"We cultivate love when we allow our most vulnerable and powerful selves to be deeply seen and known, and when we honor the spiritual connection that grows from that offering with trust, respect, kindness and affection." Brene Brown
While dealing with my own issues of shame rooted in childhood trauma, I did not believe that I was especially chosen by God for some star performance. Nor did I believe that I was necessarily paying off karma from some horrible previous life. What I did believe was shame, while it may have triggered hibernation, it also led me onto an inward path of further discovery.
Gravitating towards excessive reading and writing my inward trek became lengthy. Characters were a part of my lesson plans and thus understanding and recognizing behaviors led me to questions regarding purpose. As layers of religious traditions or social etiquette were readily available, I continued the lonely yearning for answers seemingly unavailable.
Testing the outer world with my ingrown philosophies, I found mentors and teachers who taught me with kindness and inspiration. Moving forward once again, I learned to trust and respect the oneness of all peoples. Spirituality has shown me the sprinkling of stars that have always been with me. It has sifted the importance out of the past and applied the need for the present. It is on this stretch I have learned to be aligned and prepared to transition, while my heart gratefully embraces the light.
