Yesterday, I contemplated life. I thought about how we make plans and wait for the stars to align before finally living. I thought about how we rarely enjoy the fruits of our labour because we learnt to manage while coming up. 🧵
Moving from a scarcity to a prosperity mindset is difficult. It's why we keep reserving things for visitors and keep waiting for vacations before resting. It's why we accept less than ideal love and learn to compromise the sacred.
So, yesterday I decided to do something about the restlessness in my spirit. Something symbolic.
I discovered I typically sleep on only one side of my bed. It's a habit I picked up because I prefer being near the door. I chose to sleep in the middle instead and to "spread out". To use my multiple pillows instead of one.
Rather than start the day in my study, I drank coffee on my balcony, as I gazed at the beautiful mango tree in this thread. I realised there are chairs I've never sat on in my home and so, I sat on them.
