I needed this note to self today. To unbreak my heart a little.
So, something I cannot change is the news of Balis extended closure… BUT, I can choose my mindset .
After lots of messages of support- (thank you ) and YES some tears… plus a healthy dose of despair and expensive wine ).
I choose to adapt,
again.
To take deep breaths.
To be kind to myself and allow the sadness.
To feel grateful for what I have time and space to create- in even more beautiful ways.
I truly didnt realise how much of my self was invested in the picture of Bali returning to the travel map; How so many of my ideas and plans were shaped around and leading towards a date.
I may not be having joyous reunions with all the people I would be welcoming back to Bali so soon; but I know they will be SO much sweeter when it does finally happen.
I choose to stay in love with every day.
Its the best gift I can receive right now. (literally ).
And while I feel like Im grieving all over again for a whole load of missed visitors and adventures with my new business here; Im excited to spend this time learning and evolving… -and once more getting involved in a healthy rework of the business plan!
I choose to change it. From disappointment to opportunity.
I hope this helps anyone whos in a similar place… to find the light in a situation they cant change. (and if you read this far…maybe its you?)
