soft swings
I had one of those reset moments again yesterday when I feel the need to ground myself. I realized I have been trying to catch up with everything and kept pushing my soul-work until I was all caught up.
When was I ever caught up? Why do I have this expectation that I will one day achieve it?
The thing about balance is that the scale usually swings a little bit. Just a little bit. When it is swinging too far, especially when the base is not sturdy we get this big eyed look 👀 like OMG this is going to tip and fall!
Little swings are fine. They are organic. Easily acceptable. Realistically adaptable to. Kind of fun and romantic sometimes. Fulfills our need for shifts and turns. Because you and I know feeling stuck and stale sucks big time.
So the goal is to keep the swings soft, short, and fun. That's balance. And to keep things flowing smoothly like that requires regular checkups with our hearts, minds, and souls.
It requires us to intentionally plant our feet on the sea floor and stand still when the current is flowing in the speed of 21st century life.
And to support you in setting your feet down with strength and grace, people have created fun tools for you to explore. Only takes a few minutes here and there, but give you the clarity and balance you need to live a life empowered, positive, intentional and, most importantly, a life connected deeply with Allah.
