My mojo is missing. Just the other day I entered a brief state where I felt that I was about to step into a powerful new stage of life, by the next day it had vanished. Does this ever happen to you?
I know I’m tired, my routine is out of balance, and I’m not eating or sleeping well. I understand that moving, starting a new job, and learning of a terminally ill father are all highly stressful situations. I understand, and overall I’m managing pretty well…but I miss my mojo!
I think of mojo as that passionate, creative quality that drives life. Being in the flow. I think of the scene in the movie, Finding Nemo, where the turtles are all caught up in the ocean stream that pulls them along. The stream only needs willingness from the turtles and very little effort from them aside from balance and focus.
I think that’s my difficulty. My balance and focus are off, so I am struggling rather than flowing. I also know that it is OK. I know that I will catch that stream again…I always do, and it is always there and available. I can be gentle and patient with myself. I can breathe.
The stream is always flowing. That is truly good news.
