and other things to think about...

A view of Spring from my walk with my two oldest grandchildren yesterday.
Spring Reflection
Spring is a beautiful time for reflection, and many of you have messaged, sharing how you've enjoyed going deep with me here on Fridays.
A few have shared some moving stories about the positive impact these reflections have had on their lives.
With that in mind, here are 5 more questions you can use for a Spring reflection while you're drinking your coffee this morning, throughout your day, and into the weekend...
📌 Who am I, really?
📌 What concerns me most about the future? Is there something I can do about it today?
📌 What am I really scared of? Why and what action would I take if fear wasn’t part of this?
📌 Am I holding on to something I need to let go of?
📌 If this were the last day of my life, would I have the same plans for today?
Pick one-or all 5-and sit with them. You might be surprised by the answers.
Who am I really?
With what I have accomplished in my life, I can say there is really still something very important missing in my life.
I have been so much in fear and conscious of what will happen to me in the future. I ask my self. Is this the life I really want to enjoy? I retired from my beloved position as Public Schools District Supervisor for me to enjoy life. But after three years of living a solitary where I shunned away from my colleagues and friends except on LinkedIn because of my hearing disability , a realization hits me. I don't want this kind of life. I have to do something.
Very timely my nephew gave me the name of a hearing specialist who could help me. Without second thoughts I booked an appointment. Today I consulted the doctor. After the tests, he gave me the hearing aids to sample my hearing. It was good enough because I can hear properly without the irritating noise and sounds. As we talked, I told my doctor, if this will be a successful one for me, I know now what I want to do in my life.
I told him. I will go back to teaching, my passion and my super power. I have to let go of that fear of not being understood and my fear of not understanding what others are saying or else my life will be in such a total waste..
Now, I am relieve of letting my fear go. I have to be brave. I have to open up and accept all the challenges that lay ahead of me the, I had done many years ago
