Act 2!

So in my mind my divorce was intermission.....his leaving was what happened at the end of Act 1 leaving a cliffhanger......divorce unfolded, and now the curtains have absolutely opened on my second act.....and I am here for it! And while the fallout was excruciating and the entire process painful.....there is great power in completely renovating your life and giving it an overhaul in your 40s......having things go so topsy turvy that the only way is to completely redefine and reimagine your life.....and that is what I feel I have done....and Act 2 feels pretty great most days....a different vibe, like somebody opened the window and let the beautiful fresh air come blowing in.....but this blog is about honoring Act 1 too....Act 1 seems so long ago......like I cannot fully express that enough.....like a life I don't remember at all....one filled with beautiful places I never want to forget....my childhood....my teen years, which were great for me, not so much my parents lol:) Sorry mom and dad:) ....my wedding day.....which was a magnificent day, it truly was.....and the birth of my babies....and just some really amazing days....ones that laid the foundation....in ways I really understand now......to help me live THIS life....all of the pieces working together to lead me here.....each moment, and each adversity helping me prepare for what was next.....and so now here I am.....beginning my life again at nearly 50.......wondering what the next 50 years will hold....knowing that it will hold intention, and light and love, and magic and purpose....feeling as if I am becoming more of who I came here to be every day, or maybe remembering who I am, a woman that was always here, hard to say.....but absolutely walking in my life's purpose....and reaping the satisfaction that comes with doing that......act 2 comes with more wisdom...more discernment.....more intention......way more discipline.....gosh.....that is certainly something that has come forward in this chapter.....and maybe just more....more of the deep and good stuff that our lives are based on.....abundance in its truest sense....feeling the depth of the day and day so deeply.....and the intricacies all working together in such a beautiful way.....and intermission lasted for awhile....my getting my bearings, before the curtain came up on Act 2....but I had faith that it would....even early on....when I have read those early blog entries......my faith and hope in this day....and this act was born early on.....I could sense the light in the dark, knowing that if I was brave enough to heal and face it all, I would be rewarded for that, by grabbing a new life....and well....that has happened.....and Act 2 is just getting started and I cannot wait to see where it takes me:) And Act 1 will always hold a special place in my heart....not better or worse....just different....and worthy in its own right.....but I am glad to leave it behind.....and not have to play out some of the scenes found there ever again......never again.....amen xoxo Have a great day! As for me today is my LAST DAY OF SCHOOL:):):) WOOP WOOP! Bring on summer:)
