I can’t believe it has been 7 years since my last writing and so much has happened. What I most want to share is I’m learning to follow my gut and that hasn’t always been easy or even tolerated by me.

You know you have this impulse to do something and then talk yourself out of it. Or you want to call someone and decide it’s not a good time. Or you want to want to do something that seems to come out of nowhere and you ignore that thinking “now where did that come from.”

Well I’m learning that “where it comes from” is the bigger part of me, my higher self, the Force, whatever you call something greater than yourself. And I purposefully do not use the word God because it brings up so many contrasting energies for many of us.

So now when I have an impulse I follow it thinking “I’m not quite sure why I’m doing this but I’ll find out sooner or later and probably sooner.

Example: Two nights ago I woke up at six in the morning. Now my normal time is anywhere from 7 to 9 but at 6 a.m. although I was still sleep and had this underlying energy to wake up. So remembering to follow my gut I did wake up.

Every morning I journal. I love to write and for me this is a way to clear my head, connect with my own Inner Being, and feel good to start my day. It was still dark at 6 a.m. and I was sleepy but remembering to follow my gut I got my journal and began writing.

And truly I do not remember the timing or the context of my thoughts but I had the thought of this blog and writing again and when that thought came to me I felt this great energy inside and as I continued to write I decided I wanted to get at the keyboard again.

Also I learned why I’d gotten this idea at 6 a.m. Having an idea in the dark when I’m writing intimately I can allow feelings and a sense of follow through that I may not have when I get busy during the day. Actually I had been thinking about the blog but nothing that said “GO, LET’S DO THIS THING.”

And so here I am, ready and feeling energized by the writing again. So, the next time you have an impulse try following it and see what happens. It could be an affirmation to you that there is more than what we can perceive through our senses that is going on in this world.

Sending Love Out To You
