What excites you about the future and what scares you about the future (WEEK 202)

Good afternoon dear hivers, I hope you are having a great Sunday... Below I share with you my participation in the interesting weekend challenge proposed by our friend @galenkp.

What excites you about the future and what scares you about the future

From my future I am excited to be able to continue fulfilling all the goals I set for myself with the same energy as always, to be able to carry out all the activities with the certainty of feeling that I have enough stamina to do it. Feeling that my body has the necessary capacity to work without feeling tired makes me feel a lot of satisfaction, I fully enjoy all the chores at home and the outdoor activities. My mother was a very active person, I remember that when she was young she used to tell me to take advantage of that energy because she knew that the years were not forgiving and that when she reached old age she would have the satisfaction of having enjoyed her body endurance to the maximum, I follow this good example. I am also excited about my future imagining that the work I do in my present will bear the necessary fruits to feel fully satisfied of having fulfilled all my goals, I am aware that many times some desires remain on the way without being able to be fulfilled, I have the maturity to accept it without feeling frustration or sadness, the important thing is to try with the tools we have at our disposal. At this point I usually make plans with realistic goals that go hand in hand with our reality, it is better to advance little by little. Something that excites me a lot about my future is to imagine that I can live near the sea, although I love the city where I live, because it gives me the comfort and security to feel good, I have always been fascinated by the sea, imagine that from my balcony I can listen to the waves while enjoying the cool breeze and the colors of a beautiful sunset makes me continue to build my life plans towards that north. While I get closer to that reality that I want, I will continue to enjoy my process. I must confess that I value my present a lot. I am always in connection with my current moment, accepting with a good attitude the changes and challenges that come my way. Another point that excites me about my future is being able to build a holistic space where I can work as a Reiki teacher, while this desire materializes, I continue with my work of helping people who need this type of healing.

I have always thought that the future is unpredictable, I consider that it is out of our hands to protect ourselves against something so uncertain and fragile. Sometimes I think about my future imagining a range of scenarios that could be possible, in some I have felt calm, but in others I have felt fear and this feeling of fear makes me feel anguish about some situations that may never happen, for this reason for years I made the decision to block from my mind imagining my unstable or gray future, I always think positively, idealizing and believing good scenarios. I recognize that it is not enough to think positively because there are realities that are inevitable, one of the things that scared me about the future was old age, but not because of what it means to reach that age because it is considered a beautiful stage as long as you are surrounded of your family and that you have a good quality of life without any physical or mental disability that limits you, but since I always think positively and am optimistic, I am certain that in my old age I will enjoy the care and love of my children.
