March signifies the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere. Here in South Carolina, the daffodils have bloomed for weeks, and we eagerly await the tulips. The redbuds are in full bloom, and the azaleas are promising beautiful arrays of color. There are signs of new growth and new life everywhere. I know from my years in Connecticut that winter is leaving reluctantly. The landscape has a drab look about it. There may still be snow on the ground Folks are ready for it to be over. In the deep south, spring is ready to make way for summer.
Life is much the same. Some people are beginning to see small changes in their circumstances or situations; others are standing on the sidelines waiting for things to change, while others have experienced wonderful things and are already moving on to the next great thing.
For Linda and me, this March represents the beginning of the next phase of our lives. We bought a house on a lake and moved into it in November 2018. We have spent countless hours and much treasure creating our “dream home.” We even bought a boat so that we could enjoy magnificent Lake Hartwell. We would often sit and look out at our gardens, the stand of majestic oaks in the middle of the property, and our dock with the boat in it and say, wow, what an amazing life we have. We are so happy and grateful to have found this place and created our little oasis of serenity and love.
The next phase I referred to earlier includes selling everything and buying a new “dream house.” It’s not that we don’t love what we’ve created; it’s that our longing to be nearer our church, nearer to the cultural events we love attending, creating a circle of like-minded people, and traveling is so intense that we can’t ignore it. So now, we are taking the steps we can take from where we are, with what we have, to step into our new vision of a life we love.
How about you? As spring’s new growths and life manifest around you, are you longing for something more for your life or discontent with the direction your life has taken up until now? Do you have a vision of something bigger and better? Are you ready to nurture it just as you would the tender new shoots in your garden and feel you could use some help in determining the correct nutrients, water, and light to use so that they thrive? Would you love a complimentary discovery discussion to learn how to proceed? I would love to gift you one. You can schedule one by going to my website; https://www.transformationalwellnessservices.com, and on the homepage, under the heading contact; select schedule a session with Rich. The system will add the date and time you choose to my calendar, and I will receive a confirmation email so that I can contact you to initiate the process.
I have a wonderful life, and it all began when I paid attention to my longings and discontent and found a mentor/teacher/coach to walk my journey with me. If you would love to learn more, grab a spot now because there is no better time.
