Encountering Personal History for Personal Change

Reviewing your personal history leads to self-discovery and understanding. When you review your life with attention and care you discover diamonds within mountain of dirt.
 
Life is fundamentally a creative process, meant to bring about more and better manifestation of living reality. Human life then is a process of bringing about better and improved expression of the human person.

All of a person’s experiences are embedded in the memory cells of the brain which are always ready to be retrieved upon recall. Reviewing one’s life re-awakens and brings to present reality past events and experiences along with the energies that brought them about.

For personal change to happen in a way that positively influences the totality of a person, there is a need to make a journey of remembrance back to the landscape of one’s life.

There are a lot of things that comes to mind when reviewing one’s life. While your eventual focus is on events that may have a bearing on the problematic area you are concerned with it is good to be open to all remembered experiences as possible source of energy and perspective for positive change.

Thus reviewing one’s life can reveal significant moments when life direction changed (turning points in life), when critical events, dark moments, meaningful experiences and important things happened in one’s life. Coming back to these experiences is necessary to understand the root cause of what one need or want to change in one’s life.

Reviewing your life will also reveal those who are God’s messengers sent to help you; persons most influential in your life; the people who influenced you for good. It will also reveal that which you fought against: your personal nemesis, your Achilles’ heel (chief weakness) and those who led you astray.

Reviewing your life reveals your cherished dreams and your spiritual journey; it reveals your life story and enables you to discover and understand your past; and knowing your past, you’ll come to understand your present as well.
