Fly
Great Friday advice – honor that there are people who you amaze, that get excited about you, honor that and fly with it. With that feeling you could fly to the moon and back!
We are all born to make a difference in this world – many are called but few respond. Don’t waste your purpose. Fly, fly, fly!!!
Future
Sometimes we need to let go of how we thought our life should be. Instead we need to embrace the life that our soul is calling out for. The life we were meant to live.
It is scary. It can feel like we are all alone.
But maybe the journey is all about unbecoming who we are, so that we can become who we are meant to be.
Choose
It really is all about what you choose to see, and I choose to contribute to something bigger than I am and because of that choice, I am doing all of the rest. What is the one line you see here that you choose?
Baggage
Looking at this photo, we see the butterfly at the end clinging to the cocoon. For some time as it went through metamorphosis, this was the only home it knew. The butterfly is clinging to the baggage of its past. Instead it needs to send the bag to the baggage claim.
Like the butterfly, we need to give up the life we have known. You can’t continue to cling to what is no longer serving you, if you really want to start anew. This means leaving behind the bags of fears, illusions and false beliefs we carry from our past.
Scientist have proven that the moth and butterfly remember being a caterpillar. But what the caterpillar knew doesn’t serve the butterfly. The butterfly requires a different food source. It is built to fly. To try and carry the cocoon along, because it helped to create the butterfly would only weigh the butterfly down. It would not be able to fly as it was meant to.
The butterfly can honor the cocoon for the part it played in helping it to grow into a new creation. The butterfly can face the fear of flying, of letting go of the only thing it knows and fly off into the future it was born to live.
We are also carrying around baggage. The baggage could be mental, emotional, even physical items around our home. We all know the saying “as above, so below” or “how we do one thing, is how we do everything”. Physical clutter or baggage around our home and working environment is a clear sign that we also have either mental or emotional baggage that is cluttering up our life.
These are all things that no longer serve us. To get us on track to releasing the baggage, it is easiest to start with the physical clutter around us. Take a trash bag and a donate bag and start looking through everything you have in your environment. Nick knacks that no longer appeal to you, but you are keeping because a friend or relative gave them to you. Things that are broke or torn that you have been meaning to fix for months or years. These are all things that can go to either the trash or donate box.
Once you have cleared the physical space around you, you will feel lighter. If you have ever had long hair and got it cut short, your head feels so light, almost like it is floating. This same feeling is what you have as you clear up the physical clutter or baggage.
Once you see how freeing it is, you can move on with confidence to releasing the mental and emotional baggage. Soon you will be flying high like the butterfly who has left the baggage of the cocoon in the past where it belongs. Fly high into the new adventures that await you.
New World
I believe that we are all born to create a new world. To leave the world better than we found it. I believe that we are all LemonadeMakers at heart. It is up to us, how we own creating the change in our world.
Healing
The things that we go through in our lives change us forever.
Erasing what we went through would mean that we also erased the lesson we learned as a result of what happened. We don’t want to lose the lesson.
We want to heal the damage, so that the damage doesn’t control our life. We release the Victim or survivor and become the Victor.
As a Victor we get to tell our story and help to heal the journey of others.
Ultimate Goal
“Life is a process of loving, learning & letting go of the things that no longer serve us. To be happy & healthy is the ultimate goal.”
What do you need to let go of?
