		<description>@Jocelyn, totally agree about happiness being able to last impermanently....after all, we are happy Beings at source....

@Davina, it is the same with me.  That&#039;s why it is a journey to rediscovering our Divine Selves.  I&#039;m not sure what &quot;there&quot; really really means but I know I do my best each day.  Peace to you always!</description>

		<description>Hi Evelyn.
I&#039;m not loving and compassionate all the time, as much as I would like to be. And I go through phases where it comes easier and phases were I am less patient with others and myself. I see myself taking two steps forward and one step back. I&#039;m getting there and know I&#039;ve come a long way.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s not easy to shift from anger to maturity, but when one is able to, happiness belongs to her already :-) a happiness of the lasting unconditional kind</description>

		<description>Arswino,

I am glad that you have made peace with your health challenge.  I appreciate that it must be difficult to be calm when you are undergoing so much pain.  

I wish you all the best with the upcoming surgery! 

May you be well and happy always,
Evelyn</description>

Thank you for sharing about your experiences in terms of health challenges.  I would never have known!!  You come across as sporty, enthusiastic and a very peace-loving person.  What a change, if your past history is really true!  

I wish to commend on your efforts in transforming your life!  I have a lot to learn from you. You are a true inspiration!

Blessings,

		<description>Patricia,

Thanks for your feedback about the writing of this post.  

I read with interest about the experiences you have been through in helping the kids.  I definitely agree that it is not easy for anyone who has gone through such traumas to be able to see if there are life lessons in there.  I appreciate that it can be that much harder with kids!  

I am in the midst of helping a few clients who have suffered abuse and traumatic childhood.  They have been bitter about their experiences in their younger days.  At the same time, they see a similar pattern with experiences in adulthood in all areas.  Without any understanding of past events, a willingness to let go and a conscious intent to consciously choose different experiences (and thereby seeing that there can be some life lessons), they are virtually stuck!!  

While it may be true that society is not changing fast enough to impact lives, I hope to focus on what I can do to help.  Every life saved from one of destruction counts! 

With much love and compassion,
Evelyn</description>

		<description>@Natural, thanks for your feedback to my post! 

@Squawkfox, we all have been negative at various points in our lives.  The question to ask ourselves is whether we are mostly negative or positive nowadays? I like that you are able to see the humor in things!!  It is an indication that you are able to make light of some of the challenges that you have.  You are experiencing a shift in perspective.  

@Omar, hmmm...wanting others to agree with us is in other ways saying that we are &quot;right&quot; and others are &quot;wrong&quot;.  I&#039;m glad to know that you have reached a place where you can ease up on your previous stance to things. All the best!</description>

		<description>Robin, 

Thanks for sharing a fabulous tip when we get on the road.  I have never thought of consciously intending for pleasant journeys.  Mostly, I &quot;ask&quot; for safe ones.  Great suggestion you have there!!  I&#039;m going to use it too, even though I seldom come across drivers who drive thoughtlessly.  

It&#039;s also great to know that I am not the only one who actually takes the time to truly investigate my innermost feelings, when events are not turning out well.  The irritating small issues certainly present wonderful opportunities to work on ourselves! 

Abundance always,
Evelyn</description>

		<description>Hi Evelyn,

I like the title : The school of life.
A few years ago I began to have a disorder on my jaw structure which often causes tenses on my neck, shoulder and head until now. Because of it, I often get emotionally stressed, but in the end I realized that it is useless. Now I consider it as a company while I am waiting for it to be operated. 
In a point of view I am grateful because with this event, my patience is tested.

Thank you for sharing this article, Evelyn. :)</description>

		<description>Hi Evelyn,

I will share one experience in my life that has led me from negative to peaceful and loving.  Today I feel more at peace than I&#039;ve ever felt - and it&#039;s a great place to be.  That&#039;s not where I&#039;ve always been.  And I&#039;ll focus on my health and diet.  Several years ago - I had become unhealthy and completely lacking in any control of my diet.  At the same time, I was becoming more lethargic and negative about the world around me.  Finally, I made the decision that I didn&#039;t want to live a life that was unhealthy anymore.  And I have since dramatically improved my physical health.  That&#039;s not the point here, though.  In that same time, by focusing on living healthy - this evolved into much more than just being physically healthy.  I also became much more mentally/emotionally/spirtually healthy.  And to the point today, where I feel my soul being touched in so many ways - and me connecting much more deeply with what truly matters to me today.  Getting to this place hasn&#039;t necessarily always been easy - but getting here has been so worth it.

Evelyn, thank you for the reminder here that sometimes the challenges we face in life are really gifts for us to see where we can be headed to...</description>
