Turning 41
I don’t normally do these “posts” or well many at all really as I’m sure you can see. I just wanted to share some reflections on turning 41. For me turning any “big age” like 30 has never really bothered me. It didn’t feel big or life changing or old or anything else to be honest.
Turning 31 however, for me felt like I was now in my 30’s! Plans now had to be plans, some plans had to be seriously considered and decided upon….right?!?!?? The plans didn’t go to plan, some plans weren’t made and other plans that I “should’ve” been doing didn’t get much thought at all. The only plan that actually happened was emigrating to Australia. This was also the only plan that was really in my heart and complete knowing of my soul path.
As for the rest, the actual universal plan for me was to heal, break down many limiting beliefs, say goodbye to “filtered” life, learn how to go from small Yorkshire country town girl to a city woman, still with no sense of direction! Some things are lifers hey!
So with all this said, the apprehension I felt coming up to 41, associating it with turning 31….I’ll now be in my fourties!!! Arghhh!
Well that hasn’t happened, what does “turning” in association with “age” mean anyway? I feel good about who I am and the understanding I have of my own sense of self, my energy, capabilities and people I have around me in my life.
Now I will never know for sure but I do feel confident in saying I’m in full belief that if I had have followed all the “should’s” I wouldn’t have become the person you see today! My “plan” so to speak is to continue trusting how I feel and act will remain in alignment with me, which has brought me many many beautiful people, moments and opportunities. I don’t plan on “turning” any other way!
Let’s see how this plan rolls continues to roll out for my future self and if you feel any of this resonates please feel free to adopt the method and I look forward to seeing your blossoming future self too 🌸
