Love is my Becoming.

I was trying to write this last night as it popped into my head, but suddenly it was all erased. I went to bed frustrated. While waking up, out it came. Gentle, and moving, this talk to myself.❤️

When I rose from ashes to rebuild;
Vulnerability and Strength came together
as the odd everlasting couple.
I was humble, and brave, and birthed Hope, and Passion
like any other navigating and narrating parent.

They’re all a part of me, and I would guard these qualities
with determination, with c o m p a s s i o n, with authenticity.
While failing and trying again,
Anxiety and fear moved in

_{I allowed them to be only temporary}

While showing up,
I met doubt

_{Learned to choose my friends carefully}

And while succeeding,
I learned to dance, to laugh, to feel free
so that I may remember that
I’m OK
I’m Good Enough
I’m Worth it
even while losing. See?

I learned the need to breathe, and rest, at the standstill’s.
I learned to Flow, be aware, be alive.
I found Passion - the fundamental puzzle piece of the game.
And I b e c a m e
Hope.

Dreams sow seeds, and through the realignment of opportunities;
passion and hope nourished it all to come together;
to have my road rise up to meet me.
I harvested what I sowed,
remembering that any seed can root,
and any seed can grow,
which was why Mindfulness and Kindness were essential techniques,
while tending to my crops,
but also by tending to myself.

And Love?

Love was, is, and will always be, the Tree of Light
the guidance,
the very Force of my Nature
while Becoming a part of it

Good morning from Spain,
First read of yours and I found it interesting.
Love in the end is the most rewarding and forgiving of all.
As we mature and understand ourselves better
So many things come to light.
Staying open to the possibility is ever so important!

this is the thing about growth isn't it...when it happens it can become exponential, leading to chain reaction and the blossoming of love
