LONE-WOLF


I was once an expert on running-a-muck. Yeah, that's a word. And it was 100% true. Sometimes my endless 90mph energy was put to good use towards things like exercise or extra-circular activities, but most of the time, it went towards being a self-proclaimed wild child. Social status, the dating world, and countless girlfriends were almost always at the top of my priority list. I will never forget the 1st time a Life Coach called me out on the fact that what I was really doing was simply avoiding "self." Refusing to sit with just me and be. Of course, by that time, I was barreling through my late 20's with a white knuckle grip onto what I thought was my identity. In fact, looking back, I believe a part of me feared that "settling down" would leave me restless and bored.
Today, I am proud to announce just how wrong I was. I will always be an adventure seeker, but the adventures I chose now are completely different than 5 years ago. My life has taken on this Zen-like vibe, where "action" is usually associated with a nature based activity, and my free time without Julitto, is spent mostly flying solo. I used to avoid the alone time, and yet now, i find it rewarding and refreshing. What I used to view as "boring" is now a feeling of clam and peace. I had no idea how truly exhausted I was running from myself, and telling the inner me that i was just enjoying being popular.
What I enjoy today is a little dose of that Lone-Wolf. When my husband is away at training, I surprisingly soak up those moments of solace during a music infused power walk, long bubble bath, or the quiet time where I am blogging and all I can hear is the sound of the keys being typed and light hum of this laptop. I had no idea that I was even capable of being my own best friend. 
....kinda proud of me!

ARE YOU AN INTUITIVE EMPATH?

SIGNS YOU ARE "AN INTUITIVE EMPATH" 1) You can feel other people's emotions, but you have full awareness that they are not your own. 2) You can see beyond a person's feelings and instinctively understand the larger picture and what's truly behind their emotions. 3) You often help others better understand their own feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. 4) You are typically everyone's "go-to" for counseling & advice in your daily routine. 5) You are naturally hyper-sensitive. 6) You physically cannot stand to witness suffering in others. 7) You may not be comfortable in large groups, as all that energy is overwhelming. 8) Physical symptoms appear after emotionally intense situations. 9) You are basically a human lie detector. 10) You grow uncomfortable around those that are being inauthentic.
