I think it safe to say that Spring is officially sprung. It's a beautiful, sunny Sunday in late April. And I am realizing that my foundation is essentially complete now.
You cannot build a house and expect it to last unless you first create a strong foundation for that house. In a similar way you cannot create a functional, resilient and rewarding life without first having a solid foundation. You must have a collection of healthy practices in place that serve as the necessary foundation for a good life. Building a foundation can require an immense amount of patience. And yet it is the most vital element of a good home, life or career.
Throughout these last twenty-two months I have been diligently working to identify, acknowledge and uproot the vestiges of the impact of the trauma that caused me so much pain early in my life. In other words, I was strengthening the foundation of my own life by attending to the weaknesses in my foundation. It has often been a painstaking process. But now I am finally essentially done with this part of my new journey. Now I can start building my new 'house'.
