Ang Peregrino Recommends 56: The Bridgemaker

The Bridge­Maker
URL: http://​www​.the​bridge​maker​.com/

Bridge­mak­ers span the gap between pain and heal­ing. Bridge­mak­ers are wounded heal­ers who can iden­tify with those who are suf­fer­ing. They learn com­pas­sion through their own endurance of pain. Every­one has the capac­ity to be Bridge­mak­ers when they make the choice to show com­pas­sion and grace to others.

In its purest form, The Bridge­Maker is a self-awareness and per­sonal growth blog. I found out about this blog by acci­dent. I was read­ing sev­eral arti­cles, try­ing to get ideas for an arti­cle I was writ­ing, when I chanced upon this blog. I found out a great deal.

The con­tent on this blog can be cat­e­go­rized into the fol­low­ing pri­mary areas:

Ask for What You Want. These are requests sub­mit­ted by read­ers. The pur­pose of mak­ing these requests is to remind us that to get what we want in life, some­times we have to remem­ber to ask for it.

Sto­ries of Change. The sto­ries pub­lished here are intended to give you moti­va­tion and con­fi­dence that change does indeed take courage, but with­out change we will remain stuck in the past. To move for­ward in life, we must first make the choice to begin learn­ing how to change; we must take the first step out­side of our com­fort zones and into the fear that has held you and me back for too long.

Inspi­ra­tion. Call it moti­va­tion or call it life-coaching, either way you can expect to read arti­cles that are intended to help encour­age you to over­come the obsta­cles you are facing.

Faith. Life is big­ger than any­one of us. Some­times when we sur­ren­der to a higher power and say “bring the rain,” we dis­cover we are well-equipped to weather any storm we encounter.

For teach­ing us that we all have the capac­ity to be bridge­mak­ers our­selves, and for the all around great reads, Ang Pere­grino Rec­om­mends The Bridge­maker this week.
