Song Pick Yourself Up and Start All Over Again
So here's the thing. I honey writing and I honey my blogs. I was and then excited nigh my 60 in the City idea. I couldn't wait to get started. Ideas flowed in my head and my heart. When I was out ideas, words, sentences, paragraphs, and pictures poured in. This is my passion. I dearest sharing ideas and hopefully inspiring others. Ok, so what happened ….why did I finish? Why do I have lists of blogging ideas in my "To Practice List" and why haven't I written in months? Why? What stopped me? Hmmmm…… time to explore the usual suspects.
The sometime tapes I suppose. What practise I hateful past the old tapes? Those are those thoughts that flow through our mind. Crap that other people told united states or crap that nosotros repeatedly tell ourselves? Can't, shouldn't, wouldn't, couldn't. Yowzers!! How did that stuff get into my caput?
I pride myself on a cup that is more than half full and often spilling over. I recollect that I am a "accept accuse, get it washed, kind of Womyn". I never leave dishes in the sink or laundry unfolded. I plan my meals, program my grocery list, accept time to cook healthy from scratch nutrient, keep my dwelling house neat and tidy, stay in impact family and loved ones, remember birthdays and special occasions, brand lists and check things off. Yup, you got it….I can busy myself with a lot of mundane details and tell myself that I was too decorated today merely tomorrow….no the next twenty-four hour period….ok no….next calendar week…. I'll do information technology….cause I dearest it. What'south going on????
Looking back over the years (and when you are sixty, there are a lot of years to look dorsum on) I know that many times when I was on the brink of following my passion to have my own business as an Alternative Healing practitioner. My passion for facilitating groups to inspire womyn to create the changes they want for themselves and for the earth…..I didn't follow my ain advice just instead took a different path. Consistently a solid, dependable job or contract would come my fashion and how could I say no to stability and normality? I am non criticizing those choices. I was a sole support parent with ii amazing daughters who I wanted to provide for. I am sure that isn't all in that location is to this blueprint, though. My daughters have been cocky sufficient and stable on their own for over a decade.
Last spring I found a groovy inspiration partner. We both wanted someone to continue us on runway to achieve our goals. Nosotros met every other week and we created a whole arrangement to proceed us motivated. It was and then exciting and then organized. 
Nosotros called our goals sun rays and each ray was a stream that we wanted to pursue and follow. In this time I got my licence to marry couples and started officiating weddings. I was blogging very regularly and many of my ideas were unfolding . I started my training to go a Kohenet (Hebrew Priestess). I was doing information technology!!! And… Then…I …Stopped !!!!!!!!! Right in the middle of doing what I was sure I loved and what I am still certain I love. What happened? One thing just….I got in my own style.
The really awesome part of all this is that it'south ok to stop and it's ok to start again. The old simply timeless song, "accept a deep breath, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start all over once more." Heed hear
What have I done? I found my old mentors again …..Sarah Ban Breathnach, Louise Hay and Sark. I dug out my vision journal and I have enjoyed looking at it once again. (some photos from my quondam vision book)
Today I am going to kickoff working on expanding that vision periodical with my new visions and discoveries. Sarah Ban Breathnach suggests that you get piles of old magazines and cut out pictures that you lot are fatigued to, putting them into carve up piles for the various parts of your life. Here is a description from one of her books.
You can commonly find Sarah's books in 2nd hand book stores. I suggest starting with "Simple Abundance". Currently I am using "Something More" as my guide.
I am ready to commit to me again…..that ways salubrious choices and exercising, it means writing out my gratitudes from the day before, giving thanks to the Goddess, reading something inspirational. It means making a commitment to my personal success by creating an activeness plan and following it though. For me it means stepping out of my usual comfort zones. It means finding joy in all the little spaces similar walking barefoot on the beach in Nov in Nova Scotia or wandering through the Allan Garden Conservatory in Toronto on Boxing Day when it is common cold and rainy outside.
