When our lives are going well or not, we usually find ourselves living a status quo existence, a life, as we know it. Resisting change is a very human tendency. If it were possible to decide not to accept status quo in our lives, life would be simpler. Change will come and the status quo will go, eventually, with or without our permission. We find at the end of the day that we feel more empowered as we find the courage to ally ourselves with the universal force of change,
The answer is not to go about changing things at random, without regard to whether they are working or not. There is a time for stability and the preservation of what has been. In fact, the ability to stabilize and preserve what is serving us is part of what helps us to survive and thrive through this life. The problem comes when we focus on the status quo rather than honoring the universal truths. For example, if we allow a situation we are in to remain, because we are comfortable, it may be time for us to seek the courage to challenge this status quo.
It may be painful at times, or surprisingly liberating, yet it will likely be a little of both. Underneath the discomfort, we will find excitement and energy as we risk accepting the natural flow of the universal in our lives. As we dismantle the logjam inside ourselves, the river of our life can flow free. Once we remove the obstacles, we simply go with the flow, trusting the changes that follow, until the next time.

A stress Free home
Sometimes my life is so busy that I treat my home as if it were an impersonal place that I merely pass through. I can make certain that my home can truly feel like my sanctuary by taking the time to tend to it like a garden, which needs care in order to offer me the beauty of its’ blooms. When I take the time to treat my home like a beloved treasure, I can shift the energy from being merely a place to being wellsprings for the replenishment of my energy.
Consider,homes are the outer reflections of us. If we find that the current appearance clashes with how we’d like to present ourselves, it can keep us from allowing our true light to shine. Uplifting our exterior homes to reflect our inner landscape does not require massive redecorations or a large outlay of money. Small things can make a big difference Simply moving items so that you gaze upon the things you love the most. Liberating treasures you have stored in the closets and making small repairs, maybe use the best dishes can bring the inner you out for the world to see. Organizing and cleaning is a way to remove chaos from your home and introduce more calm. Rejuvenating your personal space can become a creative project and increasing the flow of good throughout all aspects of your live and increases the feeling of connection. We can give old things new life by donating them to charity, opening space for tranquility to enter. Removing stress from our homes can be as simple as paying the bills as they arrive so your energy can focus on spiritual needs and letting your energy move freely throughout your space.
Simplifying your space lets your imagination and energy soar free. Choose to prioritize your homes, making them the true heart of family activities. Then there is freedom to focus on what really matters, time for yourself ,time to share with those you love, and time to continue to improve the tranquility and replenish your energy so that you have more to share with each other.

Nothing Big Required
There is a general feeling of we are placed here on Earth to accomplish something large and inspiring with our lives. If we haven’t accomplished something that fits the bill we off times feel as if we are waiting. We may feel incomplete, empty, as if our lives don’t make sense to us. In some cases, this may be because we really are destined to do something that we haven’t yet done and we are driven to start and complete it. In most cases though, we can let ourselves off the hook with the realization that just being here, being ourselves, maybe living an inspired life is enough.
As we live our lives in this world, we share our energy and our spirit with the those around us. Our influence touches their lives and, through them, touches the lives of an even grater circle.. When we strive to live our lives to the fullest and become our true selves, we are doing something much bigger on an inner level. That is more than enough to make sense of our being here, on this planet, at this time. There is no need to hold ourselves to an old idea in the back of our minds that we need to make headlines or single-handedly save the world.
We can also look within our hearts to discover what is true for us, what gives our lives meaning, what excites us. We release ourselves from any inward pressure to perform that which comes from outside of our inner sense of purpose. Staying in tune with our true values and living our lives in tune with our own vision is all we need to fulfill our time here. Life is a process of becoming, thusly we cannot help but co-create; being who we are, responding to each moment as it comes. We can trust that this is enough.
