happiness lives in three places
letting go of what was
enjoying what it
and trusting what will be
I had a great conversation last night around shifting spaces in life. There was a point where I came to the conclusion that I am choosing joy in every moment. And this is not to say that hard times will not feel hard and pain will not hurt, but this spin on my thinking was rooted in empowerment.
No one is here to save us or to take away the pains of our lessons in this lifetime so we have the opportunity, if we choose it, to see the light, to still be kind, to learn the lesson.
It’s definitely a big one because we as humans can really ruminate in darkness, but we don’t have to, and just as I remind my students all the time in class, you choose to show up, you choose to take up this space, you choose to be part of community and growth. You too, can choose this.
Each time that we do this, it stacks the joy pile taller and taller, and we start to see this beautiful shift in alignment throughout all aspects of our lives. Life begins to flow.
We trust what will be.
