For a while I’ve been feeling really good about my divorce. I was doing an acceptance practice and felt… accepting. I was enjoying all the new possibility and freedom that I have in my life. I was looking forward to my future. I’m turning 50 in May and was just feeling so excited about this new chapter in my life.

Then that all crashed. I started feeling the HUGENESS of the loss of the emotional and financial support and stability I received in my marriage and freaking out about it. Every month I’ve had BIG unexpected expenses. And my mortgage and condo fees have increased dramatically, along with the rest of the cost of living. So, in this economy, it feels harder than ever to calm that anxiety.

There are moments when it’s SO calm though. When I feel SO sure. And then there are moments when I just want to cry.

I’m so lucky that I know so much about how dreams work. I have so many examples in my mind, of all the people I have worked with, and everything they have overcome.

I have so many tools for SHOWING UP NO MATTER HOW I FEEL AND WHAT IS HAPPENING.

I have this enormous body of evidence that says: just keep showing up.

Show up anxious. Show up scared.

JUST SHOW UP.
