It has been a struggle to get here focused centered, even with the pull to write distractions and busy work have been easier frankly than facing the energy swirling around me.
As I dig dipper into my own awareness and authentic self, the more in tune I am to the energy around me. The past week has been heavy, unbalanced and emotional charged, much like the weather. More and more I am feeling an energetic pull to push through and face the unknowns which await me on my path.
In trying to face those unknowns you must chose to surrender to vulnerability. Simple however not an easy choice to make. The first step is to lean in and take a chance. Whether it be a smile to a stranger, coffee with someone new, or hiking alone to the top of a mountain, push through your head saying “can’t” and move to your heart saying “hell yes”.
I surrendered last weekend to the pull and hiked through snow and mud to arrive in the cloud surrounded by peace. It is exhilarating and fearful at the same time standing alone in the clouds, however once I focused and let go an incredible sense of joy washed over me.
In life we spend way too much time inside our head instead of just “being” in the moment. Avoidance and distractions become the easy way and the thought of being still seems impossible. It takes practice and dedication to feel comfortable in your own silence however once you make the commitment the peace and joy you feel is a gift.
Believing there is an energy source greater than all of us at play and connecting to this opens you up to endless possibilities. Standing on the mountain peak enveloped in cloud with the wind blowing reinforced this belief and what a gift this life is.
This is what I have learned so fr in my journey, be your authentic self and the right people will gravitate toward you, be completely open in every encounter and amazing connections are made, and believing in your path will get you out of your head and living through your heart.
Blessing and Much Aloha……
This quote made me stop in my tracks
You are not accidental. The world needs you.
Without you, something will be missing in existence and nobody can replace it.
