Hola Beautiful Soul
I am blessed. I know I am. To be travelling the world. Doing what I Love. Following my heart. Following my JoY. Following my bliss.
At the same time, when life delivered me a truck load of lemons one day, I had a choice. Initially I collapsed under the weight. I fell into and out of fear and even experienced abject terror. Yet through my willingness, and the grace of the passage of time, I began to see that there was another way. Even though I couldn't recognise it at first, that here was an opportunity to make lemonade.
Wherever we are - wherever we may find ourselves - is exactly where we are meant to be. If you are struggling right now with anything at all, the invitation is to pause. To be still. To give yourself a break literally and figuratively.
What I have learnt, through my own journey and that of others, is there's often a very simple reason we can't see the wood for the trees. More often than not we simply need to take a step back. To give ourselves, the relationship, the situation, the experience, some space. To create breathing room to allow the wisdom to flow in.
Even considering that there is a potential blessing at all – however hidden, however small – can start to turn the tide. For you always have the power to choose how you look at the world. And how we choose to look at the world causes the world to change.
If you don't like the narrative you're hearing - create your own.
Which lens you choose to perceive that idea through will depend how you react or respond. The same phrase could be considered delusional by one, or the co-creation of Heaven on Earth by another. Neither right. Neither wrong. Simply a reflection of different internal and external views.
Both realities and many others co-exist simultaneously. The question is, which one are you choosing to inhabit?
Blessèd Be.
