Most recently I have been going through a journey of graceful blooming. My little butterfly wings have begun to unwrap from around me. I am slowly shaking free from within my chrysalis. In this moment my metamorphosis is taking place, and I am grateful. So grateful I can feel my heart fluttering lightly, waking with deeper opening. The vulnerability is unnerving, but it’s easier to be unafraid as I release the unnecessary chatter. Through the repetition of lesson, I now know it best serves me to sit quietly. Letting the breath wash over me. I engage my roots. They dig deeper. With every release I reach a little bit higher up into space. Someday I will reach that moon, and perhaps I will choose to go a little farther. I find laughter to be the most bio-efficient fuel. I prescribe smiles. Use 100 times daily, minimum. See results immediately.
“The best people possess a feeling for beauty. The courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice. Ironically, their virtues make them vulnerable; they are often wounded sometimes destroyed.”
*Ernest Hemingway *
This quote has been sticking with me all week, and so I am called to share it with you. It’s easy to get swept up in the chatter, and forget what we came here to do. Other time’s it’s too difficult to admit what it is we truly want. We fear failure. We fear heart-break. Unaware our fears attract failure upon ourselves. I am guilty as charged, more often than not. However, I relentlessly refuse to give up; because as I uncover my failures I will discover my success. I release my journey to the guidance of my angels. I ask them to be with me, and I tell them what it is I am called to do. They talk back. I can hear them in the stillness of my soul. I realize the power of my intentions, and so I meditate. Releasing my heart song into the universe, with this great belief burning deep within my gut. I know my dreams will continue to unfold before me.
