Blogging from Paris

.... and feeling grounded - and it's good to be back to earth!

I never caught the afternoon flight as it was cancelled and I ended up having a really great time courtesy of Air France! After being picked up by a taxi I was taken to a 5 star hotel - fed the most wonderful food and spent the afternoon in a beautiful spa, sitting in a jacuzzi in the sunshine, having a deep massage, sauna and  turkish bath...... my body had a wonderful water caressed afternoon - and it was exactly what it needed!

I woke up the next day with so much clarity it was wonderful.......

Then yesterday a really good seminar which reflected back to me where my thinking is and reaffirmed what I know - but even when you 'know' it is sometimes difficult to 'know' you 'know'!

And I  DO KNOW!!!!!!!!

Love the clarity.

So waking up in Paris - off to Brussels later - feeling really positive and happy. Know I have a lot of work to do but know that I can see where I am going!

Yesterday at the seminar a guy talked about 'knowing' in the French language - it was part of a deep discussion. There are three versions of the verb to know:

Savoir - to know
Savoir-faire - to know how to
Savoir-ĂȘtre - to know oneself

This has really helped my thinking as we need all three kinds of knowing..... and we can't use the first two without the third.

So I do know and I know how- but most importantly I know these through knowing myself!

Happiness is!

In two days time it will be the 8th anniversary of Chris's death and the third anniversary of my Father's death and it is good to be alive. To recognise what these two beautiful mean gave me, to love their memories and to be consciously happy on my own journey which is the legacy of theirs.

I feel a huge wave of gratitude.................
