The choice.

4/22/2023

 

​You can rebirth yourself.
Renounce vows to old versions.
I AM handles I WAS.

​So wipe clean, the haunting dust.
Begin the new thing.
And stop looking back, 
half-hoping for an excuse
to re-embrace an old suffering,
simply because you know it so well.
That is the worst kind of intimacy.

Instead, level-up the love within you,
which will level-up the love around you.
And will also, likely, stir up some stuff.

Ground and anchor in love, all while knowing
it has to be re-chosen, again and again and again​.
Because love gets dropped so frequently,
so reconnection must be made.

As far as I can tell, THAT is the game.
The journey.
The lesson.
The opportunity.
The invitation.
The test.
The point.
The choice.

How Are You? An Existential Journal

The question "How are you?" is profound.

But it has been watered down to a synonym for "Hello." Forced or fake responses of obligated okayness are expected.

The question prompts an answer that begins with "I AM ________." Many times each day, you are invited to speak the most powerful statement that can be spoken of yourself.

For a change, take your time and tell your truth.

Love is where we come from.   Life is finding our way back.
Be sovereign in your thoughts, and mindful in your actions.
