Sometimes we can run away
From the thoughts we don’t want to face
Sometimes we can seem very busy…important…productive…
Yet all the while deep down knowing what we’re avoiding.
Sometimes facing thought is the most difficult of all
For there’s no distraction
Nothing to run from
When we are deeply honest
Yet every time I reach that place
Every time I finally arrive and am willing to face
All the thoughts I’m wanting to avoid
All the thoughts I would rather not admit still intimidate
All the thoughts that seem so unsolvable now
It’s there….in that moment of ‘but how’
That I remember to turn yet again
To the where I’ve turned many times in fact
To the knowing of what’s truly governing me
Me and all of humanity
And that I can begin there and ask for that Love to show
Just right now exactly where …..and how….I am to go
and this helps me to remember that very truth
I am never alone
And neither are you.
There’s a constant presence and I would defend true Being
Steering each one of our moments….
Defining our why, when, how and doing so clearly.
Sometimes it simply takes a willingness and humility
To stop believing we are doing wrong the womanhood we’ve been privileged to experience…
Sometimes that’s the only thought that we need to face
The belief ‘I’m doing life wrong‘
Which tries to steer us all over the place.
And then of course if we admit this truth
That we aren’t doing or being womanhood wrong…
This leaves us with something else that we must be held accountable to:
That in fact our choices are adorably okay
That in fact our individuality is not and never was a mistake
That in fact we can and must and need to be
Our tender
loving
strong
innocent
courageous
me.
Here’s to the willingness to face thought
And the courage to deny the belief ‘I’m doing her wrong.’
Here’s the strength that stands day after day
And doesn’t allow the trends of culture influence our ways.
Here’s to the determination to sculpt the vision we see…
And here’s to the courage to swerve not when opinions call us a friek.
Here’s to the compassion and forgiveness whenever we see others
Caving to the lures of ‘society says.’
Here’s to the pressing on being true
For the generations unborn need us to…
My heart with yours….
The poem above was uttered spontaneously from my heart with yours after praying and meditating…
If you find you run constantly from the need to face thought…
If you find yourself not knowing what to do when you are trying to silence fear…
If you seek to stop avoiding your tender you…
I welcome you connect and share and I’ll offer what supports and helps me to…

Here’s to the willingness that doesn’t run
That is accountable for each motive thought by thought…
Deep respect and warm hugs for this thought journey...
