VLOG 11: One Thing After Another

In this "He Said, She Said" post, we share our quite evening spent picking apples in cozy sweaters (both under $30!) at Simmons Farm outside of Pittsburgh.

Lately, my life has been feeling like I’m being thrown one thing after another. Scratch that. It’s been feeling like that for awhile and I think I’m starting to realize why: I’ve been neglecting the moments in between.

I’m so worried about what I can do to man the current misfortune that even when things are totally out of my control, I’m thinking, “what am I going to do?” or “how on earth am I going to get through this?”. All of the time I could be spending recovering emotionally is spent suspended in a pool of uneasiness. I’m always either waiting for the current storm to end or anticipating when the next one is going to hit.

I get by, I do. I’m one resilient gal and I always survive. I will persevere every time. But I’m beginning to discover there’s a difference between persevering with stress and persevering with strength.

This week’s video is a reflection on how I need to find more living in between the pockets of stress (and hopefully as I figure it out it will inspire you to do the same). At the same time, I’m also so grateful for the recent shift I made in my business, because had I continued on the path I was on, these last few weeks would have been even more stressful. So, I’m going to go ahead and count that decision as one step towards a life of doing more living and less stressing. =)
