A quick story about a fish... (stay with me)
|
If you’ve watched Disneys “Soul”, you know the part of the movie where Joe realizes he doesn't feel any different after having his "big moment" he's been waiting for. It goes a little something like this: I heard this story about a fish. He swims up to an older fish and says, "I’m trying to find this thing they call the ocean." "The ocean?" says the older fish. "That’s what you’re in right now." "This?" says the younger fish. "This is water. What I want is the ocean." We often miss the very thing we’re searching for because it doesn’t look like we imagined. Sometimes we’re so conditioned to strive, to chase, to want more, that we can’t recognize when we’re already inside the thing we thought we had to go find. It’s a call to presence, to gratitude, and to reframing your lens. Because maybe you’re not lost. Maybe you’re not behind. Maybe you’re just a fish, already in the ocean... & you haven’t realized it yet. 🐟 P.S: PLEASE GO WATCH THAT MOVIE IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY! P.P.S: If you're local to CT, click here to join us for an upcoming gathering this June! See you next Tuesday! X, |

Maybe they were, until somewhere along the way they became a job description, and you don't remember signing the contract.‼️ Especially if you're the one everyone leans on. Reader, you're the one who remembers everyone's birthday and shows up early and stays late. The one people call when their life is falling apart, but somehow never the...
(Found on Pinterest, Artist Unknown) Good morning Reader, There's a part of you that's been trying to get your attention for years. 👀 You haven't been ignoring her on purpose...I know. 🫶 You've just been busy. You've had things to do, people to take care of, jobs to keep, fires to put out. So when she showed up — through the headache that wouldn't quit, the tension you couldn't explain, the fatigue that no amount of sleep seemed to fix — you took note. Maybe you took a pill or something for...
