You Are Where You Are Meant To Be
It may not feel like it, but you are in the right place; exactly where you are meant to be right now. This is hard to digest when you feel like Dorothy, sucked up in a swirling cyclone, begging to be spit out, praying to land in some magical place. Anyplace other than where you are at the moment will be a change, you’re sure of it, but for better, for worse, who knows.
The problem may be that we think too much about what we can’t see. We’re unsure what we really want or where we should go. We’re sure it isn’t this and it isn’t here and whatever crap and bad circumstances are happening in our life at the moment. People. Jobs. Health. Finances. Obligations. Strife comes in many flavors.
Or maybe it’s simple; just an itch you have. A deep seated feeling that you have more to offer the world. That you are meant for more than what your daily life is right now. We feel something better is out there, waiting for us to get there. It’s around the corner or on the other side of the fence.
Our feelings tell us that if only we could go that way. In another direction. With that person. To do that thing.
But something or someone (or you) holds you by the heels, competing against your struggle for independence and individuality. You’re lost in your own space. To admit this may mean you must disregard obligations or turn away from people. And as loving creatures, to admit wanting to put ourselves forward flies in the face of doing the right thing, no matter how much it hurts.
Many days I wander around my own house feeling lost, wishing there was a ‘You Are Here’ map between the kitchen and the living room.
I believe we are in the right place all the time. Hindsight is the only indicator of this truth, which does our psyche no good while we’re in the wilderness of our own heads. Ah, yes, so that’s why all this shit happened; I didn’t get that promotion or the house sale fell through, etc.
Trust the universe, my friends, that you are exactly where you are supposed to be. Look for the ‘You Are Here’ signs.
BE F-G AWESOME TODAY!
