This is our chance, our time to review our lives to this point and to decide if we want to continue as is or to make changes.
My partner and I opened a Gallery a few months ago. We opened it with the intention of having work/life balance, enjoying our life in the new town whilst making a reasonable income to support us and a part-time employee, and allowing me time for my client work and my partner time to create the handcrafted timber pieces for the Gallery – each of us is passionate about what we do and we received very positive feedback from many visitors to the Gallery.
However recently we reviewed our progress to date and realised that we in fact did not have work/life balance, we weren’t particularly enjoying our life and were feeling pressured to do the things we love to do instead of enjoying our work – my time to concentrate on my work was suffering too – and whilst we love our new town and the community in which we live we found ourselves struggling to have the time to put into our relationships with the people in our neighbourhood and with those closest to us. So following that review we decided to close the Gallery which will happen in the next few days.
And guess what, so many new doors are opening for us since we made the decision to close the Gallery! We will have a choice of outlets for his goods, the support of the business community around us has been wonderful and so as one door closes another opens. We are looking forward to quality time to enjoy working in our passions and to spend with the special people in our lives, including each other.
This post by Jenny Schiltz from her Channelling the Masters Channelling the Masters website is very timely as it helps to explain very clearly and succinctly what many of us are experiencing right now. Are you struggling to stay balanced? Feel like old issues are coming up again? Or do you feel like you need to be of service? Do you need to make changes in your life?
Jenny explains “Emotionally, many are experiencing what feels like a life review. Things are coming up within our memories and even in the physical so that we can reconcile and release the past. It feels very much like we are all making the choice of do I want to continue as I have always done or do I want to release and walk into the new. Some are even finding that people from their past are contacting them again or that another person who holds the same type of energy as a person in the past have come forward. For instance, you may encounter someone who has the energy of a past romantic partner so that you can decide if you want this energy in your life going forward. When you see it this way, the patterning that we hold becomes clearer and it allows us to see how much we have changed in this process.
What I am also seeing is the resurgence of our stuff. Things we thought we had under control. Things we thought had changed or that we had overcome.”
