March 2025 Week 1

It’s March, can you believe it?? Day light savings is this weekend and we are quickly moving out of winter. Last month I was talking to a Calm Crew member and at the end of our correspondence she sent - I guess we just enjoy and embrace. Thank you Lorraine!!! I have swapped that around and made it the March intention - Embrace and Enjoy - because I feel like we first have to embrace what is in front of us and then be all in and CHOOSE to enjoy.

This reading from Melody Beattie was extremely helpful for me to read this week:
“One Step at a Time -
One step at a time. That's all you can take. That's all you have to take, Yes, you have visions you've created of where you want to go.
But you don't get there in one leap. You get there one step at a time.
That's how you receive your guidance. That's how you respond to the guidance you've received.
Let your faith be strong. Your faith will keep you going through those moments in between steps. When your faith is strong, you don't look in fear at the journey ahead, wondering if you will get all the guidance you need, or if you will get to where you're going. You know you will, so you take the simple steps, one at a time, that lie ahead. You take them in joy, because you know you're being guided.
You have faith that the simple steps you are led to do will take you to your destination.

One step at a time. That's how you will get where you are going. You are being led, each step of the way.

This has become quite comical these past 2 weeks with my husband and I’s trip across the country……"Yes, you have visions you've created of where you want to go.” - Yup we had visions, we had a loose plan and not much has gone according to plan haha.

This is helpful…..“You have faith that the simple steps you are led to do will take you to your destination.” And this…
“When your faith is strong, you don't look in fear at the journey ahead.”

The beauty of this journey is we have continued to take steps and journeys forward (and west) each day with a prayer and trust and in a way we had not drawn up, it is all working out and we are embracing and enjoying all our detours along the way! And crazy as it sounds, our timing is still on track!

Remember our intention months ago - Obstacles are detours in the right direction - I am going to trust we are on the right path and enjoy this journey! Where are you right now in life? Is there anything you can embrace and enjoy more fully? I heard someone repeat a quote from an older woman at the end of her life. He asked, do you have anything you wish you did differently? She said yes: “I had a wonderful life - I wish I enjoyed it more."

Let’s embrace and enjoy this month.

“Everything ends up working out. Most often, it ends up even better than you could’ve imagined. Remember this when you’re in a hard place or feel like you’re being challenged most. Have trust in, and BELIEVE in where you’re headed.”
