I had a very efficient day, with booking appointments, washing my car and walking Molly, meeting my friend after her run... and all sorts of things. Then I got caught up with the last of my Netflix series and now I have 8 minutes to post this online before loadshedding kicks in. I was convinced it was the 8pm slot and they'd forgotten but no... so the race for signal is real, lol.
I'm also a bit rattled because my series had one of the ladies get the diagnosis of breast cancer. The hornet's nest of memories opened up a little, which is probably a good time to do so, with all the recent grief in the air. My late sister's diagnosis was a stressful time because she didn't want to discuss it with us. I understand now that she wanted life to stay as 'normal' as possible for the sake of her young son but we were all very concerned. I was in the UK at that specific time for a Tapping Therapy conference and I was so glad to have been there at the time. Hindsight shines light on life's mysteries, the trick is to trust life. Sometimes the trick is to just feel the sticky, painful mess and sit it out whatever the outcome. That, is the challenge though, to keep faith through the dark.
Years ago, I read a book by author, Florence Scovel Shinn and one of her concepts really struck a chord.
"Fear is believing something bad is going to happen.
Faith is believing something good is going to happen..."
From that moment on, I regained my faith and always look for the good. Well, I try...
But it certainly helped me let go of my overwhelming fear of the world and begin to trust the good.
And I've found that there's always,
Always
Good.
