Focus and Faith

When we are ready, the message or lesson presents itself and we can embrace it.

Waking up this morning was difficult. I had a long, but wonderful weekend and it caught up to me. To bed at 9:30pm and awake at 7:30am. Instead of running, I needed yoga. I needed to breathe deep and be in silence.

When I opened my email I had a new message from Yoga Journal. The subject, Heart Healers. I cannot go on with what it was about but it was comforting and spoke directly to my soul.

I'm continuing to focus now. The marathon is in a few days and I've been great with running and nutrition. I'll put in a few miles this evening, so I'm not worried. Bottom line is this: I'm not going to beat myself up anymore. If I want that peace and positivity I've experienced in the past, I need to appreciate the struggle and doubt I'm in right now. The enlightenment will not be the same, it will be its own strength and understanding. Faith is what I have now. Focus and faith.
