DRIVE

I sold my car today.

I made the decision to sell it a week ago and I set the intention that I would sell it within the week…and this happened.  When I make a decision, I act fast.  There’s no time to mess around.  GET IT DONE. 

I have experienced the most change that I have ever experienced in my life over the past 6 months. I went from being in a serious/just-around-the-corner-from-being engaged relationship, with a “good job” in the corporate world-good pay, benefits, the works- and with a pretty sweet car that got me places.  

I’m now boyfriend-less, “j-o-b”-less, and car-less…

All three were anchors that were weighing me down.  By cutting myself off from these anchors, I have created a vast amount of room for kites a.k.a people and places and spaces and opportunities that will lift and raise me UPwards and ONwards…and towards realizing and living my full potential!

I have never been so damn happy! I feel free, and light, and more than ready to spread my wings and fly, and to take on the world on my own terms!  I’m already well on my way. 

Hannah Georgas lyrics to her Canadian Road Song “Drive” really resonate with me today.  I’m not driving a car anymore (these aren’t good for anyone), but I am most definitely putting my life in ‘DRIVE.’

DRIVE-

~I want the fast life

Give me the highway

I hear it call, I hear it call

Wind at my side

Songs that I wanna sing

I need it all.  Give me it all.

I get so restless waiting.

You give me time and I just dig further & further & further in.

But put it in DRIVE.

Watching the cities as they fly by.

The traffic lights are the only thing stopping me this time.
