I wrote yesterday about surrounding yourself with things and people that matter during times of chaos and challenges. We need a strong support network to help us get through our obstacles. For example, last year I faced a number of challenges with a neighbour who was causing noise and disrupting our lives to a large degree.

I wrote yesterday about surrounding yourself with things and people that matter during times of chaos and challenges. We need a strong support network to help us get through our obstacles. For example, last year I faced a number of challenges with a neighbour who was causing noise and disrupting our lives to a large degree. However, we mustn’t let others disrupt our inner peace otherwise we get dragged into their world. It is easy to get angry when we experience difficulties in our lives. Sometimes it is unavoidable, yet if we allow the feelings to pass and return to a state of peace, we find that external situations needn’t overpower us. In my situation, I turned to loved ones, particularly my young nephews and niece and spent more time playing with them. They taught me the art of: surrender, joy, playfulness and living in the present moment. With this in mind, what experience/s have you faced where you turned to loved ones for support? What did you learn from them? Are you still applying it in your life? I'm interested to know your thoughts!
