One of my most popular blogs was ‘Are we suffering?’. This is not surprising.
In my consulting and teaching practice, I hear lots of heart-aching stories and see loads of suffering… One thing I learned from all the stories and that revealed itself again and again in my work is that if you dig deep enough, you will find the reason, you will find the wisdom, the lesson that the suffering, the challenge, or the pain is bringing forward…

Surrender to the Divine and know that everything that happens to you has a higher meaning and purpose… know that there is a higher plan, a bigger picture that you might not be fully aware of at the moment… stick to your path, your mission, your purpose… Keep going… Your efforts, your patience, your forbearance, perseverance and persistence will never go wasted… they will be rewarded in a way you never thought possible… that’s not my promise… That’s a Divine promise… Trust!
