Falling...

Falling…
‘Falling in love again,what am I to do?, never wanted to, can’t help it’

Yes! I am an incurable romantic…always rooting for the love story to work out for myself and others. It’s not like I’ve never been hurt, loved and lost…Oh yes! I’ve been there, done that. I’m sure we all have,but yet my theme song ic ‘dance like no one is watching, love like you’ve never been hurt.’ Ah yes! There’s that incurable romantic again, hope springs eternal. Why am I like this I ask myself? I guess because it feels better than being an incurable cynic. Duh!
Although I’ve been burnt,I’m like a phoenix rising from the ashes. Time heals all wounds and confidence arises. I learn from my mistakes and choose more wisely the next time around. My experiences; a divorce, a break-up , make me a stonger person, having lived through it and come out the other side intact. I feel willing to risk again;scary,yet exciting. To quote St. Augustine ‘There is no greater invitation to love than loving first.’ So I make it my practice;love myself, love my family,love my friends, love my pets, love my plants, love my community on and on. Love is contagious! That’s step one. Step two : letting go …again…some more. I also practice being open and receptive and aware of opportunities. I begin to trust my inner resources which I have painstakingly developed: my stores of serenity, courage and confidence. Let me say a word here about my meditation practice and my tai chi practice. These practices are an integral part of my lifestyle.. the gift they give me is peace. So yeah, I’m in a good place in my life to trust the process with ease.

With the coming of spring, a new moon, a new season, I feel a new readyiness. I’m throwing my hat in the ring and where it lands nobody knows. This space I’m in puts out a an energy in the Universe that says, check me out! I’m ready to try again. I have more clarity than ever before on what type of person I’m wanting to be with. I now have role models in my life that make me say,’Yes! I’ll have some of that and more of that: evolved, funny, beautiful inside and out. Okay, so I’m ready,trusting the process,know what I’m wanting…the results are inevitable as a sunny day in Florida. Bring him on…Mr. Right,Now! 407
