In the Blink of an Eye
Where does 18 years of your life go? I asked myself that last Wednesday sitting at Amanda's High School graduation. I think how can life pass you by in literally a blink of an eye. From one day to the next, I hear people saying I don't have time for that.
Now I wonder, if you don't have time for the little things in life, how do you have time for the other things, like chatting on the phone, going on vacation, planning for retirement, stopping for lunch, visiting with friends. When I think of that I realize I make time, meaning I plan for it.
7 years ago, I made a conscious decision to stop saying when I get a round tuit. I still have the round tuit, from attending the apple festival in West Virginia with my family as a young child. I pull that out from time to time to remind myself, I have the round tuit and just need to Feel the Fear and get tuit. Prostrastination, in the past was my middle name. I was sabotaging myself from all the things I really wanted to do in life. Owning my own successful business was on the top of my priority list. I could see the tendencies to procrastinate with that. I would say I was going to write my goals down and in the blink of an eye, a week had gone by and I hadn't written a thing down. Owning your own business you can't fly by the seat of your pants and expect to get where you are going.
We are conscious creators of our lives. In each given moment we choose what will happen next, whether we want to believe it or not. In the middle of an heated discussion with someone we can choose to engage with that person and give them what they want which is a heated fight or we can CHOOSE to stop take a breathe and ask what is best for your highest purpose. In the literally the blink of an eye you can change the dynamics of your life.
Where has 18 years of my life gone. In the blink of an eye, I could have continued to choose to live with my head in the sand or make that decision to become awake and aware of my highest good. We can get so caught up in the mundane of life that we forget to breathe, blink, and let go of that that isn't our highest and greatest good.
In the past 18 years, I was stuck in pain of my past, and reflected that outwordly. Children are our greatest teachers, if you want to know how your life is turning out, look at what your children are mirroring to you. 18 years of having your daughter mirror to you your pain, is something I am choosing to let go of for my children and myself. Pain in form of our self image and how we perceive ourself is damaging. God created each one of us in perfection of what he sees in each of us. Who am I to say that was wrong. We then are judging ourselves and everyone around us. We are here to live in our joy and bliss and not our self limiting beliefs of judgement of ourselves and everyone else.
I ask you in the blink of an eye where has the last 18 years of your life gone. Are you still living in pain of the past or are you choosing to live in the moment of your joy and bliss?
