Month of May: Life's Interruptions

Hello everyone! I know it's been forever since I've sat down to write. Life has been interesting and shifting constantly, so now I can focus my direction back on writing. So, before I dive in, here is my lovely disclaimer: I am not an expert on you; that is your job! I am here to share my experiences in hopes of helping anyone who may need it. If not, pass this on to someone who may need it. In reality, we are all walking each other home, but you get to decide what type of walk that would be. So, with that being said, I can now dive in like I want to. I am always reminded of the poem by Emily Dickerson," My Life Closed Twice Before It Opened". It has always resonated with me in different areas of my life and reminds me that life can come at you fast, and those doors once opened are now closed, but it does not mean other avenues won't open up to you. I am a firm believer that to have what you want in life, you must make space for it. Sometimes it is easier said than done, and some will automatically assume from the jump that it's people who need to go. It depends on the individual and what they have going on in their life. Sometimes, it can be the surroundings you often go to and even a certain mindset. At the end of the day, you must do what is best for you, regardless of what others may think.

Recently, I just celebrated my birthday, and it was in Salem, MA, of all places :-)! Since I decided to stay stateside and not go out of the country, it allowed me to check something off my bucket list ( me pictured at the Bewitched statue <3)

To be honest, being in Salem felt like I had come home, and I was embraced by everyone I encountered, and the energy was amazing and life-changing. Being there also showed me what things I need to work on personally. Will I go back to visit again? Absolutely, and probably for Halloween. So once I returned from Salem, I felt the overwhelming feeling to go on hiatus from social media to recollect myself and fully take in the next Chapter of my life, turning 43. 2025 is the year of 9, my life path number is 8, and my age equals 7. Taking into account that angel number 9 means " signifies completion, closure, and spiritual enlightenment. It often appears as a sign of profound spiritual awakening, encouraging you to let go of limiting beliefs and embrace a more expansive worldview. The number 9 also represents humanitarianism, compassion, and universal love, urging you to serve others and make a positive impact on the world." Life path number 8 means " a strong connection to material success, ambition, and leadership. It represents a focus on financial security, personal goals, and the development of one's power. Life Path 8 individuals are often driven and want to develop a strong relationship with power, including both internal and external power." Last but not least, the angel number 7 means " a period of spiritual awakening, intuition, and divine guidance. It's often seen as a sign that you are on the right path, that you are becoming more spiritually aware, and that your guardian angels are guiding you. The number 7 is also associated with luck, new beginnings, and a potential for positive change." So the signs are clear for me, and I am so grateful.

There comes a time in everyone's evolution when life's interruption comes in it is providing a pause so you can reflect on what needs to be done versus what you want to get done. The most important thing is to continue to face yourself, work on the things that require change, hold yourself accountable, and learn that your greatest strength is your ability to be vulnerable with yourself. You cannot expect yourself and anything around you to shift higher unless you address the bullshit and gray areas in your life. So those interruptions are a blessing and should always be considered as such. If you pray for change and growth, be prepared to lose some connections. And have faith, knowing whatever had to go is making room for the new to come in. God does not need permission to make the changes in your life. It is your job to allow the process to happen and have faith. God did not bring you this far to leave you now.

Remember to be good to yourself and to others, and #Livelifepositive
