My heart is so heavy today- with Ida beating down the Gulf Coast- especially Louisiana and the devastation that was left in its path. That on the anniversary of Katrina- How does one even begin to process reliving the trauma of 16 years ago all over again?
I think about the people in California who are struggling in the fires- the people in Palestine and the Afghanistan people. So much suffering and tragedy- there are days when I don’t know how to manage & yet on the grand scheme of things I know how very blessed I am in my own life. I can choose to ignore but yet- where is the human in humanity in that? So I tether along trying to decide how I can best be of service to those in need.
I feel in life as though I am on a cusp of something different. So many huge happenings for myself- and it has meant closing some doors to allow others to open- to challenge myself and yet also be open to say no- and also recognize the right opportunities when they appear.
Some things no longer serve me- yet I continue to hold on out of habit- security- or who knows? What I do know- in order to continue this path- I need to keep trusting the process- and learn that letting go means trusting- and accepting the new beginnings that will be even better. It doesn’t mean they will always be smooth sailing- but it means knowing that ultimately- I’m doing the right thing- When you know, you know. Trust the process including the growing pains-
