My life seems to be spinning around at a rapid pace. There are so many moments this week that have felt like my life has come full circle- and I am ending up right back where I started. I keep laughing at how "ironic" all the circumstances are, and trying to shake that eerie "I've been here before" feeling.
I have this theory that life has us repeat moments over and over until we finally prove that we have learned our lessons. Or maybe we just keep choosing the wrong path, that leads us to the next wrong path. Either way- life gives us do overs. We have to keep reliving the same types of moments over and over until we "get it right" in the universe.
My life has somehow returned to where I was three months ago. And I can choose to pretend that I don't notice the exact conversations, feelings, and problems and react the same way I did then. If I choose that route I would have to hope that it wouldn't end the same, and risk being put right back here three months after that. Or I could accept that Heavenly Father is trying to teach me something.
This is where I am stopping the circle. I am turning to my past- and actively trying to change my future. I see Heavenly Father trying to beat me over the head with lessons- and I can only drag my feet for so long. As I stand on the same precipice- I realize that I was wrong. A couple months ago I saw only two paths. And now that I stand on that same edge, I can see the whole picture. When you get back to the beginning you have to realize that you took the path leading you there.
Every old ending, is a new beginning. You have the choice to change things and get yourself out the cycle. Otherwise- chances are you are just starting another doomed journey over and over again until you finally learn the things you could have learned the first go round. It's okay to end up right back where you started, as long as you are taking what you learned, and using that to find a new path that is undiscovered.
