It's OK to pull over and "PARK"

Life sometimes throws you a curve ball, or basically things just happen. Sometimes when they do it can disrupt your life for a little while, hopefully not forever.

They say there is are two things we can be certain of in this life and that is Death and Taxes. I recently lost a very dear Aunt, although she was ill we never expected her to go as quickly as she did. I spoke with her the night before she left this world and I am so happy I got the chance to say goodbye.

I had to travel back overseas to London for her service and it was nice to be back home. However, with her passing I lost a lot of motivation and had to put myself in a Parking mode for a little while. I was a little worried that I would not get my mojo back, but then I realized, "It's okay to pull over and PARK sometimes."

By Parking, I mean to stop, regroup and reflect and mourn. This is normal and it is part of the grief process, but I cannot stay parked for long. It's been a few weeks now since her passing and I am ready to continue my Wealthy Affiliate mission. I am behind on my tasks but it's okay it's 5:00:am and I woke up with this on my mind and here I am writing this post.

My engine has come to life again and I am slowing pulling out of "PARK" mode and traveling back along my "ROAD TO SUCCESS."
