Eye of the Tiger: 6 months to shift update



It has been a month since I made the commitment to spend the next 6 months in the unknown. Last month was not about choosing change, but determining the destination point.  Again, not a place or specific change but how the re-defined me will look, think and act in whatever circumstances that arise.  I needed to know how  “that” would look in order to chart a course to navigate towards the destination.

Choosing the destination.
Around and around my mind has gone. Every possible emotion - all sorts of pain have come and gone in waves and I have spent a LOT of time holed up in the air conditioning with my trusty sidekick, Tucker and my talking bird, Buddy.  Now, one month later, I am bobbing to the surface, half drowned with the grief of letting go, but intact and whole. I have defined the destination. I can see myself, happy and confident, waving at myself at the far side of the ocean. All I have to do is get in the boat and start rowing.

Haha! I don’t want a stinking rowboat! I want an ocean liner! Old me would have rowed.  New me chooses the mother of all ocean liners :)  Ship ahoy!
