01 Sep I AM RESILIENT
For everything, there is a season. A time to run, and time to rest; a time to laugh and time to cry; a time to hold on and time to let go. September is a time to harvest all that we have cultivated all year and as we approach the new season of Autumn, let’s enjoy the beautiful changes of nature as the leaves on the trees turn beautiful shades of red, orange, yellow and browns. At the same time, let’s enjoy the changes within us as we let go of the old energies of outmoded beliefs about ourselves and the limitations we set and let’s continue to create the new energies of peace, love, joy, and abundance that we so rightfully deserve.
The month of AUGUST definitely tested me to the limit. My basement was flooded from the aftermath of Hurricane Debby. I am spending hours throwing stuff out and cleaning… emptying the basement so that the demolition crew can come and then restoration.
At the same time, I lost my beloved 18 year old furbaby OLIVER, pure unconditional love. I still can’t imagine my life without his presence, purrs and cuddles.
Then a dear friend of mine Gino passed away suddenly. I will miss the wise and deep conversations we had… his amazing cooking… visits to his home in Lac Simon… and sprinkled with lots of fun, music and karaoke with our SoulTribe Family.
Each experience has shaped me, teaching resilience & strength… and fostering a deeper understanding of my journey. My heart feels broken 💔… sadness overcomes me… but I also have faith and hope that change for the better is around the corner… and that there is light at the end of the tunnel. ✨✨
“For everything, there is a season”.
I asked for Strength….And GOD gave me Difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for Wisdom….And GOD gave me Problems to solve.
I asked for Prosperity….And GOD gave me Inspiration and Creativity to work.
I asked for Courage…..And GOD gave me Challenges to overcome.
I asked for Love….And GOD gave me every lesson to learn to love mySELF.
I asked for Favors.…And GOD gave me Opportunities.
I didn’t receive everything I wanted ….I received everything I needed.
HAPPY SEPTEMBER ! and remember to……..
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly…
