few weeks ago our puppies got sick and before I had noticed they needed help, the girl puppy died. We saved her brothers, but we were all so sad and grieving the loss of that sweet little girl.
Not two weeks later, my daughter’s little rascal Maggie dog had escaped again and before anyone realized she was out, she got hit by a truck on the road in front of our house. That broke everyones’ heart all over again.
In the meantime, a close friend was going through torment over someone poisoning his dog. Evidently it wasn’t the first dog in the neighborhood to be poisoned, and the culprit hasn’t been apprehended.
My friend was being pressured by friends and family to put the poor dog down. It was extremely hard to watch!
After all, she was paralyzed for 2 days!
He fed her and gave her water with a syringe. No way he would “put her down until she was in pain”, he said.
I gave him my bottle of bentonite clay, and he gave her a dose every few hours, taking time to move her frozen legs and reposition her.
His sister came to his house and was so emotional, she held the dog and cried,
“Please let me take the dog and have her put to sleep!”
Still he refused.
Can you imagine how shocked I was on the forth day when the dog greeted me at the door?
No kidding!
Within a week, she was running, playing and FINE!
With all the heart ache in our house, this story of never giving up has given us solace in our grief and renewed our faith that Love and Compassion Are Blessings From God.
Sometimes it his hard to be faithful.
That happy little dog is a walking-tail wagging-miracle in my book.
I feel chewed up and spit out even though I’m at peace.
All the trauma has me feeling really run down and needing rest and recuperation.
Why is it, that I am not doing much to nurture myself? I also notice old sabotaging behaviors re-surfacing.
No wonder I have been dragging through the days.
I don’t want to hurt myself! So why am I sabotaging myself?
Luckily, I mastermind with an absolutely great group of ladies every Monday.
We normally talk about business strategy, blogging and the like, but the past couple weeks, the conversation has been about health to a great extent.
It amazes me how masterminding with Andrew Carnegie’s format brings about momentum towards positive change.
Masterminding with this Great Group has been just the support I needed during this difficult time.
They can totally relate! Each of them have had times in their life when they let self-care fall away. Just having them to talk to and cheer me on has really improved my attitude and motivation to take better care of myself.
Today I am back on my blog! I’ve missed you!
Let’s hope this painful period in my life has reawakened the passion that drove me to begin this blog in the first place!

Absolutely I do. No matter what the circumstance, I understand that it’s all by design. We can either live as a victim, or know that everything that happens is by design and in our best interest. I like to think that I find the “win” in every situation.
when it looks like shit has hit the fan, I understand that it’s just a stepping stone to something much better
Rob – @formerfatguy´s last blog ..Hello world!
AMEN Rob!
Always! Everything happens for a reason and it benefits you.
I find that statement never fails me. Sometimes it helps to ask myself, what should I be learning here?
Many blessings,
Carrie
