You know those years where you stumbled so many times you barely thought you’d make it? A fully deep in it, crushing, hard to pull through, holding what feels like everyone and everything. Maybe you were also hit with a bunch of things that most humans don’t like to talk about like we were. Words like addiction, recovery, abortion, miscarriage, job loss, unemployment, infertility, government assistance, depression, sickness, death, grief or relational betrayal.
Words that we often don’t say out loud, let alone share, discuss or expand upon for fear of judgement, shame or making someone else uncomfortable.
And yet we all experience them, because, we are human. All of us. We are all susceptible to faltering, making mistakes, hurting one another and feeling pain.
Last year I had to stand up stronger than I have in a long time. Maybe ever. I wasn’t sure how I would keep standing. But I did. And so have you (I’m sure).
Although I’d like to say every single thing is remedied or band aided or solved or over - we all know that’s not the way it goes. We keep living and experiencing and moving forward as best we can. Knowing more deeply than ever we are *the* one who can make the biggest difference in our own lives. And that it’s almost a guarantee that we will feel pain again.
By becoming curious to what keeps showing up for us (often over and over again) we can begin to finally shift the pattern.
Some truths I am (more) aware of today.
I am soft and I am strong.
I am not responsible for managing or fixing someone else’s emotions.
I want to love and be loved.
I want to see and be seen.
I now understand better that there is no one to be except to be myself right now, just as I am.
Life is all about making mistakes and giving ourselves room to constantly change and grow. Allowing our self to experience joy, creation and expansion through living life.
Be open to the universe.
Be open to life.
Be open to the experience.
Trust your intuition.
Have faith.
(And then say thank you).
I love you. Pass it on.
👍🏼💛🫁💫
