When life get's too much
Some days are harder than others. I've been clearing out a lot of "stuff" from my cupboards and getting rid of all sorts of things. Old things. Things I no longer need or want. Broken things I promise to fix. Clothes I wish will fit one day again. Old letters, cards, photo's.... things I've been holding on to for year and years that don't have a purpose anymore. Sorting out things that I have decided to keep and finding some order in my life.
Part of making space for new things in life, is letting go of the things that no longer serve you. That includes friends and relationships too.
I feel like I'm in a bit of limbo. Not sure where to next. What life has in store for me.
And although I'm happy with my life over all, I'm not quite where I thought I would or 'should' be at this stage in my life.
I'm in a space of waiting... of allowing... and I have to admit, it's frustrating...

Be kind
Be kind. Be kind to yourself. Be kind to others. Being at peace with yourself is not based on the people in your life and their words or actions. Instead of focusing on who is right and who is wrong, when you have the choice, and you always have a choice, practice being kind rather than being right. With your loved ones, your boss, a waiter, the air hostess, people in the traffic.
You will shift into happiness. Only you are responsible for how you feel.
How to 'be': When you have a choice, and you always do... to be right or to be kind, start choosing kind. Operating from ego will bring unnecessary pain. Being kind, that brings happiness and peace. There is an element of understanding that people who show up in our lives, are here to teach us something about ourselves. Instead of trying to be right, rather discover these lessons...
People who are good at getting what they want shift their gaze to the things they want. They know what they desire and they set their intention to a positive outcome. Are you trying to find your passion?
What do you perceive to be possible for yourself? You may need to relook at what you believe about yourself.

Forgiveness
Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.

Thought
"Every journey ends, but we go on. The world turns and we turn with it. Plans disappear. Dreams take over. But wherever I go, there you are — my luck, my fate, my fortune.
-- BradPitt in the Chanel No. 5 Ad
If someone loves you, love them back, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love, helping you open your heart and eyes, to things you would never have seen or learnt about yourself or felt, without them... make every day count.

Unlocking your joy
The things that we call "going wrong" in life is actually the distance between the things that are so right and your current perspective about it.
All that is required to move forward is to look in the direction of what you want, and no longer focus on what you don't want. Give your attention to the positive aspects that are around you, look for things to feel good about, even though there are things to feel bad about, with the determination to train yourself into the best feeling.
Focus on the best of the positive aspects that surround you. Stand where you are right now, and look for things to appreciate even there aren't that many. Make this your dominant intention, and you will move forward positively in life, when you start feeling hopeful.
When you lean in the direction of what feels best and believe and expect good things to come your way, you will see evidence of this every day.
[inspired by Esther Hicks]

9 Things I learnt this weekend
1. You will never leave where you are, until you decide where you want to be
2. Do whatever makes you happy, but do it now
3. Don't forget to love yourself. You are worth it and deserve the best.
4. Breathe, everything will be ok. Have unfading courage in your heart wherever you go.
5. Stand for what you believe in, even if you stand alone
6. Spend time with people who bring out the best in you and who make you smile for days after you've been together
7. Live life for the moment because everything else is uncertain, take advantage of what is right in front of you.
8. Don't limit yourself based on the 'the right thing to do'. Take risks, and do things that make you feel good with people who enjoy being with you
9. Never regret the things that ended. Let them go. There is so much more waiting for you!
