Susan notes: I love how these Daily Om messages often speak to me directly... so many life lessons to learn, so little time to learn them!

Disappointment provides us a bridge from expectations to acceptance of reality, wisdom, and the energy to begin again.

Whenever we do something in life with an expectation of how we would like it to turn out, we risk experiencing disappointment. 

Thanks to the Daily Om.

When we hide and try to be invisible and unseen by all we are only really hiding from ourselves.

At times, we've all wanted to crawl under a rock and hide away from the world.

We may have preferred to be invisible rather than let other people see us or notice that we exist.

Thanks to Daily Om

Peace starts within us. We cannot bring to the world what we do not have to offer.

Often we look at the outside world and find it in a state of seeming chaos or disorder. We feel compelled to transform the situation from one of turmoil into one of peace, yet we are often disappointed in our best attempts to do so.
