Do you ever have a saying, song, words, or phrase that just rolls around in your head? Sometimes for an hour, a day, a week, or goodness forever? Many times it gets almost annoying that whatever is in your head playing over and over again just will not quit.
Well, for about 6 months now at completely off the wall and random moments suddenly I find myself thinking or even speaking out loud the words “Sometimes in life…” and that is just were it stops….nothing comes after this. Well, you can imagine at this point my INFJ Empath Learner personality is analyzing this and wondering what sort of message I am supposed to be getting with this. What is it that isn’t quite getting through?
- Sometimes in Life bad things happen.
- Sometimes in Life good things happen.
- Sometimes in Life things are not fair.
- Sometimes in Life people play and win the lottery.
- Sometimes in Life we wonder where God is.
- Sometimes in Life we feel so low we can’t image ever rising again.
- Sometimes in Life our heart breaks into tiny little pieces.
- Sometimes in Life we find a person to put all those pieces back together.
- Sometimes in Life we can run and run, but we will never escape.
- Sometimes in Life there is someone there to catch us when we fall.
- Sometimes in Life …
So, on we could go, right? Maybe I just figured out at least one reason this is in my head and as tears come to my eyes I realize we are all in the middle of a “Sometimes in Life…” moment. For some of us it is a painful moment, some it is joyous, or for some it is mundane. We are all there though…together…or we have all been there…together. Yes, right now in this moment I believe God created “Sometimes in Life…” moments to connect us in a common sense of empathy.
Do not withdrawal from those moments. He needs us to FEEL each moment to enable us to FEEL it with someone else later. Empathy (funny I mentioned Empath above when this thought hadn’t occurred to me until now) isn’t about understanding someone’s emotion it is about SHARING IN someone’s emotion. Feeling exactly how they feel. I believe today not everyone has this ability and I believe it is because we stopped allowing others and our selves to truly FEEL the emotions as they come. Once we FEEL them we can let them go to God, but if we don’t they stay with us forever. They will forever be apart of us that is what enables us to feel with others, but they will not consume us. We will be allowed to move on to our next “Sometimes in Life…” moment.
Final Thought…FEEL whatever your heart and soul needs to feel.
God Bless! I am praying for you please pray for me!
