Moving’ On Up?

 So … I want to start with an apology.   Well…technically  I don’t “want” to, however, I feel it is appropriate—you knw it’s been a lot of days in betweeen  entries.  I’m sorry…. These things happen when you move.  Where am I now you ask…. Well that’s appropriate.  Maybe we should ask ourselves that on a regular basis in the Seeking Peace and Joy Universe.  Where am I?  Here or course!  What Time is it?  Now of course!  Where is here?   

Gaylord Michigan a New Hometown—

There will be so much to say once this has become the Seekion  Peace and Joy base for a bit longer.   For now let’s ponder the whole idea of “moving” for a few. Moments.

Why people hate to move, yet we do it constantly and sometimes without realizing it.  

Moving….

So could we say that moving is the act of taking all our stuff from one place, packing it up in places where we can’t find it just for a minute, and taking it to another place where no matter what that space looks like…it never all quite fits the way you may have imagined?   

So that raises the question “don’t we move all the time in life?”  You se when you were growing up didn’t we have some toys and and games and friendships that didn’t quite fit in other spaces as we went along?  as our body changes over time don’t we have some activities that no longer fit into our lifestyle?    Well then aren’t we moving quite often?

People and a lot of us… swear we hate to move and yet … who doesn’t think it is a good idea to take a good look at many if not all parts of your life and spending some quality time deciding what you really need moving forward and what you can leave by the curb?  

Well you say…some valuable things get broken when we move.   Well when we stay in the same place emotionally and physically do we fall out of place with changing times or do we miss out on chances to really grow?   So does that mean there are some risks in not moving?

If you believe in the notion that “wherever you go—there you are then how important is it to be internally secure rather than playing the comparing game of being defined by any number on a mailbox? 

Also when you move you take the time to reposition some big things like that hide-a-bed or the big hutch and how often might it be a good idea to reposition parts of your life like the value of friendships in relation to work or the gift of health in relation to the number of dollars in your stock portfolio?  Being forced to move some stuff around creates all types of new perspectives in rooms and in lives…. So moving well isn’t the ugly thing we make it out to be.

Like  I said before  Gaylord is the new Seeking Peace and Joy. Universe base camp and we are going to be featuring  a few things about it in the blog and podcast.  For now ask yourself if it’s time to load up the truck and move to Beverly…Hills that is…swimming pools and movie stars lol. More soon
