Several books have been written, and we might have seen movies or documentaries about people whose lives dramatically changed after they had traumatic experiences. There are also people who get to a certain age and start questioning their lives and make drastic changes. And you might very well have had traumatic experiences, or even started questioning your life. Or, perhaps you haven't yet worked through a traumatic experience. If you've not yet had any of these experiences, it's likely that, at some point in your life, you will find yourself in one of these situations - either the survivor or a near survivor of a harrowing experience, or a person still grappling with a traumatic experience. Or, you might be a person who has reached a point in your life where you don't feel satisfied.
We are required to work very hard to save ourselves when we are placed in harsh conditions - we are required to dig deep. If we are lucky, we might even dig deep enough to see our souls. In the books and movies mentioned above, the changes that happened most likely occurred when the person uncovered their soul and then allowed their soul to guide their lives.
If we never have such a life-changing experience, what are we to do if we thirst for a change in our lives? We can do nothing, and simply live our second-choice existence. Or, we could be brutally honest with ourselves and find out if the life we created is indeed the life we like, or if we are merely caught up in the flow of circumstances that make up our lives. In other words, we can decide to look at our second-choice existences, or we can admit that we cannot or do not have the courage to stop and look at our lives.
Courage is needed because adjustments might take more pain and work than we are willing to put forth. The choice can be difficult. Yet if we decide to do nothing, all that remains is the second-choice existence, with no chance of ever living our first-choice existence.
The question is, why wait for a trauma? Why not just look at your life right now, instead? In some cases, people recalling their traumatic experience say they saw flashes of their lives. This might have happened to you. Whether or not it has, have you ever considered why this occurs? Why these people see their lives flash by? Why they invariably make life-altering changes? Why they say it seems to them that they now have a second chance at their lives?
Could it be that they saw what their lives had come to? Could it be that they didn't like what they saw? That they saw their second-choice existences flash by? If we look really closely at our lives in an open and honest way, without waiting for a traumatic experience to "force" us to, might we also see our second-choice existence?
