I have been feeling lately that time is ticking by way too fast for my liking. My days are pretty routine. Weekday alarm at 6 AM, get the kids up and off to school, work 8 hours (sometimes up to 12 hours!) at my day job, cook, eat, sleep…. repeat, Repeat, REPEAT! Honestly, I am having a “Calgon” moment just reading this.
Somedays I feel overwhelmed by the demands of my life. Don’t get me wrong… I am very grateful for everything I have, especially my kids, my health and my employment. There is however this nagging feeling of wanting to accomplish something else in my life before I die and fear that time is running out. (Sorry, not trying to be morbid, just being honest for someone over 50!)
On a side note, I was always drawn to everything New Age. As a teenager I had dream books, loved learning about Astrology, alternative medicine, and was fascinated by the Psychic Expo. As some can relate, this attraction was frowned upon and as a result I kept this part of myself dormant for years out of fear of being judged or disapproved of.
Fast forward to present day. The whole reason I started Lit With Joy in the first place was to reach out to others like me! Kindred spirits looking to shine their light into the world and hopefully leave it sweeter, kinder, and gentler than before. The world needs to see YOU, your genuine magically gifted self! Your creativity, your talents, your ideas, everything that makes you sparkle.
What are your gifts? What are you good at? What makes you happy? What excites you? What inspires you? Who do you want to become? How will go about achieving your desires? When can you start?
TODAY!
The point is folks… I realized that if I really want to make a difference, again… if I really want to, I need to take action. Agreed? Not next month, not next week, not tomorrow… NOW! And guess what? I have given myself permission to do so! The approval stamp to follow my heart and my dreams without fear. Ah this already feels so refreshing! Are you ready to join me?
Let’s have some fun!
Lots of love, Joyce 🔥
