In the end

I want to be the warm, safe haven where you lay your head
That's the thanks for breathing life into my soul, when I thought it all but dead
I want to celebrate the depths we swam together
The empowerment and joy it gave us both
I want to always remember the fierce spark
That lives within us and lights the way.

Maybe it was just a moment
Maybe it's with us forever
It keeps replaying back to me the deepest longings of my soul
And I know, unequivocally, I will no longer endure, simply for the sake of enduring.
But I will give it my all.
I will show up in my rawest form, at my most vulnerable, tentative and free.
That's what this did to me.

Once in a lifetime there's a feeling like you've never known before
You can choose to let it in or simply shut that door
I am not so brave to say I'm unaffected by something so unexpected
I'm not so wise to have no fear of the struggle between safety and intimacy.

But I am awake now. I am in the here and now, and although
I sometimes cannot make a sound
I feel everything, and it's freeing.
It hurts and it pleases and it finds all the reasons.

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.
