Only one story but more than one application.

Recently I shared two items with you that came from the one incident. How is that possible you may be asking? Surely with every story there can be only one application?

Not so! Often we may only ever see one application from that which we experience but that doesn’t mean that that is the only way an incident can be seen.

Just because you only see one application doesn’t mean that there are not others, and even less so that others experiencing the same event as you draw the same implications from it as you.

So often there is more for us to experience from every situation than we draw, simply because we are not looking for more. If you are only looking for one thing from every situation then that is often what you will find. You will miss many more blessings simply because you were not looking for them.

I am not saying that you should look for more in everything you do, but rather that you look to see, if there is any more, to be experienced and shared with others.
