Guess who is finally back! It has been quite a while since we last had a chance to chat sharing these life hacks and trying to figure out how to be our best selves. I’d really missed being in this space. Sharing my thoughts and baring out my heart to you. What I like most are the responses I always get because they always remind me that we are all just humans trying to do what we think is right for us and sometimes those around us. I really missed you guys and I hope the wait did nothing to turn you away. Rather, I hope you have taken some time to try out at least one of the self care habits that I had shared with y’all earlier.
I’m glad to be back here to share self care habits that I practice, or at least try to as often as possible. I’ll admit part of the wait was based off self judgement for the break. It’s interesting what goes on in our heads. It’s even more interesting what happens when you listen in and believe what your mind tells you. I find it hard to create that balance between keeping myself accountable and being too hard on myself. Slowly though I’m learning some tricks, tricks I will definitely be dropping here under different topics.
I keep reminding myself that “I am the girl for the job” so even on days that feel like this might not really ever get better, I keep moving forward. Consistency is everything, I remind myself. I pat myself on the back, I tell myself I’m doing great. And sometimes, on days like today, all the pats pay off, things seem to be finally working out. I was very proud of myself earlier today when I thought, “good times don’t last”, then quickly dismissed it with “I’ll enjoy this one before it ends then” smiled and kept doing what I was doing.
My sister, she’s really cool! Always got my back. Always reminding me that I am the girl for the job. I like her encouraging words, they warm my heart. I hope my words warm yours too. You should know they are always straight from my heart. I like to say I love humans. Though sometimes they hurt me or ain’t the best, when they are being warmly human, they spread the best vibes. That’s my greatest intention with the blog. To be a place you come to feel encouraged and loved. I keep referring to “you are the girl for the job” as it is my current read, written by Jess Connolly. I would highly recommend it for all my Christian sisters. She has a way of calling you to be better than you ever thought you were. I like her, she is also really human with the way she writes. When I grow up, I want to be just like her. 🙂
Today, I just wanted to remind you of this place that you may have started to call home then it grew cold. I’d like to reassure you that I’m back and with a bang. In the past few months I have learnt a thing or two and I am excited to share with you. We left things hanging with the Why Meditate? post. You could always swing by and read it through as we wait to meet again next week when I will post the sequel “How to create your own meditation habits.” I missed you guys a lot and I hope you did too. Drop a comment, tell me something; your expectations, anything you have adopted from previous posts.. tell me even how you feel. Life is about to be even more colorful coz Marisela is back!! 😉
