Are you taking or following directions? – 7/25

~ howtofindyoursilverlining.com

Today I met with my mentor/coach whom I started up with in June last year. I needed a person from outside my family/friends to objectively take a look at my job situation. I basically needed a stranger to ask me a lot of questions (that I almost didn’t wanted to ask myself) in order to get me to a point, where I could make a decision on what to do. In short I wanted someone to take directions from (which of course I have realised is not possible…)

There is no time like the present – 6/25

~ howtofindyoursilverlining.com

Today I met up with a friend for brunch whom I’ve haven’t seen for a while. It was so great to see her and get updated on each others lives. We were talking about our children and our job situation (or in my case lack of job). Any way, as I drove home I couldn’t help thinking about time (the obvious being that we don’t see each other very often, but also time as in constantly planning on where and what to do. If there’s no time like the present – why is it so hard to stay present?

How present is your past? – 4/25

~ howtofindyoursilverlining.com

I recently discovered that my ancestors on my mothers side of the family had pretty tough destinies. I have always known that my grandmother (mothers mother) had a tough upbringing but I was not aware that the story goes way back and includes tragic deaths and a lot of guilt and shame. As a result of my resent discovery I’m having a tough time letting go of their legacy (I’m writing their but right now it seems very much like mine too). It is wearing me down – it’s like a very powerful energi that I can’t seem to shake off. I need to heal. I can’t help wondering: will healing your past make your happiness present?

Finding the answers – 3/25

~ howtofindyoursilverlining.com

I think I have always thought, that there was more between heaven and earth, but it’s not until resent (the past few years) that I have come to understand, that I’m being guided from above, that I sense things and emotions around me. I have been very sceptic about this, as I found it easier if I could just deal with things in a rational way based on facts, in short think logically – and only use my head. But lately I feel I can no longer deny that part of me. So I am trying to open up to that way of comprehending things – and most of all I’m trying to listen.

The 5 week challenge – 1/25

~ howtofindyoursilverlining.com

Today I am starting something new, something I have never tried before. I am taking 5 weeks off from my every day life in the attempt to find my silver lining – inner peace – what makes me happy.

Lately I have found myself in a state of fog where I feel that something is missing or something is just not right. Ever felt like that?

So I spend the next months applying for other jobs and trying to figure it all out in what to do, but I have come to the conclusion that I can’t figure it out or plan what to do next, so I have decided to give myself 5 weeks to try to find my silver lining and to make myself happy again. So what would you do if you, within certain financial and time limits, could do what you wanted? And would it make you happier? I guess time will tell when the 5 weeks are up.

My aim and purpose of this blog is to document what I’m doing everyday to find my silver lining and to have somewhere to put down my thoughts on things – life 🙂
