We’ve all heard the saying that: sometimes when you stop looking for something, that’s when it appears. I think this same rule can be applied to this particular moment in my life. About 4 months ago I was feeling really down about my job that I’d been with for twelve years. I was constantly feeling unappreciated and unheard. Somedays I even felt disrespected. On one of those depressing days, I remember just heading to Starbucks for a pick me up during my break. I called my husband (as I usually do during my break), and I was so upset and I started venting to him and I remember telling him I cant do this anymore. His reply as “Do what you have to do”.
I took this to heart because I realize right then and there that what I needed was peace. So fast foward to now, and I’ve gotten exactly that. three months of quartantine forced me to take a break, meditate, and focus on me. There were no distractions, no store runs no Starbucks pick me ups and it worked. It’s always that one thing that you dont even know you are desperate for that shows up unexpectantly.
