What if...
What if being present and receptive is, in reality, listening to and sensing our sense of beauty of our body, our feelings in our heart, and our values formed in our mind?
What if cycles of depression are actually normal and ok? Giving us the time we need to process and regroup?
What would our relationships feel like if our emotions were accepted, and even down right welcomed?
What if the goal isn’t to feel love,
but to feel?
To feel our sadness and loneliness.
Our anger, hate. Envy, jealousy. Guilt. Unworthiness.
Fear.
Shame.
What if we could allow ourselves and each other the time and space to feel and process our emotions that call to us to be felt, and surrendered?
To be able to trust. Each other. Ourselves.
To be able to dive deeper into our vulnerable spaces. With support. And tenderness.
With true intimacy.
And gratitude.
Trust
Trust the energy that courses through you.
Trust.
Then surrender even deeper.
Be the energy.
Trust.
And surrender.
Again.
