Last Friday I had to make the incredibly difficult decision to end the suffering of my 14-year-old dog and help her cross the rainbow bridge.
The decision itself wasn’t so hard since I knew in my heart it was time, but actually following through with it was a different story.
She’s had health problems for a while and I’ve known this was inevitably coming, but there is no way I ever could have been prepared for the grief this has brought.
I shut down for the weekend and allowed myself to feel everything I needed to feel, and now I’m slowly getting back into my routines and learning to move forward with a Dreamer-sized hole in my heart.
One thing I’ve realized through this time is how grateful I am for the life I’m creating; a life that supports my needs and emotions and has given me the space to grieve the way I needed to.
I can’t help but think how different I would feel right now if I had to rush back to work and pretend like everything was fine when I felt like my heart was being shattered into a million pieces.
One of my “whys” for wanting to own my own business was to be able to be there for my family, friends, and myself in times of need.
I’m so glad I decided to believe it was possible because if I had started this journey just a few weeks later, I’d still be at my job right now grieving the way everyone else told me to and not staying true to what I really need.
Creating a life that supports my soul’s needs and desires, and helping others do the same, is literally what gets me out of bed in the morning. It’s what is keeping me going right now.
Maybe what you want for your life has nothing to do with being able to take time off when you need it, but whatever you want for your life is totally possible.
You get to create a life that supports your soul’s every need and desire.
You get to have the dream career, the successful business, the fulfilling relationship, and/or whatever you feel is missing from your life, and it all starts with believing it’s possible.
I can help you build that belief, align your thoughts with the results you desire, and create the life you were truly meant to live.
