The Love Rant

It’s not Valentines Day or Sweetest Day, however love is on my mind.

Why?

Because I just got married, like yesterday.

And while I am very much the romantic, swooning, wear my heart on my sleeve kind of gal, I enjoy love in all forms, not just the romantic kind.

I have said this before and I am going to say it again so bear with me while I go on a little love rant.

I have lived the life of just getting by in my work.  Doing a good job, but not really loving what I do.  While it was manageable for several years, I knew there was something bigger and more soul-satisfying out there for me.  When I found coaching, I knew.  Now that I am living my dream, doing work I absolutely freakin’ LOVE, I can’t imagine doing anything else.  Life is amazing. Truly.

I have also lived the life of doing things that others expect of me.  Fitting into a mold, life, and expectation of the world and not allowing myself to take care of my own needs and do more things I love.  Simple things like reading, writing, and spending time in the sun.  Things like taking vacations, going to yoga, or taking a nap when I feel like it.  Now that I am giving myself permission to do more of what I LOVE, life is a lot better.  I’m healthier, happier, and find myself enjoying each moment far more than I have in the past.

The next thing on my love list is kind of a big one.  I have lived the life of judgement.  Judgement of others (which I am certainly not proud of).  Jealousy for what I felt I was missing in my life and a general lack of love for others.  Now don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t a mean person per se, and I didn’t feel this way about all people, but what I realized was my outward judgement for others was really an inward judgement of myself.  I wanted a life that I felt I didn’t have and didn’t have the ability to create for myself.  All that has changed.  I have realized that not only are we all connected, but that love is the most important thing that connects us all.  Instead of comparing where I am and judging myself for not being as far as someone else, I try to remember we are all on our own journey and in celebrating the success of another, I am able to see them as an example of where I can be.

So what is this little love rant all about?  It’s about infusing your life, every part of your life with a little bit more love.  Everything from showing yourself some extra love and care to doing kind things for others.  Allow your soul to sing by doing more of what you love.  Share your gifts with the world.  Smile at strangers and make their day.  Love yourself and each other and by golly if you are spending 40+ hours a week struggling through a job that ‘just isn’t that bad’, take some time to explore what you truly want to do.  Now is the time to do it!

I’ve said it before and this isn’t likely to be the last time (in case you were wondering).  You deserve to do what you love, to have more fun, and live a joyful, amazing, and abundant life.  You don’t have to only pick one thing to make you happy and let the rest go.  YOU have the ability to create an amazing life and but you have to first make the decision to do so.  So what are you waiting for?
