Blast From the Past
I have had many dear friends in my life. As I get older, I get further and further away from these wonderful souls who have such a great role in multiple dynamics in my world. People change. Their lives shift. As we meet new people and have new experiences, we shift as people. As we have families of our own and move to different parts of the world, our priorities shift. As we travel to new countries and have new cultural experiences, our outlooks shift. As we lose friends and family members to sickness, accidents and death, our appreciation for life shift. The people we met 10 years ago are now completely different from the people we are now.
Sometimes I will be rummaging through a box or drawer and run across something very old that holds a dear memory of a person and/or an experience and have such deep flashbacks of an emotion. This happened today. I was looking for a pen in my nightstand and came across this cowgirl boot from an old dear friends work trip. This person will always remain one of the top friendships/connections I have ever had. We haven’t spoken in years but I held my boot in my hand and said a Universal wish of love/light to this person. This person shifted my entire life by having me read a book on Gratitude and a happy brain. My entire world was improved by this thought process. I was able to dig deep into who I am as a person, how the world sees me, how the world could perceive me, how my light is bright and how to shine my light to help guide others. My entire future was positively shaped because of this person and I am forever grateful.
Time, marriage, kids, moving states, family sickness, family deaths, childhood trauma, an inability of full emotional expression, surgery, Covid, hard times, job loss, relationships and a multitude of other factors play a role in the loss of contact. The loss of contact does not mean I don’t forever value the connection we had and how my life was positively shaped due to our meeting. Seeing this boot reminds me of how special my light is and to share with others the important of their light💕 Our journeys are full with purpose, meaning and possibilities.
