So Where Do You Go?

Today was crammed full of events and errands and just trying to move through the heat and lethargy brought on by the mid-summer slump. I am feeling a bit of an urge to be a little tougher on myself as I feel as though I have been a bit distracted from my goals.

So where do you go in this situation? For me it was a trip to the floor...that's right the floor...with a pillow under my head and my favorite meditation CD in the player. I needed a few minutes to zone out and get re-directed. My goal is still in place and I am moving towards it. A few other things have cropped up in the meantime and though I would initially view them as distraction......with further reflection they are exactly the situations I am drawing into my life for one reason or other.

It is often a little distance and time that reveal exactly why I took a little know side road in this journey into my own fulfillment. I have found that the little roads off the beaten track are often packed with some of the most interesting sights. That is what my life is like these past few weeks. I am taking the scenic journey and not the super highway....in other words it may take me a little longer to get to my destination but I think I will enjoy the ride a bit more.
