Dancing with Hope

-

 

Good morning, Beautiful Soul!

 

This weekend was a revelation—a gentle whisper from our heart to just be, to savor the moments and fill your cup with the soothing elixir of self-care. As you immersed yourself in healing sessions and a soul-stirring sermon on Sunday, profound questions stirred within.

 

The healer's words echoed, asking, "What has it cost you to be out of alignment with who you are meant to be?" A pause, a moment of introspection, and the realization unfurled. It cost you dearly—health and relationships bore the weight of your journey. In the throes of illness, you clung to harmful habits, yearning for better yet reluctant to release the old. The grind of stress, neglect, and self-sacrifice took its toll.

 

But, oh, the transformation! A shift towards self-love, work/life harmony, and prioritizing your well-being emerged. You no longer bear the burdens of everyone's troubles; you've become the guardian of your own joy. A smile graced your reflection—a testament to the battles fought, the struggles endured, and the refusal to quit on yourself. It was a journey of baby steps, each a victory etched in the fabric of your soul.

 

Then, the sermon unfolded another truth—we often block blessings by closing the door to hope, afraid of the sting of disappointment. Your heart resonated with this wisdom, prompting a profound review of disappointments held close. Yet, in the act of listing them, you also unveiled the invaluable learning woven into each experience. Most importantly, you granted yourself the gift of forgiveness.

 

A cascade of realization followed—disappointment arises from rigid expectations. Shifting from fixed expectations to embracing the unfolding experience with trust and openness transforms the narrative. No longer shackled by disappointment, your focus shifts to the fertile ground of hope. Hope, the key that unlocks the doors to blessings waiting to unfold.

 

Darling, we are walking our purpose by faith, embracing newness, and dancing with the experience’s life unfolds. Open-hearted and trusting, we navigate the path, guided by the whispers of our soul. May this journey be adorned with the blossoms of hope and the sweet fragrance of self-love.

 

With love and boundless compassion,

Me

Facing the Rage Within

-
 Today marks a pivotal moment in my journey. I stand at the precipice, facing the rage that has been simmering within me. It's time to confront it head-on. This rage, it's about me. It's about feeling like I should be further along, like I've endured so much and yet still find myself grappling with life. I'm tired of feeling unworthy, bored, and stuck in a cycle of misery despite the abundance of good around me. I'm enraged by my own expectations, by the relentless feeling of failure and the constant questioning of my worth. It's infuriating to sit in this place of stagnation, to play small and be the victim when deep down, I know there's a version of me ready to break free, ready to shine. Playing small may have offered a sense of control, but it's suffocating me. The version of me that's ready to go all in, to embrace my gifts and strengths, is pushing to the surface. She's done with waiting for the perfect moment, for everything to fall in...

What are you hungry for?

-
  Dear Me, Do you ever just ask yourself what you are hungry for? It's a question that often gets lost in the shuffle of daily life. We move through our days with gratitude, acknowledging the blessings we have, yet there's this persistent yearning deep within us. It's a hunger, a craving for something more. Sometimes it's as simple as a hug or a heartfelt "I love you," but more often than not, it's a deeper need that we struggle to identify. As we reflect on our journey, we may come to realize that our needs were often neglected in our formative years. We learned to prioritize the needs of others above our own, becoming proficient caretakers but forgetting how to care for ourselves. It's no wonder we find ourselves unsure of how to tap into our own needs now. Instead of addressing our hunger with mindfulness and intention, we often seek temporary fixes - indulging in food, drink, shopping, or overworking. These distractions may momentarily fill t...

Tired of the Fight: Finding Freedom in Self-Love

-
Dear Me, If I could be brutally honest with you, I'd say this: I'm tired. Truly, deeply exhausted. It's like my soul itself is weary, worn out from the constant battles, the endless cycles of giving everything I have only to watch it all crash down, forcing me to pick up the pieces and start over again. I'm just tired, you know? Tired of the fight. Tired of waking up every day and chasing after survival like it's some elusive prey. But then, in the midst of this exhaustion, it hits me like a thunderbolt: what I'm really craving, what I truly desire above all else, is freedom. I long for ease, for that elusive break that never seems to come. I feel like I'm wandering in the wilderness, just like the Israelites did after leaving Egypt. When will I finally reach my promised land? And yet, even when they reached it, they had to fight tooth and nail just to hold onto it. And then, in a moment of clarity, it dawns on me: my prison isn't some external force hol...
