I am grateful.
With them, I see my power, through their's, with fresh eyes. I see - and acknowledge - the soft underbelly of my being … which gives way to lay name and title to the disquiet, discomfort, ache and pain that I'd rather let rest, undisturbed. Despite the "Rather Not" that I sometimes cling to in these dark realms, I delight - with reluctance - in the names and titles that allow me to carry them into the light of day, and nurture a positive and intimate relationship with these cardinal shadows hidden in the softs spots, the wounds, and the scars of my essence.
I am grateful.
Today I make space for gratitude, deep and flowing, painful and life-giving, melancholy and joyous … gratitude that is conceived and birthed in shadows of blood most sacred.
I am grateful.
Peace.

Beautifully written! It has hit a chord in me. Thank you!
Beautiful post, Rosemari...very honest and thought provoking. It is so much easier to hide our discomfort and pain, to not let ourselves feel it...bringing it out in the open lets us see that there is nothing to fear and quite often, the discomfort dissolves.
Thank you for giving us cause to think :-)
Beautiful post! Thank you! Theresa
Yes, I agree. Sharing our "withinness" with other women can be liberating.
Of all the things I have in my life for which I am grateful, this is one which is lacking. Your post makes me realize how much I miss it, and need to find ways to regain these connections.
Be well,
Jan
