I’ve checked out early on in this life
Living in the stars
My mind a battle field
My body a wasteland of scars
I am done hiding
It’s time for me to settle into these bones
Get comfortable
As I say hello to infinite possibilities
A brand new home
A new way of being
A celebration of all I can be
Wild and carefree
In service purposefully
Aaaah… Isn’t it just beautiful when the universe conspires to bring such a beautiful piece into one’s awareness, just as one is experiencing the exact same sentiments… Pure synchronicity…!
Yes, dear ones… This is me, fully checked in, with arms and heart wide open, affirming that time for hiding is over…!
- It’s time to be fully in these bones, this skin, this body, this human form, as I in gratitude serve as mere humble vessel to birth a conscious business (my child in this life!) into the world…
- It’s time for me to step into purpose more fully in wonderfully weird ways that make sense to me, and that I know will serve, even in the smallest of ways…
- It’s time to allow my passions, dreams and gifts speak louder than any fears I might have…
- It’s time, now more than ever before, to be in service purposefully…
It’s quite simply just time…! I have witnessed and experienced over recent years that we are often conditioned away from our intrinsic uniqueness, our freedom to enjoy a beautiful life, and our true impactful power. But all is not lost… Despite conditioning, and despite how deeply our uniqueness, freedom and power may seem to be buried, these are never completely gone. It remains ours to claim. Yes, there might admittedly be a bit of digging needed to uncover these aspects, but it is certainly always there for those who would like to access it.
I invite you to consider:
- How would your life be different if you had a deep knowing of your unique soul signature, and you had the courage to embrace it fully…?
- Would you experience more ease if you were able to freely accept and allow the beauty of life to flow, and then rejoice in it freely…?
- How liberating could it be to step fully into your full authentic power…?
Just imagine the beauty of flow in your life, as you express yourself uniquely, and step into your true power in every moment!
I’ve been called to looking into this a bit deeper…
UNIQUE
No two snowflakes are alike… Each is beautifully unique, with its own intricacies, patterns and shape. Delicate and somewhat fragile, yet each also exceptionally perfect in its own right, with an innate strength beyond comprehension.
Are we as humans not the same…?!?
I believe wholeheartedly that each one of us is magnificently unique with unique gifts to offer the world. This view is shared not to flame egos and create separation, but instead is shared as a reminder for us each to view our true being with awe.
Within our uniqueness lies our divine purpose, ever-ready for us to pursue, uncover, express, and simply BE…! Accepting and embracing this uniqueness results in flow, ease, peace, success and flourishing in your life. Avoidance or denial of the quality results in stuckness, turmoil, disappointment, unhappiness and disillusionment.
For much of my life, I simply blended in, conformed with the norm, went to great lengths to fit in, and hid myself from the world to not be seen. In this process, I diminished some key-parts of me. I send love and gratitude to this, as great learnings stemmed from this part in my life. I would not change a single thing…!
There was however always an underlying ‘niggle’, a fascinating pull to simply be me, all of me, in all my uniqueness… It was when I started stepping into this unique essence that I flowed more easily with life.
Perhaps time for some introspection:
- Have you ever given thought to what your very unique essence or gift could be…?
- If you have an inkling of what this unique quality could be, have you mustered the courage to live it out fully…?
- Do you agree it could be empowering to step into your uniqueness fully…?
Dear ones, finding this quality, your unique essence, and discovering ways to BE it every day, is easier than you could ever imagine. Simply believe that this could be true for you too!
LIFE
“Life is really simple, but men insist on making it complicated.” Thank you for this truth, Confucius!
I openly share: viewing life as a complicated problem to be solved, has been my go-to approach for a large part of my existence…
- What to be done, by when to meet certain milestones, how uncomfortably tight I can make deadlines to amplify the feeling of ‘doing’.
- How to project out into the world who I thought I was, and be who I thought people needed me to be.
- Excessive self-imposed pressure, severe burn-outs, illnesses, being for most part quite unhappy but wearing a mask to hide this from the world.
- Severe self-deprecating on so many levels, sacrificing my own beliefs, and trading it in for the truth of others just to be accepted.
Complication upon complication, all self-created! Drama, pressures, disillusionment, perfection, depression, projections – all-in-all FEAR. Fear of living life fully and finding reasons not to… well… LIVE! Insanity, right…?!?
I feel exceptionally blessed to have had all these experiences, dear ones. From a space of self-compassion, I also have come to learn that throughout my life, I’ve done the best with what I knew and with what I had available to me at those particular moments.
A realisation dawns: all these past ‘ways of being’ laid a firm foundation for all I am today, and who I am to become in this life… My heart carries only gratitude!
I made a conscious decision to shift, dear ones. From doing to BEING, from perfection to PEACE, from duty to PLAY, from hustling to ALIGNING, from reacting to life to FULLY EMBRACING LIFE, from fear to LOVE…
What am I learning from this? Life flows with simplicity if I allow it. Life is grace-filled, if I am open to experiencing its unfolding. Life is filled with beauty, if I am willing to see and experience it.
Dear ones, accepting your life, in all its simplicity, grace and beauty, and allowing it to flow with, through and in you, is entirely possible. So is simply living and rejoicing in the beauty of life.
EMPOWERMENT
Our point of power is always HERE, in the present moment. Not in past events, hurts, mistakes… Not in past achievements, milestones… Not in future plans, wishes, fantasies… Not in who we would like to become… Here and now, is our power…!
For most of my life I was either stuck in the past, or obsessed about some future event. Living in the moment was not at all something I was familiar with. With this came great unhappiness, pain, sadness. Past ‘mistakes’ looped over in my mind endlessly. I relived amazing past moments to death, missing out on amazing moments right here. I would fantasize about a future event whilst procrastinating action. Many grand ways of how a future event could go wrong were made up in my mind.
Never was I simply HERE…
Since shifting more into present moment living (still much to learn and practice!) I have experienced the magic of simply BEING… This practice alone has brought about such amazing self-empowerment that I can only stand in awe…
I believe it is entirely possible to become more present and step more fully into your power, with the following generally serving as my guideline:
- Introspect on who you are at the deepest level.
- Connect deeply with yourself, or your higher power, or with a trusted guide, or with nature.
- Direct your action in this moment to something that brings you close to your dreams and your full self.
Indeed, there is so much power right here…!
Dear ones, you could be free from past and future in this moment. Pull your power back to you right here and now, and step into it fully. Imagine how empowering this could be!
Oh, what an exciting journey we are on, dear ones, as we embrace our unique soul signature, rejoice in the beauty of this life, and step fully into your power.
Do join in, if it calls!
Love, blessings and empowerment always…!
