Rolling with the Punches

Sometimes the best ways to get through the oddities of life is just to let it roll off of you. You never really know what is going to come unless you are precognitive, so the best option, most times, will be to roll with what is coming.

That isn’t to say it is easy or that the really hard things will be easy or get easier if you roll with what is coming, but understanding your place in your space gives you some great parameters about what can be changed and what can just be endured. Until you don’t want to endure it any longer.

This year is starting out strange. Honestly, if this is the level of oddness we can expect for the rest of it, perhaps it is time to put away the sage to bless the space and pick up a taser and your favorite dessert to protect and reward yourself for making it through the day. I’m already at a disadvantage because when I tried to sage the house the stick kept going out so I already know I’m fighting an uphill battle in what should be my safe space.

So I had to change the way I wanted it to work. Instead of blessing the house and clearing any bad vibes, I’ve just been working to be as positive in the house as possible as well as showing it the respect it deserves by shoring up the cracks and crevices that require more love than others.

Whatever else comes along, I am and have always been a firm believer that what you put out there will come back, so making sure I am putting that same energy into my dwelling, my work and the people I interact with on a regular basis can only work in my favor. It isn’t always immediate, and I’ve faced more than one person in real life who realized I was countering their negative attitude with positive energy and in the case of at least one person, wow did that upset them. Most, however, will match the energy you are modeling.

It isn’t always easy. I spent more time than I initially realized I needed finding my center and giving myself permission to drop the negativity from the job and focus on the warmer weather and the possibilities all my meetings had to offer. Does this fix what is coming from larger world wide stages? Not for me, but if I can insure my center is squared up and I’m putting positivity in my path for the future, all I can do is have quiet hope for the weeks around the corner.

Maybe a little more sage wouldn’t hurt.
