Shine your soul
Today was one of those sneaky kind of days that creeps up on you after too many nights of not enough sleep, or too many days of too many to do’s, or years of putting someone else’s needs before your own.
Today was one of those days where I swear I could feel the Universe nudging at my ribs, poking at my heart, pulling at my strings. The kind of day where I just feel a bit…. blah?
Not a severe feeling, but more like a dull ache. Not angry or sad or anything really, just a bit grey. Not even empty, but dusty, and dented, and depleted. The kind of day where you feel the opposite to bright.
I wished the sky to crack open the clouds and rain down with a torrential storm of fullness to fill up this void, shine up my darkness and buffer out the sharp bits, but all I hear is rain – I’ve realised that I’m going to have to get the job done myself.
If you’re feeling down, if you’re feeling stuck or stagnant, if you’re struggling and feel like you’re blocked from being wherever it is you want to be, then it’s time for you to take some action.
It’s time for some soul shining, some brightening and some lightening up.
No one else can do the work for us, no one else can shift and shine, brighten and buff – it’s got to be you.
So even though that feeling of blah’ness is just sort of lingering in the background, even though it’s there, fading in and fading out, I’ve decided that today is going to be a good day anyways. I want to feel bright and hopeful and at least lighter than this.
So I’ve lit some candles and I’ve dimmed the lights, I’ve made the room cozy, and I’m just going to sit here with my home made milky amazing cappuccino and listen to the rain. I’m going to have a bath and practice some yoga and early tonight, I’m crawling into bed.
