Reflections

Reflections on now…

I find myself now in a place forced to stay some what less mobile (an understatement), than this fiercely independent woman is accustomed to enduring. My bottom line has always been, I just don’t stay down well. I’ve always had to do for myself in life, and my daughter, as I raised her alone. So what to do now that I am in this forced state of limited mobility?

The universe sometimes gives us a shove when a gentle push doesn’t work anymore… I’ve now been gifted with the time to clean up some serious procrastinations that have been hanging up my life.

That’s the blessing… If there is one to be seen in this mess…

First, I am taking some time and heeding the message that sometimes when the going gets tough, the tough do need to slow down and take some time to heal.

Food For Thought

Today’s Food For Thought is via Marianne Williamson on Facebook…

Fear is to Love what darkness is to light. It’s not a thing, but the absence of a thing. So when our minds are filled with love, we’re less vulnerable to fear. This translates on a practical basis into: In any situation where I’m upset, who could I be kinder to, who could I forgive, where can I be more open-hearted in my thinking and my responses?
