I am a believer in the universal power of muck. Have you ever thought about muck??? It is sticky, likely brown, annoying and usually slows you down. The world seems so full of muck it is not even funny sometimes. Other people’s muck gets in your way, your muck can get combined with other people’s muck, etc. etc. You get the picture. But I am here to tell you that muck can be fun if you find the right connections within yourself and with other people who are your “clan”.
What are the “right” connections within yourself??? Only you can answer that question. It took me 50 some years to feel ok with the connections within myself so don’t feel like you are behind the eight ball here if you are struggling. And here is the ironic part……when the dots finally start to line up…..there are more dots to try to round up….so that’s why we all need to let the dots do their own thing and line up on their own. Just TRUST that the universal powers will show us the right dots at he right time.
When we trust that the universe is sending us in the right direction be reassured that we will meet the “right” people. These people are our clan and it is the darnest thing but they bestest people in the world & they help us get through all the muck. Even if, at first glance or first encounter, they don’t seem to fit into the world vision you created. They are the souls that are here to guide us during our journey and, best of all, when you talk with them it feels like “home”.
Fellow clan members fill our souls, our lives & help to put the pieces of our lives together. So……keep these folks tight to the vest and recognize their abilities, but be ready to let them go if you need to because sometimes they are only supposed to be a part of our lives for a short time.
Bet you are asking, ” What is she getting at with the universe talk, muck, trust and clans.” Well let me tell you, my friend and nursing colleague, when we put our energies into trusting ourselves and seeking out others of like mind….our inner soul will thrive and show us the best pathway through the muck to an amazing nursing career. Let me put it another way, when we are good on the inside our NURSING CAREER CAN BE A GIFT TO OURSELVES AND TO OTHERS. Isn’t that what we wanted when we decided to answer the calling to nursing??? Yep, think about it my friends, it’s what we wanted when we started our amazing nursing careers and it is truly what we still want despite the fact we are tired of the crap! We are in this world to get it right not to be right so let’s stick with our desire to help others and make the nursing profession our happy place.
