Horizon

We can’t predict our futures, it is a life mystery. We can go in a certain direction, but outcomes are different for everyone. I have always been conscious of the future, more than some. Unknowns get to you and I think that’s why a like to dabble in the past. Looking at genealogy and history brings things full circle. Your future is deep rooted in your past. Repeating patterns, learning curves, anxiety, cause and effect mar or provide clarity going forward. Possible outcomes for the future is not something you should dwell on, life is unpredictable. Goals are always good, but live in the moment.

What is on your horizon? To be and let be is a laid back approach we should all adopt. I remember learning about CPR and the ABC of life saving, so first step is the airway and breathing, in my mind just keep breathing. When you have a baby, breath through the pain, lack of oxygen equals more pain. When dealing with stress, deep breathe. Panic attack, in through the nose, out through the mouth, slow. Breathing is a major coping mechanism. You can survive the bleeding if you are still breathing.

Remove obstacles and change your challenges to opportunities. Live today, don’t waste energy on worrying about tomorrow. Life is a symphony, keep it as a melody, when the symbols get too loud, know that it will pass. Enjoy the music in your story, get excited at the highs and lows. If it all becomes too much, just breathe!
