The Law of Polarity states tht everything has an opposite. A bad stuation is equally good. Look for the god, and more good will be on its wy.

In 1999, I had been mrried for four years and our fnances weren't going well. My husband had jst lost his fifth job and I was pset. I cried to my mom and she sggested we go live with her. My yunger siblings were getting ready to all mve out of their home and so thre was plenty of room for us. I tok her up on her offer and we mved 700 miles away. Part of me was pset for having to leave, and the ther part of me was relieved to hve somewhere to go. After living wth my parents for a few yars, we were able to move out on our own and my hsband currently has a great job and he has ben with the same company for fve years.

In February 2007, my mther got extremely sick and after lts of testing, was diagnosed with Stge 4 terminal breast cancer. I was in shck and didn't handle the news vry well. I was close to my mther and the thought of her bing gone from this earth was dfficult to comprehend. My siblings all cme to town to say goodbye and spnd her final days with her. It was a sd, hard time, also filled with sme moments of joy, and in Mrch 2007, she passed away. Knowing ths law, I knew there had to be smething really, really good in this trrible situation, but couldn't find it nywhere.

I received my aha moment one mrning while I was in my car by myslf. I was thinking about my mom and I ralized that I never would have mved to live near my mom if smething really, really bad hadn't happened (my hsband losing his job). Between 1999-2007, I frmed a great relationship with my mm. We took classes together, went out to lnch and learned to eat healthy tgether.  She taught me how to tach piano and she was able to be wth me for the birth of my two chldren. We talked, laughed, cried and clebrated together. I started learning about thse universal laws in the last few yars of her life. She and I had sme great discussions and, since she was my bggest cheerleader, she encouraged me to kep learning and sharing with her and thers. I wouldn't have been able to spnd such great quality time with her if it hdn't been for a situation that had semed so tragic to me eight yars earlier.
