Recently, I was checking in with an old friend who asked me about my alignment. The gist of the question was: “how closely am I living in alignment with my values?” After our conversation, I pulled out some old journals and looked back at places where I’d written out my values. I was curious to see how they may have evolved over the years. As I looked back through notes dating back 30 years, I had a jarring realization. What I was calling “values” … weren’t always values.
Oh Patrick I hear you loud and clear. I too have become an aspiration. Every time.
.I repeat..Every time I journal or make bucket lists for self care and personal improvement it becomes clear that I have obtained little care and improvement for myself. The major feeling of reward and alignment I experience is through my work as an End of Life Doula. The alignment I feel here is unsurmountable. And once again I work toward self alignment and improvement. Don't hold your breath you have a weak heart you know. 💔
