Taking Time.......

Taking time to contemplate my tomorrows is something that I am doing more and more frequently, it appears that my soul is yearning for something to allure it into a more harmonious life.
I am still pondering the decision that I made in regards to building my own home, everyone thinks it was the best thing for me, yet, me, well, I am not so certain that it was!
Firstly I will be going back to the bare streets of a newly designed residential suburb, not really me at all, but to go further out into the country was not an option that I can currently afford, so, I signed on the dotted line and hence I am now thinking that I have backed myself into a corner for another year or so.
I know that it is not forever, and to honest if I felt that I had to live here for the rest of my days I would not be a completely happy person, I feel that there is somewhere calling to me, maybe there will be movement back to the UK perhaps, or to a new place entirely.
Maybe I am not one for settling down in one place for too long, and if I am to settle in one place I feel it needs to be a place that connects with my soul, one where I can feel free and at One with the Earth, a place where the daffodils and cherry trees blossom in spring, where the trees are set alight in the autumn painting the vistas with fiery hues that set my soul on fire, and summertime, where the greenness soothes and revitalizes my inner self and the serenades of bird song lull me into a blissful and relaxing trance.
For now though I am taking the time to wait and to fully adjust to the changes taking place within, so I guess staying put is a good thing, for now anyway and maybe when I return home next year I may find an answer to my inner calling.......................

Nothing has happened as such Jaky, my plan was always to move from Australia one day, it is perhaps taking on the building of a house on my own, quite a big challenge for a person...

Pixie and Spirit are just divine :-)

Sometimes just stayin in one place for a bit until the vision becomes clear, is the best thing to do. Sounds like you just need some plants around you and you'll feel better.

Building a Home is like a metaphor for finding a place that you are comfortable to be your self fully.

The house is a representation for this, but it is not what makes us feel comfortable. It is re-aligning with our inner selves and heart felt feelings that makes us complete and at home no matter what the surroundings are or what country we are in.

There is certainly no place like home....but it is often in a place that few people choose to look.

If this resonates, then with a still mind, you can introduce the ideas that your home is where you find your authentic expressions from your soul. ?
