Sometimes we try to insert ourselves into situations where we are not a good fit.  We are asked by others to get involved and do not feel we can decline the invitation or directive. We have strong feelings positive or negative about it and want to be involved.  It is so easy for me to think because I have strong feelings I must do something about them.  But does the role I am playing fit with a way I can best be of service? Does what I have been asked to be a part of fit with what I am effective in life? Am I trying to make myself fit a situation because it is all I know and I fear to chart new waters? Is something no longer a fit for me and I am afraid about what it says about me that it no longer fits? We know change is inevitable yet we fight so hard to hold on to how we see ourselves fitting in the world and are used to. We lose the willingness to find new ways to fit.  When we slow down and take the time to listen to our hearts, we take the necessary step in determining where we fit best at this moment.  Our heart is guided by an in and an out breath through which we connect to its wisdom to notice how are lives call upon us to fit here today but maybe not fit tomorrow.
