No problems. Only possibilities*

Not every situation which seems like a solution is actually a solution. Not every situation which seems like a problem is actually a problem. So, what is a problem, what is a possibility, it’s like this.

There was a little bird in Michigan in USA. The winter was just setting in, it’s the time to move south, to warmer climate. But he was a little too happy, tweeting around, so he was also busy tweeting and he delayed his flight south. After whether started freezing he tried to fly, his wings froze and he felt. A cow was walking by and a cow dropping happened which landed straight on the bird. Feeling the warmth of the dung the bird slowly recovered and became very happy and tweeted again from within the dung. A hungry cat was passing by, heard the tweet, opened the dung and ate the bird. So, not everybody who keeps shit on you is your enemy and not everybody who gets you out of the shit is your friend. It is just that.

If you have equipped yourself in such a way that no matter what happens you know how to make that into a wonderful possibility for yourself. Because what life throws at us is not our choice always. We try to manage it at some extent. But it is not entirely our choice. Life may throw all kind of things at us, but what we make out of it is 100 percent ours. If this one dimension, if we take charge of this, no matter what life throws at me, I will make it into a tremendous process for myself, let it throw whatever.

Does not matter what life throws at you, you will turn it into a possibility, you will not make it into a problem, because you are not a problem. This is a choice that every human being has, either for every situation. When I say ‘every situation’ there are only situations, and situations, and situations in our lives. When you do not know how to handle a particular situation, you call it a problem.

What is a problem for you, maybe a wonderful possibility for somebody else. That is usually is.

There are no problems in life. There are just situations. You can either make it into a possibility or a problem. You can either you yourself become a possibility or a problem. This is a choice every human being has. But to exercise this choice, you have to be in a certain way within yourself. Within yourself you are in a certain state of equity, balance, exuberance, that no matter what life throws at you, you make that in a wonderful possibility. Life can throw all kind of horrible things, do not underestimate life. It can do things to you. It can do all kind of things to you. Most unexpected time it will throw something at you that you did not imagine possible. More active you are, more unexpected things happen to you. So, instead of trying to control what life should throw at you, equipping yourself in such a way, no matter what it throws at you, you will make it into a wonderful possibility.

If this one thing is done within a human being, then every situation is a possibility. Once every situation becomes a possibility, this human being will blossom to a full-pledged life. This is an aspiration of every life, to somehow become a full-pledged life.
