A Journey into Thought & Spirit

Sunspiration #96: Let Your Spirit Fly

In exactly one month from today, I will board a plane from Seattle in Porto in light of rediscovering my soul on the Camino de Santiago Trail, the Portuguese Central Way. 2018 has been one of most tough year's I've endured.

Divorce. Losing contract work. Can't seem to land a full-time job. Fractured Toes. Medical Bills. Getting ghosted by a so-called "spiritually enlightened and empathetic" man. Corrupt lawyers. But at least I'm still alive, and so are my cats and my family. 

I discovered news that the gym I work in is temporarily closing for construction. I took this as a sign from God to get the hell out of Seattle and do something. Israel? Camino? Or both? I decided to skip Israel this trip, though its my Jesus Year being 33, and felt the need to resurrect just like Christ. When I booked Lufthansa Flight 1111 from Santiago to Germany, to return "home" to Hannover, I knew I made the right decision. 

At some point in life you have to say, "fuck it," and stop worrying about bills, rent etc. and do something for your soul. What is it that you want to do? Whether it's to make time to read a book, or visit the land where your family comes from, at some point choose yourself. Live minimally and within your means, and when you do this, it gives you the flexibility and opportunities to choose yourself when needed. 


As always, inspired by the sun, 
Elizabeth

We all have these moments in our lives when things seem to be not working the way we want planned them to be. But despite of all these things that you have experienced, I admire your bravery of continuing life. I might still be younger than you and my experiences are not as hard as what you had, but things are not working right in my life as well. One of the things that I always think as a solution is to run away from all of these things. The pressure and burden begin to become unbearable to the point that I no longer know what to do anymore.

When it rains, it pours. We all go through stormy stretches in life. I love the approach you're taking by feeding the soul to get back on your feet. Sometimes a mental refresh is all we need to get back into the rhythm of things. Good luck with everything and hope to hear good things from you in the future!

Besides vacations, what other things do you guys do to refresh the mind? As a trainer, running and cycling are some of my go to activities, but I'd love to hear what others do to reflect and get away.

I'm Angel Castor from the US. White Caucasian Female. I'm 43 years old and I got married at the age of 25, I have only two children and I am living happily.

Five years ago, my husband's behavior became so strange that I didn't really understand what was going on. He packed out of the house to another woman’s house and I love him so much that I
never dream of losing him, I tried my best to make sure that my husband got back to me but all to no avail, I cried and cried seeking help. I discussed it with my best friend Alison and she told me she can help me. She told me of a man called Dr. Odunga, she told me he is a very great man and a real man that can be trusted and there is nothing concerning love and Pregnancy issues he cannot solve and she told me how he has helped her and countless number of people in

restoring their relationship. I quickly contacted his email address at [email protected] I explained all my problems to him, he told me that I should not worry that all my problems will be fine. Presently, I am very happy I got my husband back to me with the help of Dr. Odunga and we are living happily with so much love for each other. What-app message/call him at +2348167159012 to help you
