We’re a month into spring, and I’m guessing, like me, you’ve been appreciating the various flowers that have bloomed in the past few weeks.

Those buds you were watching, now sway in the breeze, in full beautiful glory.

Intoxicating floral aromas now permeate the air.

Everywhere you look, things are finally lush, and green again.

Springtime is the season when things undoubtedly feel more hopeful.

Yet, perhaps the perennials didn’t come up this year.

Which is strange.

Maybe the early spring frost wiped out the flower buds on the cherry tree.

Ooof, what a shame!

You know what I’m referring to, right ?

Consider for a moment how these awarenesses might parallel what’s taking place within your own life…

You’ve noticed the “seeds” you spent this past year planting still have not sprouted.

You wait with a watchful eye for any signs of life, yet none are visible.

OR

You had something in your life you relied on, year after year, except this year it’s no longer present.

OR

You poured your heart and soul into a fresh start, and now you feel stalled.

Here’s the thing:

When talking about gardens, we easily acknowledge what’s not present, and then, almost immediately, appreciate what is.

We leave hope for those flowers that haven’t popped up yet.

And we simultaneously CHOOSE to turn our focus toward what’s in bloom.

We are far more accepting of WHAT IS.

Would you like to take that same approach personally?

What is going RIGHT for you that is also going unnoticed?

What are the unexpected pops of color in your life at this moment?

What will transpire today, leaving just a hint of a smile across your face?

Whatever it is, my challenge is to slow down enough to notice, and appreciate.

For these once were seeds that you watered and tended to, hoping they would sprout. And now,

They’re filling out your world!

So don’t lose hope.

Trust that the seeds you’ve been sewing are taking root.

Challenge yourself to release attachment to the timing in order to enjoy what’s in bloom today.

Even if it’s not what you expected.

Especially, if it’s not!

Until next time ~

Here’s to living empowered

Cheers! Stephanie

_{A note from Stephanie : For those who have been following a while, you may notice that I’ve shifted away from Create Your Future and moved into Living Empowered. It’s what’s resonating with me in my life now, and hopefully, it resonates with you too. I’ve found writing and sharing from what is present feels much more authentic than holding on to an idea that was working before, but no longer feels resonant.}
