Why I’m Alive….
I took a moment to reflect yesterday and realized it has finally been a month since moving into my camper - Wow! Where does the time go? I feel like I have done so many things since making the decision to sell the house. I have no regrets in my sell and move and I am continually looking forward to an even brighter future filled with love, service, learning, and sharing my gifts.
I didn’t plan on taking on a teaching schedule at the same time I was moving out, but it worked out that way and this has been rewarding thus far. What I have learned is to stay humble and not be afraid to shine my light for others to see. I have also learned that shining my light isn’t about being bright and cheerful all of the time, but what people really crave is honesty and sincerity in a teacher. People want to know the truth, because I feel we have been fed bullshit about life for way to long and I look forward to continuing to be part of the change for the better. I constantly share my downs and ups for students to relate to and learn from and that feels good in my heart.
I have finally taken the steps to get my personal business going - everything is in the start up process, however, this was one of the big pushes for me to get rid of my home (and the responsibilities that come with it) to free up tons of energy to put forth into creating products and services for others to benefit from. What I have learned about myself is sometimes I tend to bite off more than I can chew or I over commit. My pledge this week is to say “no” to things that I don’t need to fit into my schedule. Another thing I need to do is stop doing things that my not be asked of me - aka: helping when not needed. I have been really working on this energetic boundary the entire year and I have lots more to improve on it, but boundaries for me is the key word in 2018. As a creator, I want to continue to give myself lots of space to build the things I am working on, however, I am trying not to be the hermit that I have been for the entire beginning of the year. There is a fine line between being social and using all of my free time to spend with others or doing for others. I am sure this is something that everyone can relate to in one way or another, but I have a vision for what I want to create and it continues to evolve. Creating boundaries is something I will have to continue to improve on to honor what I truly need for myself.
When I take a moment to reflect each day about the events of the day/week what I find is that each and every situation or conversation has a miraculous meaning in my life. It is not about the other person, or my opinion/ judgement of them. What I have learned is if I see something in someone else whether it is good/bad/indifferent - that situation is ultimately happening to serve me. Life is happening for me, not to me. It is up to me to stop, reflect and take the precious divine lessons out of each day and use them to grow and evolve. After all, isn’t that why I am alive right now?
