(YOU)niverse has my back
It was one of those mornings!
I woke up 2 hours earlier than I usually do because I had to leave the house for a doctor’s appointment. I felt good! Got myself prepared to leave the house and then….
I couldn’t find my insurance card. I saw it in my head laying on the table. It wasn’t there though. I decided, it’s OK. They’ll be fine to get it later today.
Then, I couldn’t find my keys. I entered the wrong address into GPS and I drove poorly to my appointment in a rush and everything on my seat ended up on the floor board.
When I finally made it to my appointment, they said I was too late and needed to reschedule. Yep. Expected that. By the time I got back to my car, I knew I needed a reset. Breathe. I turned everything off (except the car/heat-it’s cold here!) and measured my breath to get back to stillness. Yes. My morning wasn’t anything like I’d planned. Yes. I was late and had to reschedule an appointment that I had waited 3 weeks for. Yes. I have to redo all the cute deliveries I assembled because of my poor driving. AND I am OK. I am here. I am love. I am whole. I AM CAPABLE. I am expansive. I am the universe and the universe is me. The universe has my back.
Honestly, it took a few minutes to get myself back to stillness.
It helped though because I had an entire day to conquer. So, I looked in the rearview mirror to readjust and noticed I lost one of my fancy earrings. Mer. Not today.
I got lost three times while trying to drop off the marketing packets I had made.
I’m learning that when someone says Springfield, sometimes they mean WEST Springfield. Same thing with Longmeadow and East Longmeadow. I almost ran out of gas because I was searching for buildings that didn’t exist on streets in the wrong cities. I had 10 miles left and found the gas station. I jumped out and started the pump and then briskly jumped back in. The gas attendant told me he would be happy to keep pumping it for me. There it is. The universe having my back.
Made it home and decided a further reset was needed.
I took off my fancy pants and climbed into bed for a luxurious 20 minute nap. The two cats and I slept and they providied a purring weighted blanked. It was just what I needed. Thank you (YOU)niverse. I almost felt guilty about the nap but then reminded myself that I’m super productive and if a 20 minute nap is what I need to go out and be a beast at life for the rest of the day, then I’m going to congratulate myself for taking it instead of berating myself for needing it. I put my fancy pants back on headed out to complete my tasks in time to make dinner. There it is again. (YOU)niverse having my back.
How many times do we put our own needs aside for others when no one needs us more than we need ourselves? Or we look for solutions for our problems outside instead of reflecting on this abundance we have within.
This is why I started shifting to YOUniverse instead. I knew that I could get back to good with everything I had inside me. My own divine knowing and stillness would help me see clear again and bring my own peace. That’s not to say that I don’t need people. I definitely need human connection. However, recognizing that I am capable of doing hard things and making decision on my own is empowering. I can change the way I feel with my breath.
BREATHE
Although my day started a little rough, I’m still so grateful for all the things that went right in that day. I have a car that has GPS and heated seats and gets excellent gas mileage. I am able to do work that is fulfilling and flexible that I can take a 20 minute nap with cats that purr while I sleep. I have fancy pants and fancy earrings that help me get into a confident zone when cold calling businesses. I was never turned away once I made it to the businesses. Today, EVERYONE was cordial to me when my mood was rough. Bottom-line Universe has my back.
Stay well, friends. YOU are important.
