The thing that makes you think, “No way, not possible.”
Got it? Now flip the script: “What if it was possible? What then?”
Yea, something similar happened to me in 2020 too! I recall buying a sticker for my bike ride across India in the Fall of 2019, it said: "If you are losing the game change the rules." And I didn't really know what it meant at the time, but that I liked it. And by a year later, I knew. Time for me to own the Reset. So it went like this with my wife:
Lets go, lets get out of here.
Where?
Choose someplace, anywhere!
How about Zanzibar?
Now we live in Tanzania, rebuilding everything in our life, finding new friends, finding new work, and really stepping into my life. Amidst raising children the past twenty years, we'd completely forgotten our dream from being in the Peace Corps in Africa, but in Zanzibar, we remembered it again.
So now I am off in a month to our land for good, five acres of peace and an orchard I started with hundreds of trees two years ago, with lots of new expat friends, a new language to speak (Swahili) and building something for the future.
Easy? Hah, the most difficult thing I've ever done. But so little resistance along the way, and doors continually opening, that it was really just a matter of keeping to the details and moving toward the goal with faith in the vision.
Wow, thanks for sharing that, and a big applause that you did this and followed this path! I am also on a similar journey with a vision, but I am "just getting started"😁
Great post! At the moment I'm mired in the chaos and some days it's difficult to see if I've made any progress. I know I have, people are falling out of my life, which comes with a certain amount of sadness but it feels like absolutely the right thing to do. But... (I've got a shopping list of excuses with which to fill in the blanks 😁). Ah well, tomorrow is a new day😁
Oh I know how you are feeling! Going through similar stuff..so many changes at once, its a nice challenge to get used to the lighter energies. Listen to "anew" by hollow coves, I think it might fit for you right now..
Thank you, Tobias. I like the idea that from chaos emerges truth for this is exactly how it works. It’s like with my daughter’s bedroom, when it becomes too messy and impossible to operate, I take everything out, sort everything, throw some away and put the rest back together in a different way. A new room emerges from the mess. Then my daughter grows up, she’s not the same kid anymore and doesn’t interact with the same items, so we do it again so that her outside world matches her inner one... It is the same with our lives when we grow back to our true selves: we look at the inoperative mess that our lives are, stop and take out everything, sort and throw lots of unuseful things away freeing ourselves in the process, imagine what kind of dream room we want to live in and start to build it.
Though I am in the building phase myself, it is still a little chaotic for I have so many things I want to experience but one specifically has emerged, « sent by the Gods ». it’s been simmering on the stove for a few months now and I hope it will be cooked pretty soon, meaning entering the synchronicity phase whereas I am still in the preparation phase. I read somewhere that the higher the waiting, the higher the outcome, so I might be on for quite a ride! Lots of love.
Sounds about right. Hang in there. It’s called growing pains! Be prepared though. With growth comes knowledge, sometimes about things you wished weren’t so. Then you must act! Phew. It’s hard to be young! Many blessings & ☮️, Lisa
Thank you Lisa for your honesty! Yes the growing paind can be intense, but I am used to them, and feel soooooooo much lighter than a few years ago. I let go of so much baggage, did much energy-work..I am happy to be on this journey and look forward with joy to more growth and healing, even if it hurts!🙏🏼
As long as we are not transcending dualism, pain is necessary, so we know joy, pleasure, healing… Our inner child, outer adult , etc. You’re on the path. And aware. “Praise be.” And many blessings. :)
Thats beautiful Geraldine, thank you for sharing all of that. "As above so below" might fit for all of this:)
And I think thats a wonderful, infinite process that never started and never will stop, and still, we differenciate between different phases of our life😁
I believe I just entered the full synchronicity phase, where I dont just see numbers and some "coincidences", here and there, but fully realize that every moment has its purpose and is already in synchronicity..but still quite a ride for me too! If you want to hop on a call sometime and get to know our journey, just dm me, I would be open for that:)
