Monday Motivation: Take it All In. Breathe. Begin Again
“You will be lost and unlost over and over again.
Relax love, you were meant to be this glorious, epic. Story”.
Nayyariah Waheed
I stumbled on this quote a few days ago and I connected deeply to it. I felt this emotion that can best be described as peace. Lately I have felt so lost, simply going through the motions, flailing and overwhelmed on all sides. But like the quote aptly puts it, it’s all part of a glorious, epic story,
So, I resolved to let go of things beyond my control. It feels good to worry about nothing, to simply take each day as it comes, leaving things to work themselves out. And watch as things eventually begin to fall into place, maybe not as I would like it to, but hey, it’s like the saying goes “As long as there’s life, there’s hope”
So here is my take home for you dear friend.
Life with all its twist and turns will turn you inside out. There will be pain, there will be moments of despair, there will be heartache, confusion, anxiety, and there will be lot of times when you will doubt yourself and your ability to accomplish all that you have set your mind to. That will be the perfect time to go into full blown panic mode, but Let it go! Whatever it is that has you worked up, bothered, worried or anxious…
Let it go!
There is not much you can do to control the situation anyway. Things will not always go as planned, you will not always make the best decisions, people will disappoint you, and you will disappoint yourself. Like I said, it is Life!!!
So, take it in: the confusion, the despair, the anxiety, the pain, the disappointments, the heartache, the confusion, the struggle.
Take it all in…
Breathe and begin again.
Here is wishing you an amazing week ahead!
Whenever you feel lost this month and in the ones to come, don’t forget to breathe and begin all over.
