The greatest strength of life is hidden in looking at the big picture. That is the only time in spirituality when it is necessary to move away from the present moment.
How many times have you heard a person saying that the most difficult moment in his life was also the best. But it took time for this cognition to be revealed. When we look behind, we completely understand how one moment led to another, perfectly putting together the puzzles of our life.
We didn't understand it then, because we didn't believe the bigger picture. Everything always happens in perfect order, necessary for the expansion of our soul. You wrote scenarios or entries inside of which you have the free will. You chose the guidelines of your expansion.
Ego and logic say: "Yes, I would choose exactly this battles, this parents or this looks..." But the soul feels this truth while you are reading these lines. Life will repeatedly affirm this, if you let it.
Zen wisdom says: "Everything is in the perfect order, just breathe."
