Hello, my dear! How are you and how is your heart today? Have you had a chance to enjoy yourself in this moment, yet? Or are you checking email while cooking, brushing your teeth, and trying to tell your spouse coffee is done with airplane lander signals? I hear ya.
Speaking of texting while cooking, one morning recently, I was doing my feelings check-in with my wife. We do this over text. Usually, it’s just me, my breakfast, and the speak-to-text mode on my phone. Makes me feel I get to eat breakfast with my wife. Anyhoo, on this morning, I wanted my favorite black bean recipe. Which meant chopping veggies.
Long story short, on my pointer finger, half of my nail got sliced through, and a wee bit of the underlying finger. Ouch! Yep, I wasn’t paying attention to cutting while texting. After many strings of the rated R-version of son-of-a-nutcracker and a few minutes under the sink, the wound was bandaged.
What we don’t notice when we’re going through life can hurt us. Sometimes, like that day, it was obvious. Other times, like how we respond to others, how we think we’re “helping” them, it isn’t.
What’s the first step? Listening.
My friend, truth teller, and Love and Light Warrior Laurie Herbers and I talked about this first step. When can we start? What do we get when we listen?
Join us as we share more about truth bombs and heart nudges on Laurie’s Soul Love Legacy show. (BELOW 👇) Would love to know what you think.
Either way, as you move through your day, I hope you can take a pause to drink in this moment that is your precious life, and to listen inside to see how to take care of and know yourself better. It’s always better to live one moment than survive many at the same time.
with love, light, and laughter,
Heidi Esther
