When we hide from the life we are destined to live, we hide in many places.
I dedicated a whole book to putting together a map to get us out of the Waiting Room.
It is hard work. But it is worth it.
Yesterday I shared with you a pic of my day to day life.
Building this life took me 5 years of steps out of this particular waiting room.
I share these glimpses to inspire you. To help you navigate. To believe.
Here is a short passage from my book, Invisible Loss.
“All these hiding places come together to make one big hiding space that you end up occupying.
I have named that space the Waiting Room.
You go there to feel safe, protected from what you can’t see or understand.
When you are there, your life stops, or even worse, the life you could have had is no longer available to you.
You get robbed from your right to have the life you were born to have.
Your destiny can’t find you inside the Waiting Room. You become as invisible as your many unexpected heartbreaks. You become grief itself.
That is when your destiny leaves and a new kind of destiny shows up.
This one was not born the day you were born; it came with the Waiting Room you are renting right now. It comes for free.
But the cost is astronomical.
By now, another voice is joining your reading of this book. Your brain’s fear center is being triggered. I call that voice the Survivor Self.
This is the part that tries hard to convince you that you don’t need to unbury your invisible losses, and you certainly don’t need to change anything.
It is now listing all the reasons why your life is the way it is, and why you cannot do anything about it. It will try to close this book, now.”
I hope that if you made it to here you are in self reflection mode. You are thinking about changing your life.
And remember you don’t have to think about all the steps. Just the first one.
If you have the book and haven’t read it open it today. Read a page. That’s all it takes to start.
With love 💕
