I just noticed that it’s been a while since I wrote my last blog post, so I asked myself why!
I mean…
- My blog IS about gratitude!
As a matter of fact…
- it’s about feeling blessed and finding joy in the little things too!
So I had to ask myself…
- Does the fact that I haven’t written a ‘piece’ in a while imply that I no longer feel grateful and blessed?
- Or does it imply that I don’t appreciate the little things anymore?
And you know what I realized?
That the answer is…
- absolutely not’!!!
The fact that I haven’t written in a while has nothing to do with any of those things, BUT, it IS a warning!
- It is my body and my soul’s way of communicating to me, that I need to slow down and ‘recalibrate’.
- It is my ‘inner person’, ‘my being’, trying to tell me that it’s way too noisy ‘in here’.
Basically, I recognize that I’ve been moving so fast under the guise of ‘busy-ness’, that I can’t ‘hear’ myself, over myself!
My head has been trying to tell me…
- “Slow down and silence the noise! I can’t think straight because I’m out of touch with your emotions!”
And my heart has been trying to tell me…
- “Slow down and silence the noise! There’s too much feedback so I can’t ‘feel’ all the beautiful things that surround you, that I want to feel… because there’s too much stuff in here. It’s too darn ‘noisy!'”
As a matter of fact, my entire being has been screaming…
- “Slow down and silence the noise!!!”
But I couldn’t hear it… or maybe I didn’t want to???
Anyway today, I slowed down…
- I slowed down long enough to write this post.
- And I slowed down long enough to remember how beautiful ‘calm’ feels.
And with any luck…
- I’ve slowed down long enough to remind you to slow down too;
- and hopefully, find joy in one LITTLE THING today!
