It is one O’clock on this cold South African Tuesday morning. I am traveling, staying in a frail care home for four days while my child is writing her matric exam in this town, a two-hour drive from the main town we live in. One would think she should have been able to write it in the bigger town.

Don’t ask about the old age home, the 15-year-old little dog she had since she was four whom I always asked to just last till she finishes matric, now traveling with us because he had a heart attack a few days ago and could not stay home. Ha ha ha. Sometimes my life feels surreal.

I signed up for my MKE and a funded trading account which started at the same time. Challenging, struggling with internet connection, my accounts not connecting, support, getting up at 1 am in the morning, trying to sleep during the day and all the elderly people wanting to talk to me and the dog while I am trying to get something done.

Missing the passwords I need for my MKE submitting DMP and blog. What on earth have I gotten myself into? In total overwhelm, but persisting.

Fortunately, persistence is my second name.

Persisting for 32+ years believing the impossible was possible, I healed from four incurable illnesses that professors told me there were no cures for.

Hence, I know, I can do this too.

Though at the moment it feels like Mark said, the first year at college or university and in total overwhelmed, just putting one foot in front of the other. At the moment for the moment, just this moment has become my motto over many years when I could not take the next step.
It is my Thursday morning, and my trading account just got connected while I was sleeping, I just submitted my DMP and soon this blog.

We are leaving today, and going home where I will be set up again to do my YT, coach my clients, and back into “routine”. All is well, one step at a time. In the moment for the moment, every moment. Don’t stress about the small “stuff”. In the end, it works out the way it has to.

There is purpose in divine timing and connections on a micro-scale. Go with the flow.
I am looking forward to the next growth phase of this journey and I am blessed and thankful that I may journey with all of you until we part again.

May you be blessed beyond your wildest dreams.

I am.

Love

Maria
