How precious is life?
It’s easy to forget how incredibly miraculous it is.
When you get stuck in your own pain, grief, loss or narratives you can’t truly appreciate the beauty that is life. Everything in this world is interconnected and yet it’s so easy to forget that. I have observed how stuck I’ve become in my own little world and whilst I’m sure I’m not the only one, I don’t like what it has done to my experiences. I also recognise that because of my mental health I’ve not had the capacity to pour beauty and joy into the wider consciousness. I’ve needed healing and solitude in order to lick my wounds and regain perspective.
But I’m conscious that I’ve now reached a point where I need to regroup and rebalance my heart so that I can reconnect with others and with mother earth and all her children. I don’t want to be in my own little world and limit myself from being open and connected. When you forget that you’re connected to everything around you, you take for granted the impact you can have on your surroundings and also the impact it has on you. Your ego has a play day when you become guarded, it uses the opportunity to feed you false and limiting beliefs. The human condition is so strange and self-destructive, that is if you forget about the Soul that is sitting there waiting to be noticed.
I’ve been reflecting a lot on what I need to do to pour more love and joy back into greater consciousness. The first step is letting myself to just BE, to just allow my heart to feel what it needs to and to soak up the beauty that is around me. I can’t change what has been and I can’t change what has been lost. I can’t undo loss, I can’t undo grief or pain, I can’t pretend it doesn’t exist. I have come to realise over the past couple of months that there is literally no point to carrying the weight of pain from our past. It’s gone, done and dusted; so choose to put down what you no longer need to carry with you. Staying angry at what has been isn’t going to fix anything. There is no Ctrl+Alt+Delete function in life.
What there is though is the opportunity to learn and regroup, to grow and to pivot. To connect with the consciousness that is around us and to start by filling our own cup so that we can pour out into the world the love and beauty we want to receive. It all starts with you. Love yourself so that you can BE love for others.
Love Always,
