The Journey
As I said before, I started this journey of learning to use my intuition many years ago, and now it is my life. I was looking for greater happiness, health, joy, learning, and contentment, to name a few. I have realised now there is no destination, only the next step. The luxury of reducing the number of responsibilities in my life at this time is being able to listen more closely. I had filled up my life, and there were some actions that never seemed to be a priority despite them being foundational to things such as my health.
So, as I clear some of the remaining life laundry, I am able to focus on what, ironically, are the things that truly matter and that I need. I messaged a friend this week to share a picture of a sunrise, and she had done the same. These synchronicities become a predictable outcome of living more in the flow. She is a dear friend of over 30 years, and we rarely get in contact. You know the kind of friend where nothing ever changes, and you fall straight back into the groove with no upset or recriminations about not being in touch. However, she is someone whose connection soothes my soul. She will not judge and listens to stories, new and old, about my life, making me feel truly heard and giving me more space to care for her and others in return.
As we shared these messages, I told her it was good to have the space to think about the people I truly care about. That sentiment has stayed with me this week. For me, not refilling my time is, in the short term, something that needs awareness. I ask and listen to how it makes my body feel before I add new activities and connections. My habit is to fill any space, but this does not give opportunities for new directions and people to present themselves or the option to go deeper with something or someone already in my life.
