“We are here to learn lessons, the world is our classroom and Life is our teacher”  – Andrew Matthews.

If there ever was one thought that changed my life, it is the quote above. This philosophy suddenly gave new meaning to my life. I started seeing sense in everything that was happening around me. I had always believed that every problem I was facing was an opportunity in disguise. What I now realized was that many of my problems were recurring, again and again, and I understood that I was stuck in the same class and Life was teaching me that lesson again and again simply because I had not yet learnt it completely.

As life goes by, a new set of problems unfold, new issues emerge and every day I learn a new lesson. And then I ask myself, ‘Doesn’t Life ever run out of lessons to teach, won’t these lessons ever end?’ Oh yes, they do end, when life ends. And as I embrace this philosophy, I find that there is no such thing as a problem! Everything is merely a fact, a situation, an event – it being a problem or not is a label we give it. And once we accept that and choose to believe that somewhere in that fact, situation or event there is a lesson for ourselves, all that anxiety, fear and other negative emotions that cloud our minds just dissipate and give way for yet another day of enrichment, enlightenment, fulfillment. Life becomes so much more enjoyable, every day seems like a great gift!
So join me in discovering the meaning Life gives to circumstances that keep unfolding around us and the continuous flow of lessons it keeps sending to us.. Welcome to the Classroom of Life!
