Vibration, frequency, life, love, all ingredients in the recipe of the soul and it's journey. Some days it's sprinkled with challenges, some days good ole fashioned fun. The days sprinkled with challenges can be overwhelming and we might choose not to face them. The fun days we might ride along with them hoping they never end. At the core of each experience our core beliefs. They are a big part of our foundation and some of them allow us to love freely and some hold us back from experiencing the gifts that life has to offer. Awareness of self and the choices we make are based on our beliefs. To be in the space with awareness of this all is such a gift. There have been many years in life when this awareness of self and chosen beliefs were not an option for me to see. These times exactly what they were supposed to be and through those lessons I learned so much. All the laughs, tears, growing pains, lessons, have brought me to this space as I exactly am. I've described myself before as "a fabulously complicated jigsaw puzzle piece, with stunning colors, wildly serrated edges, oceans of emotion, mountains of possibilities, worlds of talent, and complex energies always looking to be in service to others and self." As I was saying, so many lessons, so much love and loss and it's all perfect. At one point I shied away from using that work "perfect". It gets used so often in a space of judgement. As of late I've come back around to embracing it as everything is perfect. Everything is exactly as it's supposed to be and the sooner we see this and have an awareness of it we can exhale.
I know that I haven't written weekly at the blog like I'd intended back in January. As I've written in past posts I'm 100% okay with this and do not judge myself for it. I accept it as it is and it's all perfect. I've been exactly where I'm supposed to be enjoying the experience I'm supposed to. Not all of them rosy and rainbow coloured but all of them healing and allowing me to live out the actions of life and be present. Falling into the ebb and flow of life and trusting it. Loving it. Growing and allowing. Letting these words flow onto the screen not judging or editing them. Knowing all is well. Embracing the pull of the "mind monkey" calling to distract and try to tell me "how it should be done" or "what I should be saying". Knowing that the quilt of my life is growing and changing and myself being okay and embracing. Knowing that the direction of my "career" is shifting and I'm becoming more and more in service to others as my toolkit grows. I'm paddling with the flow uncertain of the waters ahead, even more uncertain of the direction but knowing all is well and I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be. Believing and trusting that things will become clear as they are meant to. My trust unwavering and for that I'm eternally grateful. Paddle, paddle, paddle, flow, flow, flow, breathe, breathe, breathe, love, love, love. Soaking up the waves as they crest and fall in love with life and the journey. As always sending love and aloha your way as you navigate the waters of your journey. xxoo Jodi
