How Much Better Can Life Get?
Reverend Michael asked this question during a recent Sunday service .
I found myself asking the same thing about a month ago.
Last May, I had no idea what was next.
I didn’t have a clear plan. I just knew that what I had was no longer working.
I felt depleted. I had poured so much of myself into life and relationships, but what came back didn’t reflect the love, energy, and heart I had invested.
Something had to change.
I deep down knew I deserved better.
I had to break a curse and shift the course of my life entirely.
So...
I began to intentionally shape my beliefs.
I stopped feeding what wasn’t working and started feeding the life I wanted.
I meditated for hours, rebuilding myself from the core.
I learned to trust again: trust in myself, in life, and the unseen support around me.
And slowly, things began to shift:
✨ I got the job I imagined; one where I feel valued, supported, and able to shine.
✨ I moved to a peaceful area, close to nature and a pickleball court. 🤸♀️
✨ I longed for a community where I could fully be myself, and I’m now meeting those people and deepening meaningful connections.
✨ I wanted a life that aligned with my heart and soul, and one step at a time, I’m creating that now. ✨ 🩷
Let me pause and say, I’m not sharing this to brag.
After everything I’ve been through, I’m simply celebrating, openly and without hiding. Because for 16 years on this healing journey, I’ve lost faith many times. It often felt like the further I walked this path, the harder, the more isolated and lonely it got. Until one day, something clicked.
And from that point on, things began to shift. Not overnight, but undeniably.
Lately, as I’ve started to settle into this new reality, I noticed something. I was getting a little too comfortable. Almost as if this was it. As if this was as good as it gets.
But then I remembered the power of intention.If I could create this life, what more is possible?
What if life holds even more joy, love, depth, and meaning than I’ve ever imagined?
So now, I’m holding this question close to my heart:
How much better can life get?
