Live Each Day....

On average we all live between 75 and 80 years of age.  A long time, I here you thinking, but is it really? As I have got older, so life seems to have sped up. Some days I feel like I can´t keep up with how fast time is moving.  Living in Spain, life seems to move even faster here than it used too, or maybe that is just my age!  In reality, life is short and by all accounts we only have one, although I personally have my own views on that.  So many spend all their lives, growing up, living and eventually dying in the same place. That can't be good!

Each of us has defining moments in our life.  Times when one could have chosen to do something different, taken a different path or quite simply, given up.  These are crossroads in our life.  Now as a Palmist or rather Chirologist, I read many peoples hands, where these marks can be clearly seen.  As yet, I have not seen one hand that doesn't have these traits!

Here is a picture of my hand, from about 12 years ago.  I can see many restarts and renewals, as has been the story of my life.  It is natural to go through changes that are life changing, how we cope with them is the most difficult challenge!

Since I have been with Darrell, I have pressed the reset button many times, about six times in reality and each time the process involved has been very different.

The latest new beginning for us, was the most difficult yet and involved climbing mountains we had never climbed before.  I would have never dreamed that I would be living in Spain this time last year, I never saw it coming, because I hadn't looked at my own hand for many years.

​As a rule, I tend to take the easy options in life.  Why bother making something more difficult than it should be.  Life is hard enough, with adding extra work, to an already busy life! 

Over the twenty years I have been with Darrell, when we have approached these crossroads, I have to admit I have been far more reluctant than him, to take the most risky or dangerous option.  I am a Taurean, love my security and home and don't take too kindly to being uprooted and thrown into the unknown.  This time it has been no different to be fare!  I did not want to leave the UK, and if I don´t want to do something, I wont, if I am forced to do it, I just will not bother putting in any effort.  A stubborn bull!  This time however, I have thrown my awe into life here in Spain.  I think I must have realised that this may well have been the last opportunity to get things right. I have to stress, this is the first time, I have ever been this way and it shocks me!
