During my floats, I often ‘get’ insights come through. During my float yesterday, I felt a letter writing itself to me…from my future self. I know it sounds weird, but it was very nurturing and I felt a deep sense of heartfulness and I felt compelled to share it with you.
“My dearest one,
Live life. Truly, LIVE it.
Do you know what ‘living life’ really means?
It means to wake up each day and RELISH in GRATITUDE that you are here right now. You were MEANT to be here right now, so LIVE each day KNOWING that right down to your core. You have a purpose and each single day that you are blessed with a heartbeat and breath in your lungs, it’s up to you to fulfill that purpose.
If you don’t know what your purpose is, that’s OK…that’s part of the journey. Start by asking 2 simple, yet powerful questions: “What am I passionate about? and “How can I serve?” Your purpose is the interjection between these two answers.
Love each day.
To love each day means to see the wonder in each and every extraordinary, ordinary moment…
Something as ordinary as a beautiful sunset, or a smile on a loved ones face. Laughter, spending time with those you care about and that care about you. Even the relentless tasks, such as laundry or washing dishes, have beauty within them. Look for the extraordinary in the ordinary and you will live in JOY.
To truly Live means to know that it’s not just about the things you acquire, the money you have or the credentials you earn. None of that matters if you don’t leave behind a legacy. What matters is that you believed in something and CREATED something WORTHWHILE out of that. Things, money and credentials are just tools. Don’t get attached to them, don’t create your identity around them, but find ways to USE them for a HIGHER purpose. So, what will your legacy be?
It means to say YES more and to say NO more…you’ll know which one is the right choice by the way it feels in your gut. Always listen to your gut.
It means to choose the path less travelled. To choose the path that your HEART and SOUL are beckoning you to take…not your fears and doubts.
It means to KNOW you are worth it. Every damned time.
It means to look at yourself in the mirror and speak LOVING words….only and always.
It means to fill your body, mind and soul with so much joy, love and light that on the rough, dark days you know that this too shall pass and you will ride it out with STRENGTH and RESILIENCE.
It means that if you are faced with the option of doing something that will help you GROW and EVOLVE…DO IT!
If you are faced with the option to choose something or someone that makes you healthier…SAY YES! It’s worth every dollar and moment of your time. Because INVESTING in your health and wellbeing TODAY, is the only way to prevent spending time and money on your disease tomorrow. Remember, you are worth it and your older self will thank you for the seeds of YOUTHFULNESS and VITALITY you planted during the stages of life where you took these for granted.
It means to never, ever let a day go by where you don’t LEARN something new…even if it’s just a seemingly small thing. And especially if it is learning something to make yourself the BEST VERSION of you that you can be. You are literally built to acquire INFINITE knowledge! The mind is an amazing place. You never know when knowledge you have can come in handy or when you may be able to HELP or BE OF SERVICE because of it.
Speaking of the mind, get to know yours. It can either be your greatest friend and ally or your fiercest enemy and saboteur.
It means that you BELIEVE that you always have a choice. Always. But that you don’t always get a re-do. So, take the time to CHOOSE wisely.
It means to have an OPEN MIND and an OPEN HEART when it comes to compassion, empathy and patience towards others. But keep things shut against negativity, hatred and toxicity. You’ll know the difference by how it feels in your heart. Always listen to your heart.
It means that you live each day KNOWING that you don’t follow your dreams, chasing after them, feeling as if you may never catch them. NO! YOU CREATE THEM! You BRING them to LIFE. It’s not a matter of IF, but a matter of HOW.
So, GO! Go and BE ALIVE each day. For each day is a beautiful gift you have been given and it’s yours to ENJOY.”
XO,
Kat
