Life is like a song that surprises us with unexpected tunes and tests our strength in unexpected ways. As I think about my journey through 2023, I realize that just like music, life has its high and low notes that shape who we are. Well, if I have to summarize my 2023 so far, it would be "Family duties". A Year of Surprises This year started off busy and full of action, but it quickly turned into a series of challenges that tested my determination. From losing someone dear to traveling urgently back and forth to my home country, dealing with canceled plans, and even facing a bothersome shoulder injury, dealing with first symptoms of perimenopause - it felt like challenges were coming from all directions. But even in tough times, I've always believed in finding humor and joy in life's moments, even when things seem bleak. Losing My Way I started the year with a clear plan and lots of energy. But somehow, I lost my way along the journey. My motivation dwindled, and the thought of restarting my teaching in September felt overwhelming. The personal routines that used to ground me slipped away, and I felt a bit lost and definitely overwhelmed. Seeking Balance Amidst Chaos Amidst all the chaos, I found myself longing for some sense of balance. Currently situated in my home country of Bulgaria, I inhabit my mother-in-law's country house, playing the role of Cinderella in a modern-day tale. Juggling responsibilities from cleaning to cooking, while also managing my work as a virtual assistant, left me gasping for a moment of respite. Don't get me wrong, I cherish my mother-in-law, who is still grieving her own loss along with her health issues, but the longing for solitude and personal space became overwhelming. Come on, I even haven't the opportunity to visit my parents (except my father's BD)... Dreams and Desires In the midst of everything, I started yearning for simple things. Moments for myself became rare, and even the act of brushing my teeth alone felt like a luxury. Nature's call grew louder, reminding me of the beautiful mountains back in Bulgaria that I love. And while the aroma of Balkan food filled the air, I wished for a meal that aligned with my healthy choices. And yes, I perfectly aware that what I am experiencing right now is is the best yoga practice ever - Seva yoga - selfless service, but to be honest, right now, there is nothing selfless left in me. Navigating Communication Challenges Turning to my husband, my confidant and rational anchor, I hoped to find comfort. But sometimes, it's hard for him to understand my feelings. He'd suggest simple solutions like waking up earlier, not realizing the struggles I was facing. It's in these moments that I realized how unique each person's journey is - he's an early bird, and I'm a night owl, dealing with insomnia :). Learning from others And here I am, sharing my thoughts and desperation and seeking wisdom from those who've walked their own paths through life's challenges. How have you tackled tough situations? How did you regain your balance when life felt off track? Your stories, advice, and positive words are like guiding lights for a soul searching for direction. Taking Back the Tune
Amidst the chaos, I find solace in knowing that life's song is rich and varied. As we navigate the ups and downs, we create our own unique melody. Even when we feel out of tune, the rhythm of life keeps going, waiting for us to reclaim it. So here's to brighter days and rediscovered moments, to finding our way amidst life's unpredictable journey. The sun sets, but it also rises, and in its warmth, we rise too - stronger, more resilient, ready to embrace the ever-changing song that is life. 🌅✨ #EmbraceTheJourney #FindYourBalance #RiseAbove"
