I’m writing this from my bed. And it’s 5 to 10… am, that is.
I got up, had breaky and slid back into bed where I felt like I needed nurturing today.
See, I’ve been on a journey. A magnificent, magical, wonderful journey. And I’m a little bit tired.
The last three years I’ve been doing internal work – you know, to better myself. But the last three months I have really kicked it up a notch. And it’s had both its blessings and its sorrows.
It’s been a real time of reflection. A real time of looking inward and shining the spotlight on the good and not so good things about myself. The reality is, it’s all good. It just needs refining and discovering.
Coinciding with this, I’m reading Neale Donald Walsch’s Conversations with God. You don’t need to necessarily believe in God to read a book like this. Perhaps you believe God is you. Fabulous. What I’m finding fascinating is the messages it has for exactly what the bloody hell we’re meant to be doing here.
A message that struck a chord with me last night, which links back to my journey, has been that we’re not here to change. We’re here to reveal ourselves.
We, at our very core, know exactly what we need to do, how we need to do it, who we really are… but we allow fear to get in the way. Fear, in whatever form it shows up in, prevents us from revealing ourselves to ourselves and the world.
The only other option is love.
And that’s what internal work does for people. Reflecting the mirror on ourselves allows us to see exactly what choices we make based on fear or on love. And changing from fear based to love based can be really, really tiring as our egos shed the familiarity of choosing fear over love.
And that’s why I’m still in bed! But geez, once we’re through that shedding, the other side is worth it. Oh so worth it.
Are you making choices based on fear or love?
With love

PS. I’m getting up now. I still have my responsibilities to meet – these ones are based on love 😉
