Dark walk through the Jungle

Dark walk through the Jungle

It’s funny…how sometimes I forget how strong I am. I was just remembering how one night, Rob and I were walking back to the place we were staying in the jungle in Belize. It was an hour walk, it was dark and we didn’t have a flash light. (Yeah, neither of us were ever very good at planning…)

So here we are walking carefully trying not to fall on rocks on the road that we can’t see because it is pitch black and Rob says to me…’I wonder if there are any Jaguars around here’…a minute later we hear this growl…and was I thinking…’You’ve got to be kidding me’…

I somehow figured out it was a dog and said…’Hi Sweety, awww you are scared, it’s ok love, you’re ok. You’re ok…’
I realized that he was probably as scared as we were and needed a little reassuring…We kept walking and the crisis was averted…

I didn’t really think of it in the moment, but that was pretty bad ass…

 

Changing Leaves

Changing Leaves

Autumn has always been my favorite time of year. Walking through the forest of changing trees…I am reminded this is what the leaves actually look like. In the summer and spring they are covered in green, but come fall they drop the green and show their true colors…so beautiful and vibrant.

Maybe this is true for us too… in our youth we are covered in green, when we are learning how to live life. We are protected and fed by this newness…then one day it’s time for us to drop the green and show who we are underneath. The green slowly fades away until we are no longer protected or sheltered by the green, but uncovered, showing our brilliance.. We are now in the world being us.

To the outside observer it seems to happen all at once, one day were one way and the next we are something very different…but to our inner being, to our Divine Soul Essence…we know that this beautiful, colorful Being is who we were all along…

What if you are stronger than you thought?

What if you are stronger than you thought?

What if the things you have been thinking were reversed?

What if the point where you thought you were the weakest and failing, you were actually more courageous than you have ever been.

What if you just think you are confused, but you actually do know, you just haven’t been willing to make the choice that would change everything.

What if you think you are at the mercy of other people and are powerless, but in reality you have the power to change everything in an instant.

We play these games in our mind to make us feel like we don’t have total control of our lives…but we do. We can choose in every moment what we will focus on and who and what we will give our energy to. These choices shape our lives and create our future.

What are you unwilling to know, that if you knew it would change your life, your living and your reality? Would you be willing to know it now?

 

I Am a Part of You

I Am a Part of You

Our paths might be different right now…
Maybe we will meet again in many years or not at all this lifetime…but my love will always be by your side…
You are a part of me and I am a part of you.
You have been and will always be in my soul…
