There is a purpose in all that happens, a plan for the highest good for all my children that they may become their true selves. Life is classroom of lessons and you progress as you learn the lessons. Just as the lessons of kindergarten are simpler than third grade, your life lessons become more complex as you mature. Lessons will always surround you for you have entered this life with a list of lessons. You chose which lessons you would learn and how they would appear to you. Lessons repeat till you learn them. Each lesson learned clears the flame of your being.
The overall plan is always for progression, for learning the lessons that teach you to become love, your true self. See the lessons as a process of purification, of bringing in light to your soul rather than blaming them on someone else, or that the world is against you – for the world is only your classroom. Teachers come and go, and lessons are repeated in different form till you learn them. While the structure or location of the classroom may change, however, what is most important is that you learn the lessons presented to you. You are an eternal being and you have eternity to learn the lessons.
Lessons come in all sizes. Some lessons may alter not only your life but those around you, such as learning not to be angry, judgmental, hateful or violent. Some lessons may seem to be subtle, yet they all change your soul. The greatest lesson of all is learning to listen to the still quiet Voice.
