The art of listening

You have probably read about my unhurried journey to healing recently. It is an interesting phase of my life where everything seems to come together slowly. Yes, slowly but beautifully. But in the beginning, this is not how I see it.

A very long time ago, I planned a lot of things and set goals that were not aligned with what my soul has been set to achieve and have. So there were so many detours, ups and downs, and goals that led me to uncertainties and it felt like I am not getting any results.

Where am I heading? In which path? Noises. I envied people around me who seemed to have it all. The direction in life, work, finances etc.

Why? How? There are so many questions and no answers.

It's when my body took charge and then the mind settled that gradually new responses came to light. Not the ones I was hoping for but nevertheless answer.

As my questioning ceased, I then began quieting my mind which is undoubtedly important. It will lead you to what your soul needs. Not what you want. I started to practice gratefulness and let things Be. I did things differently, steadily accepting the changes that are coming my way. I modified my self-talk as well as the words that I feed my brain because eliminating negative thoughts and replacing them with more positive ones is essential.

I can sum up my unhurried journey to healing as what my soul needs so that on the way, I can stop and appreciate the little things that come my way. That I can be grateful to belong in this awesome Universe of ours where we can manifest our GREATNESS.

And as the world around overwhelms us with noises of every kind, take a minute or two to be quiet and tell yourself how GRATEFUL you are for TODAY and while you're at it, tell her/him that she/he is loved.

Have an awesome weekend, beautiful people!

Vacation over

It's kinda hard to get up early again after 2 weeks of staying up late.I've started taking the girls early to bed and of course, they're awake at around 6h30. My husband on the other hand has started working and I think he misses his late mornings. Now it's back to normal sched again. Now, I'm lazily doing my chores and still hoping that my mug of coffee will take effect soon. How do you get back to normal routine after weeks of vacation?

Our mid-week get away in Dijon

Dijon, one of the cities in France, was the destination of our mid-week get away. The city,which is well known for its mustard,is a 3-hour train ride from Genève via Lausanne. As I've mentioned in my previous post ,this was my first time to visit the city. We arrived mid-day to a gloomy surrounding and headed to Quick, sort of Jollibee here. Yet,the real treat was in the old town. Walking on the paved street for me was like being transported to another era. Aside from Musée des Beaux-Arts Dijon, we were able to visit Cathédrale de Saint Bénigne and the Notre Dame de Dijon. However,due to time constraint we were not able to visit other places. Our evening meal was in Le Théâtre des Sens, a small but cozy restaurant and where I've tried escargot. Yes, I did and blame it on the kir! Our dinner was really good,the waiter was very cheery and accomodating. We stayed at the Hotel Des Ducs where we spent the rest of the night watching crime scene investigation. Ah! the joy of havin...

Just like Winnie the Pooh

I want to be like him today. Smiling...even if Erin's sick and hasn't been sleeping well for two nights now. Or despite the fact that my computer is under repair. This post is actually done using my hubby's which he doesn't like coz there were times when his computer got virus because of me. My friends, I will visit you, that I promise so see you around.
