When something shakes you to the core, can it be the very thing that moves you forward?

The gift of the unexpected and unpreferred.

A jarring event that brings everything to a halt can also be an opportunity for a true re-evaluation.

Your roots up, ends frayed, ragged edges exposed might be a moment to choose anew.

Of course, alongside not bypassing the emotion of the loss, setback, or demarcation from what was… to what is now.

If you’re present with the waves of feeling, you can get a fresh take on things from this unique perspective. Even if it’s sideways or underneath with these new set of eyes.

And perhaps, with Grace, choose a new timeline, if you’re up for it.

Instead of becoming paralyzed and folding into yourself. The “from left field” experience can be an expander, if you wanted it to.

Because that’s what we’re doing here, yes?
Adventuring. Creating. Attempting to live life to the fullest.

And when we’re destabilized, it can shake things up. What might normally feel too complicated to extract from.

Because the “worst” and most unexpected has already occurred. There’s sometimes a newfound feeling of freedom after a “worse-case scenario.”

How much do I love how I earn a living?

Does the area I live in feed me and provide rich soil for my roots?

Is my relationship sustaining us and am I nourishing myself within it?

I truly believe interruptions of flow can be windows of opportunity if we let them, carrying us beyond the disappointment, or our attachment to set outcomes, even past the resentment we have for the unfavorable circumstance.

And what’s more… what if it’s the very glitch in the Matrix we needed to reboot ourselves, to reprogram, level-up and show up as another avatar in our game of life?

What if it’s exactly what you’ve been waiting for to timeline shift?

We are creatures of comfort and lovers of predictability after all, and it can take quite a bit for us to reimagine an entirely other path, even if it’s just a pivot.

Can you welcome it?

Allowing whatever seeming misfortune to gently show you a new course to chart ahead.
