So close to home 😔
Today my personal messages are flooding from my friends in Dubai,
which is where I was living last year.
Videos of missiles flying over their homes,
photos of buildings on fire,
urgent messages from the UAE government,
seeing the smoke from the attack in the airport,
hearing the panic and fear in my loved ones...
And just imagining what everyone in the middle east is living.
It's scary.
It's a lot.
This sick chess board we live on... it's a lot.
We also just got news my husband is being sent into the region on mission,
that's all I can say about that,
but it's also horribly unsettling.
But we are meant to just live our days,
make breakfast, go to work, scroll social media... and just numb ourselves along.
I just can't.
I just can't do it.
So here is how I get by:
- I TRIPLE down on my nervous system - my health pratices are DIALED. This is NECESSARY.
- I journal, pray & trust.. I give my faith to the higher unfolding and pray.
- I do what I can - I double down on my work, my calling, my soul's mission and orient my mind, heart and soul towards being in service.
- Surround myself with people who are walking a similar path & purpose.
I do that SO imperfectly, I don't have fully dialed in systems, I don't have all the answers,
but I don't need to. I know I have enough to make even a little impact, and I rely on what I do have and what I can control... it's either that or lose my mind, or numb myself stupid. I've done both of those things and they aren't the answer.
When things feel super crazy, I go back to those 4 basics...
and that is how I get by 🙏
