Release your fears and doubts, child of the universe.
The stars and angels support you.
When the world is dark, your inner light shines bright.
Life is a rollercoaster of experiences and emotions driven by the highest of highs and the lowest of lows.
It can be excruciating to feel so deeply.
Heartache and pain contrast liberation and ecstasy.
From a spiritual point of view, your soul chose to get on this ride. I suggest this perspective to you as I do with my clients, ‘How does it feel to go through life knowing your soul chose this curriculum for your personal growth?’
To grow.
To expand.
Your soul is hungry for experiences and emotions that nudge you into alignment.
The depth of the darkness and shadows you feel also open the limitless love and joy you can feel.
As you work on yourself and reach the next level in your growth, don’t be surprised if you feel joy and sadness at the same time.
As we evolve and let go of our past self, we mourn who we were.
It’s normal to grieve over the past you, yet still grow into who you are now.
You are allowed to change.
Your identity isn't fixed
The past you that put up with bad behaviour, that gave so much without return, that always needed something or someone to feel complete, that was blind to what was unfolding before your eyes, that self- sabotaged and the past you that deserved better not only from yourself but those around you.
It’s normal to grieve over the past you and to love the past you, yet still grow into who you are now. You are allowed to change; your identity isn’t fixed.
Tell me, beautiful soul, are you exhausted from carrying all those labels and stories that have defined who you are?
You are not your trauma.
You are not your illness.
What you’ve been through is valid.
No matter how bad someone else has it, no matter what anyone else says, no matter what anyone else thinks, no matter who believes you, you are resilience beaming through.
You are the bravery that roars.
You are the wisdom books can’t contain.
You are the light that continues to shine.
You are the power beyond measure.
Shine on
People may be jealous of your light, but they won’t be jealous of your journey through darkness.
Never let another’s darkness impact your light.
Some people will not see you not because you don’t shine, but because they do not want to acknowledge your light.
For some your light will be too bright and that’s okay.
