Call of Life
Feeling like an escaped bird
Free yet without a plan
Liberation can be tough
Until I touch the ground again
Obligations end and add
Things don’t end, just change
One whose mindset’s based on safety
Finds this reality quite strange
But still, there’s faith, a lot in fact
Conditions need their time
Doing their part to rearrange
And I’m actively doing mine
A new adventure and beginning
Time for new orientation
The future does hold countless options
I wonder which one will be my next station
In Love and Light
Sidenote: At the end of April I had my last day of work at my employed job due to liquidating the company. That change goes along with some pondering about the future and the uplifting feeling of getting the chance to start something completely new.

Something we don’t want to hear when we reached an ending, but absorbing this fact, makes it easier over time to deal with endings and go more flowing into the new chapter.

Erika, your words beautifully “tell” your life. Changes. Endings. New Beginnings. I understand this; I’m sure many of us can relate. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Your transparency and honesty are always so refreshing; you speak right from the heart and soul.
My prayer is that the new beginning is a smooth transition that aligns perfectly with your schedule, gifts, energy, values…etc…
“Welcome to the rest of your life”💞💚💖🙏

Wow! That is a wonderful sentence, Karla! I have no doubt that you understand it better than many of us do and on a very deep level. It is always the easiest to speak from experience. And only in honesty can we convey the message in the depth we want it. Nobody is done with their developments, so we are all works in progress and there is no need to be ashamed by it. I always say: we don’t fail, we experience. And experiences are what makes us shape ourselves on our journeys… but again, whom do I tell this. You know this. Thank you for making the effort and stopping by, Karla, it means a lot to me, my dear friend. Have a beautiful day, dear 💖🤗💖🤗💖

Erika, I always learn from your wisdom, transperancy, and lovely words, my friends. I love that–we don’t fail, we experience. Amen! I always say life is lessons. We just learn! Your journey has shaped up well. It’s those tough experiences that really grow us, don’t they?
I love you, Erika. You’re a light in this world! Have a beautiful day and weekend! 💖💞💚💙🤗🙏

Yes, life is lessons! That sums it all up actually. Maybe understanding and accepting this doesn’t make the lessons less hard but us more cooperative which helps to go through them with a stronger heart.
Thank you for your loving words that always warm my heart. May yours stay warm throughout time, dear Karla. Sending you lots of love, dear friend, and have a wonderful weekend too 💖

There has been a lot of change over this last 12 months, serious change. But strangely it seems to have many answers around it instead of being dumped into something and every man/woman for themselves. Your words are from that flight Erika, daring to see from a much wider, deeper view. Good luck 😀❤️🙏
