This past week has been one of true discovery for me. I took a chance and opened myself up to a new community of people and found the life experience and knowledge they are sharing with me has given me so much insight into myself.
I’m amazed at how complex a person I am, as I’m sure we all are!
I have been reminded that there is always a reason for our behavior. Actions we take in our day to day lives are based on a spectrum of life experiences that are only truly known to us personally.
I was adamantly told by a stranger that I needed to try something different. I desperately did not want the inconvenience of stepping out of my comfortable routine I created for myself. Really more like my comfortable “patterns”.
However, as painful as it was and inconvenient to stepped out and have now found myself in a growth stage of my life that has been long overdue.
I knew I needed growth like this for sometime, I knew I was stuck in a pattern of behavior I needed to change, I didn’t know how.
You see, I was in the forest and couldn’t see through the trees. As I stopped to rest and regained my sense of direction I noticed the light and followed it to the edge of the forest.
I’m at the edge now. I know I’m not in the clear, but I’m so happy to be out of the thick of the forest. I don’t mind hanging out on the forest edge for a while.
I was reminded this past week that when we take the time to share our experiences with others it helps us to grow as individuals and as communities.
I say a Big Thank You to this community of people!
I say to you; a simple life story you share may mean the world to another person and change their lives forever. Saying out loud your own story may help you to let go of a past that no longer serves you and open doors to let new experiences in. So, by all means please share your experiences as they are truly meaningful!
Set an Intention!
