I
am beginning to live more and more in the moments of each day and not
worry about what is to come. I also believe that everything truly
does happen for a reason. I would not be where I am today without
going through everything I have gone through. And I love where I am.
I came across this quote recently by Jack Kerouac “Be in love with
your life. Every detail of it.” Those are some big words, but if
you think about it why wouldn't you want to be? Every detail of our
lives teach us something and help us grow.
Now
don't get me wrong, I do have my schedule, lists and goals, however I
also know that each moment is a blessing and one I will never get
back. It's also about being flexible like today for example. I took
the day off work and I was doing some yoga teacher studying at
Starbucks when a friend texts me about going to a yoga class. I
wasn't sure what I was in the mood for, so I suggested a regular
class I go to with one of my favorite teachers. Instead we decided to
try a studio I had only been to a couple times with a teacher I had
never been to before. It turned out to be just what I needed! Very
relaxing, yet still a bit challenging with savasana bliss. Okay that
example may only make sense to a few of you, but I hope you get my
point. :) It reminds me of an intention from lululemon's manifesto
“Do one thing a day that scares you.”
As
most of you know I am taking the next step in my life as it pertains
to my career. I've been at my current job for nine years (just had my
anniversary November 24) and even though it will be very difficult to
leave, I know it is time. The question is do I continue with
marketing, however not at an ad agency, or do I take a different road
with a more yoga-centered focus. Both I enjoy and both I could see
myself doing full-time. I have also had opportunities come up with
both and I know that yoga will always be a part of my life if I'm
teaching one class a week or ten. The next couple months will tell
the tale and whatever decision I make, it will be the
right one right now.
