All of these inspirational short stories for your lifework encourage you to begin within - living from your True Self and your God. We begin within by stopping our fight against what is. We fight against ourselves and life by continually thinking, expecting or wanting our life to be some other way.
This hurts us and robs us of joy. For example, we may be in a job that is less than ideal (and I am not recommending staying in toxic jobs). Rather than resenting our job, co-workers, boss, or leaving for another job we would be well advised to ask ourselves:
“Have I truly given this work my best? Have I stopped to consider that my work is an honorable job? Do I work with a song in my heart?”
By living these questions we make our work meaningful NOW… rather than postponing our happiness until we find meaningful work. If you can say “Yes,” to these questions and still, your workday holds no joy THEN it may be time to look for new employment.
Many of us have found ourselves out of work during this economic downturn. Perhaps, you are amidst divorce, ill, or suffering in other ways. Within these painful moments of life - as hard as it seems to do – acceptance is the answer. Through taking steps toward accepting what is, we stop fighting our lives.
We offer inspirational short stories for your lifework… like the story, “A Toad in Trouble.” This story, about my dear friend’s five year old son, shows us how love and acceptance heals us and makes us whole.
My husband and I learn so much about ourselves through raising our son we call him our Zen master. Even amidst tough times in the family like “Homework Hell” we can reach for something higher within ourselves to help us through. We can learn potent life lessons.
Parenting teens, we learned every word we spoke was either building a relationship with our son or pushing him away. And, during his last two years of high school he was a master at pushing away! I had lessons revealed to me at 3:00 a.m. when I realized I needed to stop blaming my husband if I wanted to save our marriage back then! Life has so much to teach us if we are open and willing to change.
Our cat, Shybaby, taught us important life lessons like patience, how to live in the present moment and to keep things in perspective.
Every moment is seeded with amazing gifts as we work to live more conscious and aware lives. These inspirational short stories for your lifework will uplift you; help you realize you are not alone; and shine a light upon your soul work in each moment.
