Following Energy to a Happy Birthday

by Bonnie on November 18, 2009

Denny & I spent a week in New York City for my birthday. We had a blast; enjoying music, dancing, theater, good food, the sights, and more.

Usually we prefer quiet, peaceful vacations in beautiful, natural settings. Like whale watching in Hawaii or wandering small Italian hill towns.

Not big cities!

So how did we end up in New York City? By following our energy.

We considered many, many options for this vacation. But the one which was most “lights on” (energizing and enlivening) for both of us was New York.

I couldn’t believe it. This didn’t make sense. My mind told me “You two don’t like big city vacations. You’ll regret it if you chose NYC. You won’t enjoy it there. You’ll wish you’d gone some place else.”

Before I learned to follow my “lights” I would have ignored my energy and listened to my head. This time, given years of practicing “lights on” living, I chose to follow my energy.

And off we went to the very big city. Where we had a delightful, delicious time.

Want more joy and fun in your life? Follow your lights. Let that energy be your life navigation system.
