Sometimes I am slow to rouse, but lately I’ve been listening more closely and I am hearing those wake up calls.

They are telling me that this is enough.   I am enough in this moment.  I am good enough, kind enough, generous enough.  They are saying stop with the self criticism, the self abuse, the self hatred.

When I hear the call, I PAUSE.  I listen to myself.  What is my intention?  I stop being stuck in my deadbeat rut of habitual thoughts.  I breathe….. knowing that the bell is tolling for me.
