quirky, you are AMAZING. 😍
As you may remember we lost our home to fire when I was young. Lived in a shed with no running water & a pit toilet up the hill for 10y plus the rest - donated clothing, food vouchers.
I worked so hard to make sure that kind of thing would never happen again to me and my family.
It's happened twice since. Homeless, bare bones, Church food.
No one would EVER say to me that I deserved that (even though some horrible people HAVE lol). No one would EVER say to you that you "attracted" bushfires. If they do, they need their head read. Flick 'em.
Not ignoring the trauma because that's real in itself; I've had a Counsellor for years now & sought specialist trauma therapy this year too. The severe triggers are minimised now.
We have NOW. The precious present. We have a path of our own making & SO many forks in our paths to make decisions about. Do we turn left or right or go straight ahead?
Where do we even START from "ground zero"? whatever that is for us.
We begin with our MIND.
Training your mind takes enormous discipline & steely pointed precise focus.
We cannot afford to have anyone sway us off of the path we KNOW is for us.
I just came out of around 6y of back to back and concurrent Court cases. 5 Courts. Same demon.
I FOCUSSED.
When EVERY single person, including all the costly Lawyers & Barristers, were telling me I couldn't keep going & I couldn't win.
I Prayed "Dear God PLEASE show me the path! I think I know I should keep going but everyone on earth is telling me not to! I am alone in this battle. IF I should stop, put a block on my path, if I should forge ahead please put the next BEST person in my path to help me. In Your name, it will be so. Amen." That type of thing for years.
The best person was always put in my path.
I won magnificently. 😎
Legal eagles were shocked. 😂
Start with a dream folder. Put EVERY SINGLE THING in there you want!
This helps keep your focus.
Watching "The Secret" over & over again helps alot.
Strategies to get out of a funk & lift you up are so important.
Keep those vibrations HIGH.
When I had nothing. When I had lost everything. I looked down at my legs that worked & out at my arms that worked. Then looked up and said Thank You GOD. I am so grateful!
I still do this now when I'm overwhelmed.
Being grateful for what we DO have is the point to start.
Where there is breath, there is Hope and Hope Anchors the Soul.
Love & billions of Blessings
