🌙 Midnight Musings on Letting Go...

Oof! I've been meaning to hop on here for awhile and then the day gets away from me. Especially so close to the Holidays, having a business rebrand in process, and a vacation in there somewhere. I'm sure you can all relate. 😉

I had something happen last week though that I've been meaning to share. It offers a great opportunity to introduce you to.... Zen Master Woo! 🧘‍♂️✨ He'll be our resident wisdom-keeper who finds profound lessons in everyday moments. Think Mr. Miyagi meets your quirky best friend. I hope you like him. 🫶

So here goes:

I don't even remember what night it was at this point, but I was sleeping, deep in dreamland, when my hunny moved in a way that startled me awake. At this point, the cat that often sleeps next to me (the one that always has feedback and a Yelp rating to deliver) decided the movement meant it's definitely breakfast time and started her (often annoying) behaviors to encourage that outcome. 🐈

This started the whole process of trying to fall back to sleep.... trying to ignore her persistent requests... and trying desperately to recapture my lost dream. I found myself in an unexpected tug-of-war with letting go. I really wanted to escape back into that dream, yet the more I tried, the more it slipped away.

It hit me then - here's this perfect little lesson about letting go, wrapped up in a middle-of-the-night moment. Sometimes the simplest things become our greatest teachers! The more I chased that dream, desperately trying to remember and return to it, the more frustrated I became. Yet the moment I accepted letting it go, I found a much more valuable lesson about attachment and release.

As ZMW would say: "Ah, young grasshopper, sometimes the best wisdom comes when we stop chasing it. The dream that floats away often leaves a better lesson in its place."😉✨

What unexpected lessons have you discovered lately?

Quick note: I'll be dropping an introduction to Zen Master Woo in the Questions category soon. You can wait or jump right in to ask him questions - he loves to impart wisdom. 😉
