EXIT PLAN

EXIT PLAN 

Do you have an exit plan?
Sure you do!

The very first move we made was an exit plan.  We began pushing and pushing until we were birthed from our mothers; exiting the warm and caring womb into the big wild unknown.
​
Our lives are a system of exit plans.
We begin school in a societal arranged path of education knowing we will exit at the end of high school with the ceremonial walk across the stage, tassel swinging from our hat, smiles beaming and hands clapping.

We make a choice to enter college with the same exit plan in mind.  We don’t enter believing we will be there forever, we understand there will be an ending.
We have an exit plan.

Life continues this way.
 We enter.  We exit.

We exit jobs.
We exit relationships.
We exit locations.
We strategize for retirement and we exit careers.
We have an exit plan.

At the end of it all we close our eyes knowing this life will end and the biggest exit happens to each of us.  If we are responsible, we have wills, trusts and funeral plans, but do you really have an exit plan? 

This exit plan is more than just documents.  We may not be able to choose what causes our exit, but we can choose how we experience it.
We can choose to travel a path of gratitude and grace as we exit instead of anger, regret and despair.
You see this exit plan should begin with that first push when we left our mother’s womb. Somehow our soul understands as it enters this humanness that it will exit. 

Do not be one of those cranky curmudgeons that grumps and complains about every event, every rain storm, every ache or pain.
Be the kind of person that understands our time here is a gift.
​Open it every day with delight and surprise.
Experience every day with both feet in and full out joy!

Realize that any day, any moment could be your exit time and be ready.  Be filled with joy, gratitude and love for your time here.
Live every day as if it is your exit day.
Have a plan to leave in love.
 And then, (I believe) we begin again.
 We enter.
We exit.
 Life continues this way.
