Restoring my soul.

How is it March already? The year is already flying by and my annual bucket list sits untouched. My travel plans have been derailed thanks to the World unrest in the states of Persia and flights being so erratic.

This month sees me taking care of family business interstate, which will finalise my parents estate and allow my siblings and I to finally move on from the chaos that was left behind. We may have time to finally grieve their passing more deeply and cleanse the built up anxiety from our hearts and minds.

Add to that two huge milestone birthdays that need to be celebrated; a sister in law is turning 60 and a brother in law is turning 70. Their celebrations are 2 weeks apart in the same city, which means I get to go home and see my kids for 2 weeks in between.

Also for those 2 weeks of limbo I may be able to finalise the clearing of our “stuff” at our old house and hand it over fully to our kids. Perhaps this will make it easier for them to create a space for themselves, that they can call their own.

I want this year to be a healing year, a year of moving on from the past and finding new paths to fulfillment, however that may present itself. Healing for me doesn’t necessarily reflect the spiritual “woo woo” sacred healing (although there may be some elements of that). It’s about putting aside the old demons, the old thought patterns that I hold of myself and my capabilities and actually explore without fear or favour new opportunities.

I can be fully me, now, no incumbents of small dependent children dictating my every waking moment. My husband has given me his blessing, acknowledging that I need an outlet for my creativity and passion away from him. What all that looks like, I have no idea yet, however I will enjoy the road to enlightenment.

Whatever your March holds for you I hope it brings you joy or deeper awareness.

Namaste.
