Happy March warriors as it gets near to that WrestleMania season once again. 2 of Ultimate Warrior’s WM’s have big milestones this year but more on those as the month progresses. I actually did recently look ahead and April brings 2 OTHER important dates of Warrior’s on blog day this year. It has happened before but runs back around the ring again. That’s weeks away though… 💙💙
You’ll see UW in that photo of his very first match at MSG, notice the microphone? 🎙️ Just another one I captured from “ The Ultimate Collection” DVD so decided starting March off with a first of his. Those WM’s coming up also were “firsts” as they connect in a way… Spring will be here later this month and my son’s 22nd birthday. Hopefully, soon we’ll start more househunting as many we have seen don’t seem big enough, ugh! How are we into month 3 already of this year? I hope all your readers are doing well and thank you as always for checking in.
So, how are things going for all of you today? I will say I’m slowly allowing my horse 🐎 to trot, gallop, and then finally run into this new year. You might just be like Warrior and run no matter what but for me, it has to be gradual in many areas. Some though I will RUN away from or towards but most require a more observant approach in my life.
What are you running into this month warriors? Maybe yours is like mine with more of a slow start but you know what, that’s OK! We all move at our own pace on our own journey. Remember how it’s not about the destination but only that you keep moving in your direction~~~ even if it’s baby steps. If you constantly compare yourself to how others run, you will never be authentically YOU as I am still learning all the time. No matter the naysayers~~~ ignore them. I do based on the work I put out into the world but will admit, some days am faced with that resistance. Do I love to see bigger numbers or get more emails and reviews? Yes, of course I won’t lie here. I just always need to remember my purpose which was never fame and fortune but to share, inspire, and educate so that is what I will continue to do.
Sometimes we need to go slower in order to become more aware as is the case for me. Maybe others need that speed but as we all know overtime, they will look back and possibly wish they took something at a different pace. Even Warrior had commented on this. Have you heard the expression of “ rejection is God’s protection?” You can take God out if you want but look at things that way. I never used to and still have a hard time but that resonates like I said last week when we still hold onto certain ideas that we truly want to happen and then never do or will. We need to decide to stop running towards that and end the match. Be excited for something better or maybe more aligned with your real purpose.
I’m so grateful my running led to “ The Ultimate Truth” podcast as I’m happy to have been on the show and will be for a few episodes. We taped 3 together and next time I’ll be with the other guys. We discussed Warrior’s faith and how that influenced generations regarding the spiritual aspect. I did not over share any details of my connection with Warrior, but did plug this blog and my book, 📗 of course! I had a great time and was told I did very well. Next week, I will provide the links for anyone interested to “run” on over and check it out. The first episode dropped * TODAY* actually so you can get a head start on them if you wish.
I will continue to run a little faster into this month but will need my rest that is for sure. Slow and steady is me like that tortoise 🐢 but if you are more of a hare 🐇, well, be who you wish. In some races, we need to get to that finish line in order to begin again. Without endings, there can be no new beginnings, which has been a message on here frequently. So, yeah~~~ I guess sometimes we do desire that destination despite the saying and Warrior’s words but again, the journey matters most. Think of it like a sandwich metaphor. Yep, the bread or bun has value, but we all know the inside ingredients are what makes that sandwich, right? 🥪 Or another way is this. You can’t get from A to Z without going from B to Y first. That’s why we need a journey.
If Warrior had not kept running in a way, very few ideas would’ve come along, and with his originality he needed that. Some of us are content with things the way they are but after a bit, we grow restless. Some opportunities just shift by themselves which in turn causes us to distance a bit. I was part of a spiritual group for many years now as previously mentioned but with the leader selling her house and moving to a smaller one last year, meetings got displaced or infrequently held. She still plans a few things but I think the fairs have diminished somewhat. These instances make leaving a little easier and especially with my family moving later this summer as well. I will live too far away to participate so yet another sign, pointing my way to end that race although with such fond memories. After all, that is the place where my first book vendor events were held at those holistic fairs.
So warriors, what is it you need to run towards this month and what do you need to run away or keep running away from? 🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♂️ I’m sure you have your own events but there are those ideas that do the running themselves. It’s up to you, deciding if they are worth chasing or not. Take risks and be discerning, both are needed in the race. I may not always run but for this month, I will MARCH!
P.S. Oh~~~ and a few days ago when I was filling the birdfeeder, I found a Bluejay feather just about in the exact same spot months ago when leaf blowing! Perfect ultimate timing. 💙😊🪶
