You know that expression of “the show must go on” I am sure. So very common indeed. The life of sports entertainment goes on always despite influencers interfering in a match. I mean this metaphorically of course. I also am not referring to anything that could catastrophically happen but possibly other factors. How about if someone in the ring goes off script and turns rogue? Then what? Fans may not know the difference as writers scramble to figure it all out. The show goes on just like life goes on.
Warrior’s life went on after wrestling obviously but many didn’t think so in a way or didn’t truly want to. Some would say his life was nothing without that sport which propelled him into stardom. He would wholeheartedly disagree and make sure his “show”went on in multiple ways. What about you? Does your show go on even though you may have left something behind? That’s life for all of us warriors. We are always moving forward while letting stuff go. Beginnings and endings all at once. It doesn’t have to be a career at all and in fact the every day things seldom are. In order to grow, things need to change or we will be on repeat forever. For some of us, that’s OK but for most, we crave more and need it.
I’ll take this another way. It doesn’t have to be a physicality at all either. If you don’t like your body, your lifestyle needs to change or anything like that. For me~~ it’s more beliefs, attitudes, negative feelings, and others opinions that come to the surface. I can list more but I’m sure you get the point. We want to look and feel better but aren’t always willing to let go during the process. The show goes on as life never stops just because you’re afraid of something. Lately for me, it’s been a whirlwind of changes but I face it all since my show goes on too. I’ve had many physical, emotional, and mental changes to deal with and it becomes all too much at times. To anyone spiritual out there, look up the word “overwhelment” by Abraham Hicks. Yeah, that’s me this past month for sure as it is the last day of August already! How can that be? The show goes on.
I’ve had major life changes for both my kids, milestones, and even some friendly surprises that brought me such “overwhelment” emotion. It’s all there but the show doesn’t roll the credits on our final act until we physically leave. Warrior has a different show up in “parts unknown” as I do know but our lives here still go to the next scene. Maybe it’s a new chapter but it’s your show to write. You really are the writer ya know, ✍🏻 it isn’t just handed to you like maybe what’s given to those WWE performers. We need that slow down time as there are moments. Little by little, the plate gets emptied but it’s when it becomes overfilled when we feel like submitting! Sometimes that happens but there’s always good stuff on that plate too. I hope you take the good stuff in better but it’s all there as our show moves along. Things happen with or without our approval and advice. It’s all in how we handle it and I gotta tell ya~ sometimes I object!
We as parents need to let our babies grow just like they need that independence too but if something bad is pinning you to the mat, see if you can release it. It is hard when it’s something we’ve held onto for so long and some negative habits also can be hard to break. The good of course is much harder to send off but we need to move through our life with grace which will make it easier. That’s one of my words warriors so I ask for it often.
Guess what? I just thought of a song because well, most probably know. 😉 It’s “Life Goes On” by Poison. You can look it up as the lyrics are romantic (which doesn’t apply here) but that title came to me since it’s so true. It’s up to us to keep the show that is our life going and doing it in the best way we can. We will have those heart wrenching times but we need them or life would be static. Who wants that? Yes, some ideas or choices seem so daunting but behind them, there can be good if we allow it all in. I’ve had some good pick me up blessings of late.
Dana and her girls needed their show to go on despite life without Warrior. They didn’t stop living because he did here and we can’t either even as the years progress. He does not want that for anyone. We all know with our lives how events lead to others which could never have been imagined both good or bad. It has to move the way it does whether we agree or not. Relationships are tricky. Some stay, some don’t. We will have it all and be on both sides. We can search for answers but some aren’t for us to know. The part you CAN know is how to best accept your show going on as the performer YOU are. Handle it with grace warriors so you can be ready for the next act on the page. Warrior’s show went on with all of us continuing his legacy in ways he would love.
Keep your show and don’t cancel it just because the storyline isn’t quite right. Nothing is that perfect happy ending without “foreign objects” getting in the way. Battle through those and prove that your warrior show is worth watching. The only ratings that matter are your OWN…
P.S. I used to hate on actual TV shows of seeing the words “to be continued…” UGH! Our shows are always continued. Comedy, drama, action, romance, thriller or anything else. You decide on the channel of YOUR life.
P.P.S. 30 years ago TODAY was SummerSlam ’92 in Wembley Stadium, London, England. I knew that date was getting close.. “The Fair” story in my book mentions this match between the Ultimate Warrior and “Macho Man” Randy Savage but as a dream.., 😴 My very 1st spirit visit dream ever and yes, I watched clips and read my ‘lil story in the book.., 💪🏻📗
