Expressing who you are is an endless realm of possibility.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You are more than words in a box, a definition or a statement.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You are infinitely more than you can even imagine.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

There are places we live and ones we visit, some for a lifetime, others a fleeting moment. There are people who are happy in one place, others more nomadic wanderers from place to place. Both are valid ways.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For me there is an energy to a place. It is palpable but not describable. You arrive, sense and know your relationship.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In our lifetime the choice of where we live is sometimes within our control and other times not. As a child we go where our family goes. As an adult it depends on the choices you make and lifestyle preferences.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I counted today the number of places I have lived - 22 so far. Some barely a month or a few months, others many years. The measure is whether the new address counted. I started out in one country, went to another, and returned to the country from which I started.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This moving about the place is significant. On a physical level there is the balancing act between newness and adventure with the reality of packing up and shifting. Over the years the belongings increased - a sign that I carried with me more than just my bed. Possessions and things are less important now I have passed my peak of attachment.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
On an energetic level each move coincided with a shift in me and my life. No matter the impetus, moving home shakes things up, gets me out of my comfort zone. Instead of carrying internal baggage, I let go of the old and welcome the new.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Moving home is an external and internal journey. Home for me then is not the address. It is my holding place and sanctuary. So shifting of the sanctuary stirs up a bit. Over the years the main learning is that how I approach moving with my intention and attitude makes the difference.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There is something else that stands out. Whilst I can remember fondly the aspects of each 'place' only one place so far feels like a 'soul home'. It is a special place where I feel connected to the Earth, Spirit, life and me. I feel another beckoning and await it's discovery.

Your voice is your power.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What you say matters as much as what you don't say.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Knowing the difference is one path to wisdom.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I was in a store the other day that had this sign on the wall. It made me pause. Isn't this really a metaphor navigation tool for life? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It could be a guide for knowing ourselves. The clearer we are the easier it is to answer these prompts. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
'Love it' is an affirmation of clarity and self awareness. It also brings in commitment, passion and a whole hearted approach to our choices. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
'Not for me' is not a rejection nor slight on another who might 'love it'. It is simply a difference at a point in time or longer of preference. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
'Maybe' leaves us open for time to explore and discover what is not clear upon first consideration. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In our world of algorithms predicting and curating our lives these three choices are less in our control. Instead of letting others decide for you regain your authority on yourself. Use the maybe path to find new 'love it's' and to let go of the 'not for me's'. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The more we let others decide what we do or don't love, the more we limit our opportunities for expanding our awareness, understanding and acceptance of others. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I am taking this sign and adding a twist. Let's approach our day with the love it, not for me or maybe approach. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Keep it simple and explore some of the questions below. Practice sorting your experiences and notice where you end up. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Are you a yes person or always no? What is your ratio?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What does 'love it' mean for you?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When you say 'not for me' do you do so without judging those who love it?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Is 'maybe' a real path of open discovery or one of avoidance of commitment? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Wishing you rich insights, lots of aha moments and greater clarity.

Just a note to myself I found when cleaning up. Why share? Well I took a little break from posts to take stock - something I recommend we all do. It is easy to get caught up in the doing and not remember the why. I stopped to remember and reconnect to the why. If you want to know my why feel free to ask. I won't post it here.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For years and even as recently as today I worked with these two questions:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Why do I do what I do?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Who am I being through what I do?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The intent behind these questions is to gain insight into a sense of 'authentic purpose' both in the big picture and the micro details of life.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The questions served me well but have expanded to include:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How am I being of service?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Service for me has so many connotations. In the beginning of working with this question I thought the answer was simply about the work I do, the job description and the title. If you could put it on a resume and there were clients involved it must be service. Partly a byproduct of working in service roles / industries my whole career.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then the word took on a deeper meaning. Through the journey of self development, service became more of a spiritual word for me. It became one that signified a universal purpose of existence. It became one I associated with what is bigger than me that I can not explain nor prove, just trust and experience. This one word is powerful enough to shape and reframe every action. The word requires self awareness yet asks for selflessness. The word invites choice in every moment.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For me at this point in the journey service ties much together. Service links the me with the we. It is not just about the you. For if the me is not right then the we will not work. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Service starts with me but is about you.
