Life 101
get. However as life goes on, some of those chocolates you start to
recall tasting their bitter-sweetness before.
This I consider "the cycles of life". These cycles go around in large
circles like the vunerability of being a newborn to the vunerability
of being an elder. There are also smaller cycles like love
relationships that repeat the same patterns. These cycles even repeat
from one generation to another where you find yourself replicating
your parents relationship.
So what's the point of these cycles. Are they just a loosing battle?
These cycles are meant to teach you "something," as fustrating as they
may feel! You are meant to break the cycles. Be it overcoming out-
dated conditioning from your upbringing to stopping bad habits, cycles
will repeat till one day u realize "I keep doing the same thing in my
life over and over again but somehow expect a different result!" I
even believe your children "pay" for the cycles you have not broken.
If you find yourself experiencing the same shit over and over again,
it is not that you are cursed. Your feeling of "de ja vu" is life
saying "time to learn something". You must then stop and look at what
YOU are doing that causes this domino effect.
It's hard to do this (especially for someone as hard headed as me).
But it gives me a sense of relief to know that issues that repeat are
repeating in order to teach me something. There IS that so-called
silver lining to every cloud. Think of everything you have
overcome ... something good always comes out if it.
Yup it's a bitter sweet way of living but you stop going in circles
and you start to spiral upward ... to the next cycle.
