Triggers

[Fluttering]

Why does it seem as if when one thing slaps a person in the face there is a what appears a domino effect?

Why is it that when something comes up, such as a trigger or an unresolved issue...it can't be just that one thing to deal with...more and more is piled on top?

I know God does not give us more than we can handle but come on.....

Example...i posted the thread about grief...my ex...then my brother camd up , then more and more I get calls 7 emails from others, or likelast night running into a woman also dealing with disabilities, as I am...and there wass so much fear, despair, hopelessness...the heck of it was she was saying all the things I have edperienced..."I'm tired of it all...I don't know how to deal with the loss...it is too overwhelming...and on and on" all i could do was listen and share my ESH but my insides were screaming..."I KNOW>>>I KNOW>>I have been there.. on occasion I AM THERE.....I have prayed God would take me." But I couldn't say those things to one in so much despair and the lack of hope in her eyes freightened me.

It is also like if you said something is going on and you go to a meeting..thee is the topic...and the topic comes up again and again and again at many differetn meetings.

Is it that it is becsue one is to deal with it? I have heard the phrase...i have even said it..."If you hear it in stereo you better pay attention.."
Is that the same thing with bad stuff?...bad thoughts...what ever you want to call them?

I am ok...at least for today...I am not morbid, depressed or anything like that...just something that has been on my mind and I wanteed to finally ask the question and get others input.

Well, I try to look at those kinds of things in a spiritual way. I find that things that keep being repeated are lessons that I need to learn. And, life/the universe has a way of showing us a lesson over and over again, until we get it. Once you get what you need from a lesson, you move on and begin another lesson. Sometimes the idea of that process is discouraging to me. But, I believe that our purpose here on earth is to follow our soul's path, and our soul has decided what it needs to figure out in this lifetime.

I just heard on the radio.

"It seems like it's when we are at our darkest moment, our deepest despair and there is no where else to go, that we get that 'red sea moment', God shows up"

I know as well as anyone here what it feels like to have things just keep piling up. One thing after another. I compare it to the movie "Rocky". When Apollo Creed is beating the heck out of him. He gets up on one knee and grabs the rope to pull himself up, and wham, he gets punched in the head and knocked back down again. over and over.

Well, I feel like I just keep getting knocked down to the mat just as I start to get back up.

I have faith that someday, I will be standing in the middle of the ring (a little beaten and broken) with my arms in the air yelling "ADRIAN". lmao.

I know where you are coming from.

I don't understand why it seems that when one thing happens more and more seems to happen not allowing u to deal with the "issue", "problem"....its like someone is trying to see how much they can push u before u fall. Sorry not very helpful I just wish I understood why everything happens at the same time never giving u time to breath.
