SPACE has always been something I needed. Whatever I was doing in my life I required the necessary space for myself to thrive. Whether I chose to write, reflect, create, dance, listen to music, sit in silence, go for a walk or drive, watch tv or a movie, etc… it didn’t matter. Within this space I was free. Isolating yourself from the world around you is healthy, acceptable and quite frankly, smart. We all need time for ourselves. It allows us to reflect, wonder, question, and rest. Not only rest our bodies but our mind as well. No one to answer to, no one to consider, nothing to tend to. It’s just you and space. That surely sounds nice, doesn’t it? It is.

The space I am currently creating around myself has been glorious. No drama. No bullshit. No negative energy. It’s pretty awesome. I seriously recommend you take a good look around and eliminate the things that annoy you, piss you off, or straight up drag you down. It’s not hard. There is a solution for everything. Whatever it is you must do, just do it. We all need to rise up in our own way. No one has the right to invade your space. No one. Exist peacefully and all will be good.

I said this to a friend today that is feeling very overwhelmed and stressed. As I wrote it, I repeated it again in my head and thought it was pretty damn clever. I told myself I would take my own advice and remember that we don’t need to be moving so fast all the time. Whether we are running a business, have a family to take care of, or just have a lot going on (or maybe all 3!), it’s important that we slow down and be present in the moments we create and share. Getting lost in the ‘busy’ sucks. We are living our lives day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute…and it all goes by so fast. Too fast. Why not ‘be’ in all the moments? Like I told my friend, breathe and pause when you need to. Our lives are so precious and when we look back on memories, it’s an amazing feeling to be able to say you were truly in them, taking it all in. Because we are all worth it.
