Poetry is Courting Me

I have always loved to listen to poetry. The sounds of the words performed by talented artists

Shifts.

Fundamental. Life altering.

Shifts.

Absolutes

There is a comfort in absolutes. A sureness, a universal truth.

We can also lie to ourselves about absolutes. We Hhhhhmmmmmmm convincingly program our minds to look for supporting evidence for our beliefs. Defining a belief as a thought we keep telling ourselves, we can see how easy it is to assign absolutes to our own beliefs.

Here’s the thing about absolutes, they will be tested. We are presented with the opportunity to challenge our beliefs each day. We make a million little choices to double down on our beliefs.

Align

Hustle is out. Alignment is in.

Hustle comes from a place of lack. From a place of proving your worth with hard work. You don’t have to prove your worth. You are worthy of abundance. It is your birthright.

Practice

My life is a practice. A continuous application of intentional momentum.

That shit is exhausting. And also liberating. And dark. And funny, belly laugh funny. And hard. And easy.

She is a dear person and I enjoy spending the hour with her every two weeks. We have wonderful conversations and in another life might have been very good friends.

For the last ten weeks, she has been late for every appointment. My time was not being honored. I was experiencing irritation and frustration for a service I pay for.

The Merry Season!

This time of year is my favorite. The holidays, the gathering. The sense of goodness. I love it all!

This year, I have made some changes. I have a list going with dates and things to be done. It has been delightful. I’m ready and on track to reach my goal of having Christmas done by December 15th. 

Root Chakras and Periods

Today, there was whisper. Honor the root chakra was the call. I answered the call.

In my way.

I added red fruit and root vegetables to my shopping list. I did a root chakra yoga practice, outside

Remembering

I forgot who I was.

I spent time remembering.

Only to forget again.

I’m remembering.

Slowly.

Again.
