Transforming Challenges to Passion and Purpose

We hear much about happiness, but what about the melancholy sides of life? The tendency is to avoid it. Rather than avoiding it, understanding it and transforming may lead to deep gratification, passion, and purpose.

We all have times in our life when we have faced pain, disconnection, and separation. It can be from death, rejection, and many kinds of hurt. Initially, we may want to find ways to avoid confronting the difficult emotions.

It is not the emotion itself, but facing it and transforming it that creates the challenge. The greatest challenge is the tendency to judge. Doing so puts ourselves in a mental box, as though we want to hide and function as though we are complete and separate entities. The walls of our boxes are built from the hidden talk about our personal experiences and ourselves. Most frequently, this self-talk is not about the present, but early childhood patterns of belief.

Passion

When we understand that this pain has an early origin, we can have compassion for each other. We all have had childhood. We can discover the old childhood patterns, and release them. When put in perspective, this gives us a deep sense of connection and well being.

A deeper spiritual energy also emerges. Facing pain helps us to connect with our spiritual resources, make a difference, and be of service to others. This experience, combined with an appreciation of our unique strengths, seeds passion.

When this passion is put into form, a vehicle that provides a benefit to others, we have created a unique purpose. When pain is changed purpose, the walls come down, and we experience a flow of energy in serving others that is very gratifying.

For example, the woman who started MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Drives) had a son who was killed by a drunk driver. She could have wallowed in her pain endlessly. Instead, she decided to heal herself by using the painful experience to honor her son and increase society's awareness of the problem.
