I can feel the realigning of focus within me. I don’t yet really know what my writing and practice will look like on a daily basis but I feel excited rather than worried; delighted rather than fearful. This is a huge shift from last year at this time when I was feeling the uncertainty of transition and my committed practice of self love and blog felt like such a crazy leap in the dark. I mean, practicing self love is scary at the best of times but doing it right out in the open was unprecedented. I leapt but was, quite frankly, terrified I would quit, falter or make a complete fool of myself (especially since I launched the blog on April Fool’s Day). I did feel like quitting; but didn’t. I did falter; but asked for help and guidance. I did make a complete fool of my self; a fool for Love’s purpose. I do feel change and shift within me but more like a beginning rather than an ending. And more importantly, I am not afraid of any of these feelings. I feel a full partner with Holy Spirit rather than a lowly servant. I feel at peace yet empowered; joyful but looking forward to serious work, mostly I feel grateful for this last twelvemonth has been a springboard for my next chapter in continuing my practice of Self Love.
“Witness the Dawn”
If I am going to witness the dawn
I’d better open the window.
Be yourself,
it’s what you came here
to do.
Expect Grace
Extend love
Be your self
Open up
Let go
Breathe
Listen
