Ok, so it was time to re-evaluate a few priorities again. Yes. It’s a constant struggle, this thing called life. Always encountering situations where we can continue to create who we are.
Sometimes on this journey, we encounter situations that test our integrity. What do we believe, who are we, what do we want to project. Do we compromise what we know is right even just for a little while because, well, we just “need to?” Do we have something to prove or does our mind go a mile a minute rationalizing the situation? We women are good at that. Do we take care of ourselves or someone else at the cost of our own integrity? Do we have something we did that we are not proud of and that we beat ourselves up for?
Here’s a news flash. Everyone does. Cut your self a break! As women, we evaluate, questions, evaluate again, dissect a situation to death! Why this, why that, what did I do to bring this on, and even “What was I thinking!”
All we have to remember, at any time, in any situation, is who we are and what we want to be is defined by our actions. That really is it. And if we stumble, if we fall, if we experience a “What the hell did I do” moment, it’s ok. Make amends and apologies if it’s needed, and forgive yourself….for being human, having a lapse in judgement or for losing yourself for the moment, and move on with your fantastic, wonderful life. Because it is! Believe that too, and if you don’t, well that’s another subject all together. “What do you need to be happy.”
Integrity. It is what we believe and how we act based on those beliefs. Make no mistake. Actions speak louder than words and if you are not acting in alignment with your beliefs or words, you might need to evaluate what you really do believe, or who you really are. And people, that can be a painful realization sometimes. But not one that can’t be changed. That’s what life is all about, the journey…constant change….evaluation of self, connection and Love …always love. At least that is what this writer believes. Besides, How boring would life be without challenges, change and growth?
So as I sit by the pool in beautiful Palm Springs, (yes, I have to brag) I am grateful for everything and everyone in my life. My family and friends fill me with love and I am blessed for it. My work (All of the various hats I wear) fulfills me. My work relationships can be challenging, but I would have it no other way for it helps me grow. And I thank mother/father/god for my life, my experiences and the lessons that move me closer to oneness, for truly, we are all one. Blessed be,,…
GO AND GET IT! Whatever it is!
