Our awareness only expand as far as we’re willing to stretch it.
Growing up, we often tend to force and control situations, looking for approval or validation which brings us to question,
• “why is life so damn hard” ..
• “why doesn’t anyone get me”..
• “why am I even here”.. why why why?!!
Very few say hold on kid, let’s just breathe and figure some sh!t out ok! You kinda find yourself just rolling with it until the wheels fall off.
When we are faced with crisis in our lives and choose to prosper through that adversity, we are taking on an heroic journey into the unknown to reveal something within us that we never even knew existed. Following my bliss into the unknown is where I discovered:
☆ my truth,
☆ my gifts,
☆ my dreams,
☆ my passion
Following my bliss brought me to feel what love truly is. Following your bliss in itself takes a whole lotta courage especially when things seem so uncertain. It’s not about what happened to us or what is happening to us though, it’s about perception and what we, as powerful beings, choose to do with it.
That’s the sh!t that no one talks about.
I remember going for a second opinion, sitting in the Dr’s waiting area feeling anxious, fearful and nervous with a smidge of hope that I’d been misdiagnosed before.. I could sense the seriousness of the staff and everyone else in the midst of their own sh!t too. My name finally got called to enter the Dr’s office. As I walked down the passage, I suddenly became aware of my sweaty hands and dry throat. I hadn’t realized that in that specific moment I had given my power away to fear. After my examination, the Dr then gave me his version of the “death sentence”, the “voodoo curse”, the “prognosis” – whatever you want to call it – I felt an enormous amount of rage and fear coming up when he ended the appointment with, “go home and start putting plans in place”. Dr’s don’t realize how much fear the tonality of their words instill in someone in that moment. How much hurt and lives infact they will spare if they actually showed compassion for another human. If they actually worked WITH their patients to get better.
No, no-one talks about that sh!t either.
When I chose to believe in possibilities as opposed to planning my funeral, when I chose to follow my bliss as opposed to follow opinions of others, when I chose to listen to the power within as opposed to giving my power away.. everything started changing.
Everything! . .
▪︎ As my body started changing,
▪︎My priorities and interests started changing..
▪︎And as that happened, relationships started changing.
It’s been said that whatever is no longer a vibrational match to you, will automatically fall away. The problem is that we go back to try and fix things because change is unfamiliar and uncomfortable so we crave the familiar.
No-one talks about how hard that sh!t is.
Throughout life you meet people who will only support you if it’s in line with their way of being. The moment you go beyond their realm of perception, choosing an unknown path ‐ a path that perhaps work for you but not them.. you kinda find yourself alone on that path for a while. That’s ok, as dark and lonely as it may seem, the right resources will be revealed to you.. keep going!
When alternative methods as my approach to healing was revealed to me, I was referred to as an ostrich because it was unheard of at the time and therefore sadly still today, unacceptable by many. This brought me to experience what “disrupting the soil” felt like – going against the “norm”.
And then you meet people who will support your “chosen” path without judgment, who will ask you how they can add any value without projecting their beliefs onto you, who will offer their time and energy cos they believe in you, who will cheer you on when you stumble… That’s the people you need in your corner.
No-one talks about this sh!t.
Several years ago, a friend of mine came by to check up on me, and as she’s making herself at home, we got into such a deep conversation about life and healing. I remember discussing how sometimes as you journey through life, the people you thought would be your greatest support turns out not to be and as you go on, you meet new people who have been waiting to meet you too. Here’s the thing though, it is so liberating when you finally start feeling and knowing your worth – you’ll find it hard to be around people who don’t. That much I do know, for sure.
I always say, don’t define me by my condition, define me by my intention. So often when people see me, they create a perception of what they think I am and therefore, treat me accordingly. That is absolutely ok because other people’s opinions and perceptions was one of the many layers I have been growing through. And because of my intention to believe in myself and therefore possibilities, I am experiencing a supernatural strength that is far greater than me.
This sh!t, people do not talk about.
I find that one of the greatest journeys in life is remembering who we truly are. For me that is:
☆ going against the naysayers – not from an egotistical point of view but from a deep sense of finally feeling and accepting my worth,
☆☆ overcoming myself and remembering that I am love,
☆☆☆ trusting the process.
And that’s the sh!t that no one talks about.
P.S.. We always meet each other where we are in life. Follow YOUR bliss.
With so much love
