A real woman, not an ageing female


You cannot deny your soul's calling and expect to live a meaningful life
You cannot replace the love of a soul with the love of an appearance
You cannot replace peace with a comfort zone
You cannot substitute unconditional love with a relationship
You cannot take certainty and call it security

You cannot love another unconditionally
Without loving yourself
But you can learn to love yourself
Through the unconditional love of another

You cannot be fully alive and ignore the pain, the joy and the sorrow
You cannot overcome fear by avoiding the things that scare you
In vulnerability we are conquered by love
In competition we are conquered by power

You cannot silence the yearning for something more
And expect you can ignore it without the universe stepping in to shake things up
Until you are forced to take notice and make a change

You cannot earn love
If you do, it isn't love
Love doesn't hurt
If it does, it isn't love

You cannot hide and ever feel seen
You cannot reveal yourself if you are constantly judged
You cannot heal grief by burying it inside
You cannot stop transmitting pain
If you do not transform from it

You cannot be truly alive
If daily, you merely exist
You cannot be present and enjoy the moment
If you are worried about the future or ashamed of the past.

You cannot savour experiences and fret over what others think of you
You cannot be confident and doubt yourself
You cannot be a mirror for another if your own interior is covered with layers of pretense

You cannot attain what you desire
If you will not step toward it
Into the unknown
Into the fear and the sadness
You cannot heal a broken heart
If you refuse to admit it is broken

You cannot have a tomorrow
Without saying goodbye to yesterday
You cannot feel hope
Without allowing yourself to begin again

When you get stuck

Sometimes you can get stuck in a relationship: You're in a constant state of trigger (fight/ flight/ freeze) instead of feeling intimately connected You've become two old stories instead of two open hearts You're scared or angry most of the time instead of feeling free and authentic It's heavy and complicated instead of light and playful  There is more effort placed on control and strategy than growth and gratitude You are there because of a commitment, because you feel you “should”, not because you want to be.  What can you do? You basically have 3 options: 1. Stay . Continue the slow, painful process of losing yourself in order to keep the relationship. 2. Let it go . Sacrifice your relationship to save your soul. 3. Change . You both have to be willing and capable of growing together. The goal here is to see if you can get back to love without sacrificing your authentic selves in the process. To do this, you must remove the idea of promises, attachment...

Courage is not the absence of fear

"Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear." -George Addair Wholeheartedly believe this. We have two choices in life: be led by fear, or lead with love and courage, trusting that things will unfold and work out just as they should. Maybe not how you planned, but always for the best. Fears will never disappear. But when you make peace with your fears, possibilities will appear. The next time you feel fear, just take the superhero stance! (And do some yoga to quiet the mind.)

Dream

Would you mind dreaming with me a little while longer Because I'm not finished with you yet You tell me not to remember But I don't want to forget It may not be perfect, nor am I, neither are you But you bring me something I can hold on to It helps me surrender It helps me advance And most of all, you already know, It makes my soul dance.
