We all have crossroads that we need to decide which direction to go.   Sometimes we don’t recognize that we are at a crossroad and make unaware decisions, but that issue will return and we will have to eventually face the road and choose which direction to go.    What was the last crossroad you met and do you feel good about your decision?

Crossroads don’t have to be major.  Rather it’s about choices we make to take care of ourselves.   Maybe a crossroad is something as simple as saying “no” to adding another To Do on your list.   Being at a crossroad is about making choices.  Choices are part of our everyday life.

Obviously, I feel I’m at a major crossroad in my life.    I’ve been there for a while and have been dithering with it and not standing firm with the best choice for me given where I am in my life.   I’m still holding on to the illusion that there is plenty of time.   There still may be plenty of time left in my life, yet I know that I’m in the last quarter of my life, if not sooner.    What do I want the rest of my life to look like.

One doesn’t have to be in later years of one’s life to ask, am I traveling down the right road at this time in my life.   We all know when we have made the right choices because our life feels good.  On the other hand, if we feel disconnected because of choices we made previously, then we need to step up to the plate of our lives and look at where we are and where we want to be.

We are continuously making choices, whether we flounder and drift towards one direction or we consciously make a choice to live a certain life.   Possibilities are abundant which make it harder for us to choose.   I believe given the knowledge we have in the moment of a decision, we know what direction feels the most loving and supportive for us.

Why does choosing seem like a tough decision?   For me, it’s mainly about habit and loss.   Even if the tough decision will ultimately make me feel good, there is always a loss involved for me.  I’m not unique in that change creates ambivalence, loss and uncertainty.  Yet, if I was to make a decision based on what is best for me there isn’t ambivalence.  Rather, I’m deciding to take care of me in a different way, allowing myself to be free of stress.   Stress takes away my health and health is my most precious asset.

I don’t know about you, but whenever I make a right decision, the stress diminishes and I can move forward in my life.

The truth is that there is no actual stress or anxiety in the world; it’s your thoughts that create these false beliefs. You can’t package stress, touch it, or see it. There are only people engaged in stressful thinking. That pesky ego is at work when you’re experiencing stress or anxiety. We speak of stress as if it were present in the world as something that attacks us. But the stress in your body is rarely the result of external forces or entities attacking you; it’s the result of the weakened connection to Source caused by the belief that ego is who you are. You are peace and joy, but you’ve allowed your ego to dominate your life. Here’s a short list of stress-inducing thoughts that originate in your ego self: It’s more important to be right than to be happy; Winning is the only thing so when you lose, you should be stressed; Your reputation is more important that your relationship with your Source; Success is measured in dollars rather than in feeling happy and content; Being superior to others is more important than being kind to others

“Happiness is not the destination.”

Many women slog for a lifetime looking for happiness. They feel guilty  doing things they enjoy. So they take care of their jobs, their families, their children and their pets thinking that the time for happiness will come later. In the end, they discover that it doesn’t.

Believe that you DESERVE happiness right now!

You know those early hours in the morning when the house is quiet and the mist is floating outside the window? THAT is happiness. Remember how it felt to hold your baby for the first time? THAT is happiness. Remember how you felt when you achieved what seemed like an impossible goal? THAT is happiness.

Do not defer your happiness to a later date. Find joy in what you do every day.
