LESSONS AND BLESSINGS: Broke but Not a Joke!
By society's standards, I would be considered a broke ass failure. Less than $200 in savings and more bills than I care for, I am not exactly winning at the financial game. Luckily for me, I don't give a F*ck about society's standards!
The past year and a half has been a complete uphill overhaul for every single fiber of my being. From leaving my secure job to shedding unnecessary debt, my logic and intuition were constantly at war. It wasn't until this year that I began seeing the beacon of light at the end of the dark ass tunnel. Not only did I embrace becoming a minimalist, I welcomed the internal restructuring of my thoughts, feelings, & actions.
As I was working out the other day I journeyed into deep thought and took note of all of the internal changes I have made. Some of the things I recognized were, I no longer hit the snooze button, which subconsciously put me in control of my day. Instead of looking at social media or emails with one eye open, I used the first 30 minutes to fully awaken, recall my dreams and reoccurring thoughts, and get in tune with the messages that are being unveiled to me.
Also, I dared to be honest with myself without judgment. It was difficult to admit out loud that I was being lazy as hell. It was painful to realize that I was partially holding back my truth because of fear of what my family and the world think. It was torture to see that I was WAY too comfortable. Comfortable in my marriage, comfortable as a parent to my dogs, comfortable as an Employee, comfortable as a daughter, sister, homey, lover and a friend. My level of comfort was outright sickening. For the first time, I was able to admit that I was the ONLY reason I did not reach my mountaintop yet. In this situation, my security turned out to be my enemy in disguise. In my eyes, that made me public enemy number one.
Promptly after having this heart to heart with myself I began making immediate changes. Yesterday and tomorrow dissipated into the wind. Today became my saving grace, and forever emerged as my 11th commandment. As I continue to seamlessly embrace all of these changes I can physically feel the shackles gently falling off my body. I feel the cement blocks crumbling from around my feet. I feel the wings sprouting from my back. I hear the wind singing the sweetest song in my ears as the momentum grows stronger and stronger. Finally, for the first time in my life, I feel the most brilliant hue of pride that I could have never conjured up in my wildest dreams. I detect God within me, I observe God around me & I recognize the god that I am.
Although, my success may not be visible to the naked eye, I feel that I have entered my piece of Nirvana on Earth. I finally over-stand the strength of inner peace, inner power, and inner wisdom. I may be broke according to societies standards, but I for DAMN sure will NEVER be a joke!
Time to take flight!
