Feliz Domingo and happy 2nd Sunday of advent! I remember very well living in this apartment of a friend for some time where through this small window I could look at the Tejo, its sea-like water masses, the ever changing sky, clouds... Looking through this window seemed like a picture in motion, always the same frame but small changes happening during the day(s). I remember also two very different feelings: On the one hand the feeling of safety, of being home, of having a cosy haven or lookout and on the other hand the longing to be out there on the water, to move with the waves and to travel with the ships or the clouds, but move and be an adventurer. The thing is: Both in life is equally important, to have your safe zones, your comfort zones where you can reflect and recharge and dream of adventures and to go out and live the journey that is meant for you, to step out of this comfort zone, to extend your horizon and experience all these feelings of uncertainty as well. Only if there is the right balance we can develop and grow confidence and trust. If we don´t go out and overcome our fears we will never have the feeling of being proud of ourselves and to learn to trust in ourselves. But this is crucial for our feelings of self-worth. That safe haven that is important is above all a firm base of trust within ourselves. We need to nourish it sometimes by spending time in our comfort zone, that´s totally fine but we also need to make it stronger by going out and realizing that the limitations that are holding us back are often just created by ourselves and our fears or beliefs that are not really our own. May this picture be a reminder for you to examine what you need right now for the right balance to make your journey a really smashing one – a bit more of the safe haven or a bit more of the adventure. ⛵️
