I guess I'm at the age where I'm becoming increasingly conscious of the passing of time. Having three grown step-kids is a constant reminder of what my own three children will soon become in the mere blink of an eye.
This also gives cause for reflection on my own life and achievements and I've decided that I want more. Unfortunately I am very well programmed into societies conditioning to want things immediately or to give up and move on. I'm working on changing this. It's hard but not impossible.
There are things that I believe with my whole heart that I don't give myself the chance to follow through with. I think this is a fairly common human trait but holding onto these limitations is no longer acceptable to me. I guess it hasn't been acceptable for a while but, like I say, getting things from my belief system to my reality is not something that I've been putting into practice for most of my life.
It's very empowering to be working with the knowledge that I have been collecting all of the little bits and pieces that I will need to create the reality that I want. An undeniable belief in that knowledge was the gift from my higher self at the last full moon ritual (thanks, Jewell) and I'm very excited to be existing in that space right now.

Shouldn't This Qualify?
I've found myself with a very sudden change of direction - or at least a change in attitude about my current situation and a desire for a change of direction. I'm the first to admit that consistency and maintaining enthusiasm when there are so many things that spark my interest are not my strong points, but it feels different this time - somehow not just feasibly but actually possible and growing more so every day.
It is all very positive and it has a bit of a "This Is Your Life" theme happening, although, of course, I won't have famous sports stars, people from the entertainment industry or long lost family members and mentors coming out to tell fun anecdotes about me in the good ole days - but the voice in my head does do a pretty good impersonation of Mike Monroe.
Inspired, I am. Not for the first time, but I tell my kids that you get better at things with practice, so why shouldn't this qualify?
