Today is July 1st, a gorgeous summer day and I am reflecting on the past 12 months.
Weird, I know, usually people reflect on the past year at the end of December, preparing for the New Year to come.
Well…last year on July 1st I entered a new stage of my life.
I quit my “9 to 5” office job and it was my first day of “not” working. One year later I am sitting in my spiritual room, which truly reflects who I am and all that I love. Looking at the beautiful view from my window and reflecting with a big smile on how amazing the past year has been. How much I evolved, changed and how much joy entered into my life. My heart is filled with gratitude.
I had been working in one place for 15 long years. It was not always bad but my work was never my passion and I became the worst version of myself. Being stuck in an office without seeing much daylight (ugh!!) without being able to create and be myself, felt miserable. There was nothing holding me there. The thought of leaving was growing in my head for quite some time. The seed was planted when I discovered my love for Animal Communication and other intuitive work. The day came and I knew it was the right time to go.
While I was still working I was taking classes, attending seminars, workshops, spending time reading and developing my psychic skills. I knew this was what I LOVE, and what I ENJOY doing. Each intuitive reading I did sparked so much joy in my heart and I absolutely LOVED the feeling. I knew something had to change. I could not stay in my unfulfilling job anymore. I left.
I continued studying Soul Level Animal Communication and became a certified practitioner for Danielle MacKinnon, and I opened my own business and finally I am doing what I absolutely LOVE. What an amazing feeling it is. I created space for my soul to dwell in, I have time to enjoy the morning beauty of every season, I see each day as a true blessing. I enjoy walks with my dogs, and I am not rushing them or me anymore.
Living in the moment is the most wonderful feeling on Earth, being able to stop and "smell the roses" - the fragrance is breathtaking. My passion and open heart brought also many wonderful people into my life. I treasure all my clients, and their pets I have been connecting with and all my wonderful friends who share the same interest, who are spiritual and passionate about animals as I am. Being in their presence is a true gift.
But mostly I am grateful for my wonderful husband who is my biggest supporter and always encourages me, to be me and allows me to follow my own path. Love you Volker!
I am reminding myself that every experience, encounter and choice seeks to serve us, to teach us and help us grow and I am glad that I took the leap of faith last year. I look forward to new beginnings, new opportunities, new friendships and setting new goals for the year ahead, starting today!
Happy summer to all of you and hope your reflection of past years is as wonderful as mine and if not, please sit in gratitude, forgive, let go, close the book and start a new chapter (New Year).
Much love to you.
Anna
