“Pick your battles”- Walk away from the battles-follow your passion

“Pick your battles”, we have all heard these words of advice in our lives. Very meaningful advice, it asks that you remain mindful of who, what and where you spend your time and energy on.

Similarly- “Not my monkey not my circus”, I have heard this being said countless times to disconnect from a difficult person/situation. Again, great reminder to mindfully spend your time and energy on those things that are nourishing than toxic.

If we examine our time here on this planet carefully- were not not put here to battle- maybe our ancestors were, or were they? We were put here to passionately find peace, kindness, love, acceptance in everything exactly as it shows up in our life. The higher the challenge bar, the greater the opportunity to transform.

Being passionate about that which nourishes us is what it may all be about. We are monkeys in this vast circus, in the end, if that we find beauty and passion in something, it maybe a circus but it may just be worth it.
