LOOK AT LIFE LIKE A SMORGASBORD

Look at life like a smorgasbord. There are so many options in this world, things are flying at us left right and centre trying to grab our attention, telling us we need this, that and the other, we are overloaded with choices. New things coming out all the time promising to improve our life in some way, to make it easier, faster, prettier, you name it, there's a new shinier thing that will have your life work better. With all of this, many have lost touch of what is truly right for them, many are grabbing at new things all the time trying to find an answer to something that's not sitting well within them. That new shiny thing does feel great, for sure, there is no doubt about it, but usually only for a moment. Over time it fades and you realise that feeling you were hoping would disappear, comes back again and you begin your search for the next best thing. We have to learn to pause again, to pause longer than we believe we need to, to stop the rush towards the quick fixes and to bring everything back to the basics before we start piling things on top of everything else and hoping for the best again. The first part of this year saw my health take a twist in another direction, it had been coming for a while which I could feel but didn't pay attention until something really stopped me in my tracks, I had no choice but to take life back to basics...and I mean right back to basics. I focused only on two things, myself & my kids along with the minimum tasks to get through the day. I stopped everything else completely. I could feel myself wanting to fight against it, until I realised that wasn't the way and so I let myself stay down. One thing I know about myself is that nothing keeps me down, it never has and it never will, I know my strength so well and thank my life experiences for shaping me in such a way...so I sat in trust with that. What it did do was it gave me the space & time to reevaluate everything. What was important to the core...number one being my kids, how I parent them & how we operate as a family. I went through life as it was and looked at how it was working & how it wasn't. How I was showing up and what was no longer working for me. I looked at what I enjoyed and saw new ways to have it be a part of my world. I cleared so much away and now I look at life like a smorgasbord....as I see it, as things come to my attention, I pause and I really feel into if it's for me or not, is it for the short or long game of life. Life has become extremely intentional all while following the nudges that are an instant guide. Even all of this isn't a quick fix, it hasn't been a walk in the park...I'm still adjusting to things, still having a little dance between the old & new of me but what I have now set up reminds me of what I want and what I'm moving towards. Life's smorgasbord get's to be a mix of everything, work that drives & inspires you, play that lights you up in your own wacky way, relationships that accept all of you in any stage of life & backs you and so much more...just be sure to make space for the things that are right for you and not how you think you should be doing them, how it looks or how accepted it is to others. Get to know yourself inside & out, feel into what feels right on your heart, I've said it before and I'll continue to say it...your heart never lies. In every moment you are been sent messages through your body, question them, learn them, get really intimate with yourself. Each little nudge is directing you to the right places that are especially set up for you & your life...Use your discernment & trust it!
