===Lesson===
 
Teacher Ophelius: “Today’s message is about disappointments and failed expectations.  Many times throughout your life there will be disappointments and failed expectations even at the height of the most positive circumstances and feelings of surety that things and events will materialize as planned in your mind which would benefit you and others at a time that is most auspicious, yet somehow roadblocks and inopportune events bar the way to these predictable outcomes that perplex and dishearten your outlook.  These things happen for reasons that you may not fully realize now, but will clearly see later on as alternative paths and outcomes materialize to teach lessons or exceed the expected outcome of the previously laid plans.

“Only by the pruning of the vine will good fruit come, and so it is for you, my friends, that you must sometimes be patient and allow events and opportunities to present themselves according to divine timing which will prove to be the greatest benefit to you and others -- benefits that maximize soul progression (healthy food), not necessarily material needs and wants (candy), keeping in mind that the sweet treat will be given in moderation out of divine love, and most often does the delayed reward or outcome exceed your greatest expectations when you are prepared to meet the nurturing opportunity.
