clearing for change
Just because it's sri spring, doesn't mean I'mspring cleaning. Sheesh. I have been clearing possessions out it seems forever.
Today I got a lot more things out of the flat.
In about a week, I will finish the last step to getting my certification in a health-related field.
Part of me feels like I should be shaking, cuz I've been feeling that way in my muscles, etc. So much anxiety usually comes up to slam me when I take obvious forward steps. I'm not freaking out, though. And though I feel something like weak in the knees only not in my knees. It must be a sign of progress.
I'm allowing myself to feel positive about my future today. I have fought and worked for this. It's ok that I don't have it all figured out. Yes, overall change for me still seems near impossible at times, but I can challenge those feelings more easily now.
I'm scared and it's a positive because it means I'm reaching a milestone. My eyes are wide open. I think my heart and mind are, too.

I am so pleased that you are making progress, taking steps forward. That is great! I understand how scary change can be; I get anxious too. Thank you for your post - it has given me hope.
Sending lots of care your way

Banana,
You have been here for me a lot...thanks! You have been helping me to stay strong. I hope I help you, too.
Jonesy, Thank you. I've been doing soooo much letting go, mostly on a sigh or a deep breath. I tell myself that I've carried so much so long, and that whatever is worked through can leave on a breath. I swear, I can feel it in my brain!

Hey There,
Congrats on soon to be finishing up getting your certificate in the health-related field. I heard a saying once...."courage is feeling the fear and doing it anyway." Its ok to feel fear There. Atleast your not freaking out or allowing it to stop you from moving forward. All the best in moving forward and reaching your goals for today and in the future. You go There. There you go!

Re: clearing for change
Oh my gosh I have not seen you here for a long time there. I admit I have been away more then I would like to be. I will be back a lot more now that I am starting up intense t again. It is good to see that you are looking for the good. It makes sense that you are a bit nervous you are venturing outside your comfort zone. Scary as it may be we need to venture in order to grow. Be proud.

There,
big congrats to you.
I'm also about to finish certification in a health-related field. I can relate to the anxiety and the optimism and hope
You deserve every bit of goodness this brings your way
