Embracing the Journey: Gratitude and Growth
Consider that you are exactly at the moment you thought you wanted to be, hearing the words from your wayfinder: "You have arrived at your destination." You are there, at any given moment. Rest in the knowing that you’re exactly where you wanted to be. If you have arrived yet still desire more—after all, that is what life is about—then reset your navigation.
It is okay, even preferable, to revel in the moment, knowing you are exactly where you are supposed to be. How does that feel? Rest in it, feel comforted, and then keep going. If you've arrived at your final destination, you would be done with this life experience, but you're not finished until you’re ready.
You’ve done what you wanted to do, and when you're ready to lay down the mantle and take a much-needed rest, you’ll wake rested and refreshed, understanding all. Know that it was all for you to experience, to play. So, while you’re still in it, what would you do differently? How about anything you desire that brings you satisfaction and fills your cup to overflowing?
The example you set in life encourages others to do the same. Squeeze every bit of juice from the lemon of life, and as has been said, make lemonade with the lemons you are given. It’s all sweet, it’s all relish, and it’s all for you. Raise your hands, heart, and face to the sky, and thank yourself and the universe for the opportunities you are given.
Enjoy the life you have, and then rest, knowing you’ve completed and used it all to your benefit and that of others. Love the life you live.
