The MEANING of LIFE- the SECRET

Psychiatrist Carl Jung is noted for saying: "What you resist, persists."
We all have the power of choice in life. We can resist what we don't like in the hope that it will go away. Or we can accept things the way they are and make space for something new and different to transpire, simply by being in the flow of who we are and what is happening around us. And when we surrender to what is, we allow the true beauty of life to unfold. This magical space is where joy lives, and where gratitude can be found.
Life is precious when we align with the magic in surrender.

Who is Reflections of Life? We are Justine and Michael (previously known as Green Renaissance). We use our passion for filmmaking and our love of storytelling, to remind our audience of one simple truth - that we are all human. The more that we understand and believe in this interconnectedness, the more we will treat ourselves, one another, and planet earth with a greater sense of compassion.

Living in the present has had such a beautiful impact on my life. I feel as though a certain weight has been lifted from my shoulders after years and years of carrying around invisible burdens. When you stop constantly worrying about all of the things that may or may not happen in the future, or dwell on past mistakes or regrets, instead of living in this moment here and now - it feels so freeing. Time passes by more slowly, the air smells sweeter, the sounds around you more beautiful, the colors more vivid, the air and wind on your skin grounding. The world seems so magical, like it seemed when you were a child. It took a long time for me to get to this point where being present and mindful became a daily part of my life, and I still get caught up in all of the worries of life, but I get better at noticing when my mind drifts to unpleasant places. It's changed my life for the better and feels as though I have received the most beautiful gift of life. ❤

[@elevationview673]

Very true Ellary, when I focus on the present a calmness fills my heart worries from the past and future melt away. I've had a sad day so I'm in need of some positively.

I thought exactly the same! But honestly try to live/survive in the European countries where you are forced to keep in mind so many things! Invoices to be paid, parking your car where allowed, taxes, insurances, no green, no parks, a very polluted air, people who are more and more aggressiv, bad news in the newspaper..... I understand what this lovely man says and I agree. It's reasonable 100% but the reality of our lives is, unfortunately, something else.

"Love is all there is..." I am moved and inspired (educated?) by his talking about love. It seems too high of a mountain to climb when it isn't going well. Right?

I have recently become awake after 30 years, returning to my empathic self. I shut doors because of hereditary medical issues, I was angry at god, my parents and myself. I recently let go of all of that and started reopening the doors. Meditation has released all the trauma and burden. I have felt and seen quite a bit in this self realization. It is so freeing and a work in progress. But connecting to the greater consciousness and trying to live consciously every day is what life should be. I just hope it keeps spreading as I see it slowly doing and as a species we can all evolve, that is a beautiful thing

I wrote down these notes in my journal. Do not nurture victimhood and sufferings. Take responsibility for your journey. Surrender to what is. The moment love is conditioned, it is no longer love. Wow.

[@ReflectionsofLife]

We are so glad this video had so many little nuggets for you to write down. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚

Surrendering life is half way to complete peace. Surrendering to Jesus brings the fullness of peace

[@pokajimon]

Jesus is the root of all your suffering. Surrender to life not man made religions.

[@dkTruthBuster]

​@@pokajimonEverything is man made. This video you watched, this comment of yours and mine. The perception that we form in our head, it is all man made.

[@hibaabdullatheef2410]

Sometimes it's just these wise words and perspectives we need to broaden our minds and just live. When times get too hard and I can't cope, I come here to watch these. Idk how it helps me, but it definitely does. I've got too many thoughts and questions about life that I can't help myself. What I need is just simple as this, but not every one can provide it. Yet you guys do a wonderful job in finding the right people. Though I try appreciate the life I'm given, I get stuck now and then. These words help me move forward at least for a day in peace, thankyou.

[@ReflectionsofLife]

We are so glad that our videos carry you through some tough days in your life. May they always help you to find some peace and move forward. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
