Stuck in the mud

Get out of the mud!

As you travel through your divorce or custody journey, it can become so easy to keep re-hashing that old stuff. Why do we do this?

Humans have this propensity to hold onto the old. I always think of my dog and how good she is at staying in the here and now and not worrying about yesterday. She looks forward to her walks, her toys, her trips in the car and her dinners. She is right here right now and looks to the next fun thing that comes her way. We always hear about how we should take lessons from animals but then we forget, or just ignore what we see, or pretend we know better. Animals have amazing instincts that they follow without fail. They know!

So next time you find yourself stuck in the mud of your past, I mean really stuck as in….you cannot pull your boot or foot out and are not going anywhere, ask yourself why are you even there? Why did you step into the mud in the first place????

Time to get out of the mud!
