Beware the backsliding

Photograph by Liz George

I made the life changing decision to move on
And it was a liberating feeling,
I felt so much lighter, relieved that I don't have to live the pain anymore.
Life was going to be so much better.
The euphoria of the decision stayed with me for days.

Stop collecting baggage

Looking back at my life...

In my teens...
I looked at the world with innocence,
People were good, everyone could be trusted,
There could be no wrong in the world.
Energy wise, no negative energies had latched on.

It's just one step at a time

I took the first step...
It was not a very big one,
Just a small step because my heart told me 'it won't hurt to try'.

I was nervous at first
Apprehensive and scared.

I took the first step...
My fears did not materialise,
Wow, I actually felt nice, lighter, happy.
I realised that there was nothing to be afraid of, nothing gobbled me up.

My confidence increased, my strength grew,
I felt better than I had in a long time.

And so I took the next step...
The apprehension and fear was less,
I was riding on the high from my first step.

And so I carried on, one step at a time
Growing in strength and courage, leaving the fear behind.

I soon realised that I had taken several steps,
And then I looked back
I could not see the person who was scared to take that first step
For the person I had become had taken charge of my life and destiny.

Looking ahead there are many more steps to take,
I take each step knowing that it can only get better.

In Love and Light

Faith and trust that things will get better

It has been such a long time since I've blogged.  A time filled with some life changing events which have had me questioning every belief and thought on what and how life should be.  What is the truth about life ?

I am writing from my experience and these are my views and perceptions.  If you do not share it, that is perfectly fine, we each have our path to follow.

Love, gratitude and positive thinking

Most of us look at things that we long for, wait for events to happen to make us happy.  We are always waiting for something to happen or to get something which we feel will make us happy and bring meaning to our life.  How much further from the truth could we be.

As we wait for things to get better, that is the intention we set - waiting for things to get better - and that is the only reality we will experience.  We will only experience what we choose to and if we choose to wait for things to happen then that is the only experience we will have.

Life as we know it

It's been a while since I sat down and blogged.  I can think of a lot of different reasons as to why I didn't sit down and pen a few lines, the list goes on.  Looking within, I realise the reason I could not write was because there was so much turmoil within myself that it it was too emotional to actually write coherently.

The Path

The path is long and winding,
Stretching ahead of you with no end in sight.

You sometimes walk, sometimes run, and maybe even skip at times
Depending on what you experience on the path.
