This week's prompt was actually challenging for me. There was a time in my life when I wished I could be anyone but me. I always had amazing gifts and talents inside but I just couldn't see them. Then one day, through life's ups and downs,those gifts and talents were brought forth slowly one by one. I felt like a brand new shiny penny. Today, my life is blessed and so different than what I could have possibly imagined. I am:
A devoted wife
A loving mother
Compassionate
Interesting
A creative force to be reckoned with
Faithful
Sensual
Spiritual
44 years YOUNG
Playful
My greatest challenge with myself in this moment is trying to find out what my life's purpose is from a work standpoint. On the hardest days, I forget about my gifts and uniqueness and I behave like a wounded animal instead of the divine being that I know I am. I lose my footing on my path with God. My greatest wish for myself is to stay rooted in my faith that my perfect path is already unfolding. I wish for more patience as I walk it every day. I wish to honor every loving attribute about myself even when I find myself paddling upstream in a boat called "self-pity".

ReplyDeleteFirst, your comment to Grace was very kind. And I wanted to let you know that.
Next, please, I know because I'm there with you...do not let yourself be defined by what you do. Especially when it's so hard to find a place of satisfying employment, it's so easy to do...
But, the Jane we love has nothing to do with the Jane who earns a paycheck. I also understand how it is to be without that part of a satisfying identity...but you and I are so much more than what we don't have in our lives at the moment.
Jane, as you wish for yourself, so I lovingly and with intention wish for YOU also.
I like YOU so much.

ReplyDeletePS I have a little 3-page worksheet for visioning your ideal work that often helps my clients get some clarity. If you think it might be useful, just drop me an email and I'll send it along.

ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful thoughts. I know it is hard to remain positive as we try to find our way with ourselves and a new job. I am in that boat myself. I will try to remain upbeat as well. Thanks for the inspiration as always.
