Tools for Living

The most prominent strand in my rope is my philosophy of life. I believe in a divine power of love that connects us to each other.

My personal blend of beliefs started from a study of metaphysics. In the classes I took, we learned to do visualisations and affirmations and to think positively. The teachings of Jesus showed me that healing comes from love; the stories of Buddha taught me compassion. I believe that by focusing on helping others we receive more than we give. My faith is strong that we are guided, protected and wished to reach our greatest good.

At the same time, I believe in accepting life as it currently is, not angrily fighting against difficulties. Byron Katie in writes, “Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you. Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. You don’t have to like it ... it’s just easier if you do.”
