HummingBird oh Meenakshi, I missed your post until now! I'm afraid I dont always remember to look at the grapevine for some reason - maybe because it doesnt send notifications. I'm glad you pointed out the triple one membership moment! Mmm maybe The Dark Side was new at that time - can't remember well. The pod is always growing! Love (5 months ago)
Meenakshi : Connection
Meenakshi Ah! Is the dark side new? HummingBird, did you see : 111 members. (8 months ago)
HummingBird : Joy
HummingBird Meenakshi, every now and then I realise I have left something out and I pop it in. I'd love members to share ideas of how it can improve and grow! (8 months ago)

2. Gratitude transforms

HummingBird said Mar 2, 6:02 AM:
 

I can transform an experience of hardship and suffering by finding something in the situation to be grateful for. This is a situation in my life which can be transformed in this way:

When I get disappointed at myself for not tolerating someone's seeming pettiness or intolerance or resistance to change or immaturity, I can feel gratitude for the other showing me the inconsistencies within me; the imperfections that need to be looked at with compassion.

I am grateful that I am daily shown the challenges and possibilities of unconditional love.

I am grateful for this precious life - which brings me opportunity to develop and learn. All difficulty presents an opportunity to learn All difficulty only appears as difficulty because there is an intrinsic lesson to learn. TherI am grateful for all lessons and teachings from Guru Life; all those who act our roles which I can learn from; all experiences which come my way

I am finding it difficult to juggle my roles with some ongoing physical conditions. When this happens, when I find myself not being able to do all my jobs as well as I would like to; I see how the important work still gets done, the family rallies around, and priorities change.

I remind myself to be grateful that there is a special place for me in life that makes me have meaning in the life of my family; and also that they are so important for me in my own daily life. They are the greatest life-giving gift for me, and such situations really bring this out.
