Thank You Muchas Gracias


It is amazing what alone time can do to rejuvenate the mind, body and soul. My hermit tendencies are an essential aspect of my Being. Thank you Nicaragua for this confirmed revelation. My previous post was rushed and a compilation of word vomit; my last ditch effort to somehow have a written record of a weeks worth of crazy adventures squeezed amidst 14 hour work days. Yesterday, after a blitzkrieg morning on autopilot, I retired to my hotel bed around 2pm and stayed there for 19 hours. Only getting up to use the bathroom and order dinner - delivered to my room of course. Today, after another crazy morning of work, I went for a long run followed by yoga in my room. Now I sit alone, drinking a glass of wine, listening to music, reading Absolutely On Purpose, and absorbing the energy of this restaurant (El Tercer Ojo) and most importantly this exact moment in my life. Less than 24 hrs ago I was feeling broken and over-used. An intention of mindful reconnection with ones Self has truly provided an unexplainable shift in perspective and energy. I feel grateful, happy and open. All smiles.

 

On another note, contemplation, thought and energy have been projected towards understanding my unquenchable need and desire for adventure, experience, and freedom. There's a fire within my soul, my whole Being, that continuously expands my vision of possibilities. Thank you Holly Beck for introducing me to the saying and therefore meaning of, "Anything is possible." That has changed my life, truly. I've listened and felt the extreme moments of euphoria followed closely by hardship. With those experiences, this adventure has thus far reaffirmed my need to "continue and keep on." Continue to laugh so hard my belly hurts, continue to clasp my hands together to find stillness from adrenaline and fear, continue to let go of control and schedule, continue to smile and project positivity no matter the situation or obstacle, continue to bow my head in exhaustion and allow tears to fall to release the utmost feeling of complete defeat, continue to be vulnerable and confident with that state, and and to continue to absorb energy, knowledge and experiences. Thank you life, thank you universe, thank you food and water, thank you to all whom have helped me find the inner confidence and self love I've lacked for far too long.

Some food for thought: never doubt yourself. Never doubt a decision or choice - it's the choice you made, so it is correct. "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams, and live the life you have imagined" - Henry David Thoreau
We are all here to be a part of one another. Be kind, because it feels correct to be kind. So much love and gratitude to all whom have touched my life and my heart. I appreciate you.
