Sharing what won’t leave me alone until it is expressed.

…But Anyhow

Life happens. People happen. Weather happens. Disappointment, delay, irritation, tiredness, and crap we don’t ask for and often have not deserved, all happen to most of us.

But anyhow… Never dismissing past or present, but deciding they don’t rule the day any longer. Choosing forward – the past can sit in the corner and behave for a change.

Thoughts to pause, choose, and keep walking without handing the day, the mood, the memory, or the mess, the authority to dictate any longer.

But Anyhow Notes

  • The past can sit in the corner and behave for a change.
  • Other people’s choices may change my circumstances. They do not get to change my trajectory.
  • I allow myself grace. I feel it. I do not pretend that difficult times don’t happen. The difference is that I do not hand it dominion.
  • A hard moment may interrupt the plan. It does not get to own the direction.
  • Hurt can be present without being in charge. Hurt does not negate progress.
  • It happened. It mattered. But that is it. Once I process it, it is shelved. Not forgotten, not dismissed, not pretended away. I simply I choose that It does not get the steering wheel.
  • I do not focus on what I cannot change. I build what still matters.
  • When one path is blocked, I look for what still matters.
  • Life can interrupt the moment but it does not have the right to choose the direction.
