Choosing Your Life
May 10, 2022
As an amazing Mother’s Day present to myself I went to see the movie, “Everything, Everywhere, All at Once.”
It is a quirky, funny, sci-fi flick about the possibility of living in alternate dimensions based on each decision that we make. That even the smallest decision can change the course of our lives- but that we are living out the consequences of these decisions in alternate dimensions simultaneously.
I love these kinds of thought provoking movies.
What I did not expect was to be faced with my own perceptions of myself as a mother. I didn’t expect to cry, hoping my kids know how much I love them and how I would do anything for them, even when it seems like I am mad or being mean.
What I learned from this movie, which reiterated some messages I have been getting all year in meditation and healing work, is that when we CHOOSE our life, we realize how happy we are.
★ When I CHOOSE to love being a midwife, I love being a midwife, I love every birth and every appointment.
★ When I CHOOSE to love being a mother, I love being a mother; I love every moment I get to spend with my kids.
★ When I CHOOSE to love eating healthy and working out, I love my body and how good it feels and I feel beautiful.
★ When I CHOOSE to love my life, My life is FREAKING AMAZING!
When life feels like a struggle… I hope you can remember that you have chosen this path in one way or another. How can you choose to embrace it?
