Life is a journey, isn’t it? Some of us have chosen the road less travelled, others are approaching life like they plunging into oncoming traffic! We desire to live opulently, some may already live this way. For many it’s a longing that seems out of reach and it might feel as if there’s an influx of travellers blocking their way. Along life’s path there’s also interruptions as obstacles are placed along the way, some expected and so many unexpected.
For many right now life’s journey is filled with uphill battles and we are driven by the pursuit of relevance and survival. The virus made life’s journey feel like a train derailed, a car crash, sinking ship, airplane crash and or as if it all came crashing at once. You might feel immobilised, but don’t allow the pandemic to permanently paralyse you. Re-scope, do the repair work in order to survive this pandemic crash. On the road to recovery, we need to navigate through these difficult times, but like many things in life we won’t put it into practice until we understand why it’s important.
It is important to embark on a journey of personal well-being which is crucial for your psychological and personal journey. Use healing-informed tools, increase access to self-care and practice mindfulness. Let’s open our eyes of understanding in a fresh way which can provide a deeper dimension to your journey.
The Ox year of 2021 is under the influence of the metal element. This year predicts hard work, positivity and honesty. Don’t allow anxiety or negative thinking to affect you. Let’s strive to travel in grandeur as we journey ahead.
Allow me to share this poem describing life’s journey:
Life is a Journey
Along the way
It’s sunny, it rains
It even storms
Journey all the way
Along the way
You’re enjoying the ride
And you shout out, wow!
You’re happy all the way
Along the way
You feel this can’t be
As you surrounded by dismay
Journey any way
Along the way
You approach the ordinary things
And find it not so ordinary
When it’s taken away!
Along the way
You learn or choose not to
You live to experience
It’s your life anyway

What a great ride this is, especially when we focus less on the destination and more on each moment of the voyage! And if we are lucky, we find great companions on each segment of the trip. Be well.

The life
is in the here and now
not yesterday
not the next morning
right where we are
where I just
am only for myself
the simple
is the hardest part
in a human life

Thank you for your very positive message.
I was thinking to myself recently and I was saying to my husband “you see we are solid, this pandemic story does not shake our mind, we have the chance to cope and keep a good inner balance.”
Business is calmer, but that’s okay.
You have to wait for it to pass, and be content to be satisfied and cherish your balance.
Around me, I count four couples of friends who have separated since the covid …
My father sank into a huge depression, with several visits to a psychiatric clinic …
Lots of mental disorders, a lot of fear for the future.
While as you say this trip certainly involves some disruptions, but we know that there is sometimes turbulence.
Life is “impermanence” and we forget it too often. In French we say “life is not a long quiet river” no offense to the covid, which has just invited and that we will end up dominating.
Have a good day

I’m happy to be able to read and write blogs that helps with the positivity of mind. I’m sorry to hear about your father’s mental health, I wish him all the best on his journey ahead and may he find himself surrounded by the love and support of family and friends. All the best to you in helping him on this journey. Take care and lots of well wishes coming your way💕🌸
