I learned a phrase earlier this year that I wish I would have known earlier in my life. The phrase is this-
It’s not my turn.
It has served me well when I feel restless, out of time or worst of all- resentful.
I wonder if it might serve you too.
It’s not my turn to actually sit at the pool,
It’s not my turn to go after that goal with all my might,
It’s not my turn to go on romantic date nights,
It’s not my turn to get published,
It’s not my turn to take that risk,
It’s not my turn to volunteer as much as I’d like,
It’s not my turn to travel,
It’s not my turn to…fill in the blank.
This phrase helps me to take a deep breath and focus on where my life is right now. To look at the hard and the good with clear eyes. To know where I hope to go and know all I have right here, right now.
And know, just because it’s not our turn right now, doesn’t mean our turn won’t come. If this spoke to you, I believe my book, “The Gift of the Unexpected- Discovering Who You Were Meant to be When Life Goes Off Plan” will too
