A Journey Inwards!!!

Just yesterday I lost a colleague. Not a close friend but an associate. All of a sudden, out of the blue. No time for meeting, no time for bye byes. And the journey which began in my mind almost from May of this year, opened up again.
May of this year is when again the dark clouds came. The familiar feeling of inadequacy, the grappling tiredness, the dark tunnels, the choking breathing, the acid rising in the stomach, the tiredness in the legs, the blurriness of vision and the ache in the head. The trigger? Was someone not close to me but associated with me saying I am Inadequate. And that tilted the table. With lack of self love I seek self worth from outside and so such words were enough to shatter them away.
My journey inside began. I began following and listening to podcast by Dr Natalie, Oprah Winfrey with Zucov, the Jane Fonda Ted Talk, Lots of Ted Talks about Self Love and got introduced to the wonderful world of Louise Hay. This I believe happened for a reason. A reason which will unravel with time. But the journey of journaling and erasing the baggage of past has began.
What I have Learnt is invaluable.
You are Enough and You are Worth it.
The power of positive affirmations help. Parenting is a big responsibility as the painful memories of the childhood linger on to the kids. so make yourself whole now. It is a tough path but that is the real treasure or property you can give down the generations. The past is beautiful but there are buried inadequacies which manifest in the future. Let that speak to you in a wiser manner.
Like Jane Fonda says: Wiseness is not having experiences but reflecting on experiences. A lot of advantages I have in life is the way I have approached it. With planning, execution. With smiles and laughter. Getting connected to so many people gives me joy of experiences beyond the Normal.
Love , Live and Laugh and dont be answerable to people's queries. Those same people who criticise you are going to celebrate you!
