As I was scrolling through TikTok, I came across a lady whose video had the message of “you have arrived”. You know, one of those “If this message resonates with you” type of video. She went on to explain how the self work has been done, the plans have been made and you have now arrived at the same plane (level) as your higher self. She went on to say it’s basically like being in the same room with your higher self and it’s only a matter of time before you realize it.
I went on about my night, scrolling through TikTok and other randomness. It wasn’t until the next day when Float by Janelle Monae played through my speakers at random that I had an epiphany and the words from the TikTok video came flooding back to me. I am highly aware that I have done a lot of “the work” such as soul searching, reading, setting boundaries, etc. I am also aware that life is a never ending journey but what occurred to me is I never stop, at any moment, to acknowledge I have arrived in a new place and just enjoy it for a moment.
To drive the epiphany home, I started to think about a plane. Its whole purpose is to get you from one place to another but it can’t always be up in the air. It has to land, refuel, get maintenance, etc. It’s not just flying around the country 24/7. On my journey, I have stayed so preoccupied with “what’s next” that I don’t take real time to reflect and enjoy how far I’ve come and the current space/time that I’m in. So that’s what I am going to do. Take account of what is for me at this point in the journey to which I have just arrived.
