Grounded in Chaos

Faced with monumental life changes Nezneski had no choice but to weave a new life. This story about rising to the challenge of forced change and isolation is prescient and timely. Thrown into sudden life-altering changes trigger chaos turmoil and deep emotions. There is hope and unexpected blessings in change. There is life on the other side of chaos. Facing adversity head-on Nezneski learned to love again and experience joy. Driving near Savannah it hit me. I went through big life changes when I was in NorthCarolina. It never would have happened if I had been living anywhere else. Idont know what it is about North Carolina. But if you want to throw your lifeinto utter upheaval move to North Carolina. But batten down the hatches andclose the storm shutters.You are in for an emotional hurricane.In what felt like an instant Nezneski lost her home life savings a thirty-four-year marriage-andconsidered ending it all. Prayer meditation therapy Reiki journaling andguardian angels kept her afloat. The Marines jogging shirtless on the beach byher house didnt hurt either. Thank God for the shirtless Marine. This isher journey from turmoil to tranquility despair to self-care chaos toclarity. Be here now. This is mindfulness at its most reductive essence. My greatest hope isthat others can benefit from my story. In addition to loving myself I havelearned that I am never alone.
