Grief is Itself a Medicine

Terri — Fri, 27 Jan 2017 00:10:16 +0000

I guess when all is said and done, maybe what's changed is a deepening, a realization that if wisdom does come with age, it's more because you realize one day that there's not much new in the world. Hopefully you grow in knowledge, in patience and kindness, learn to open your heart more and practice love. But for the most part, a lot stays the same, even as it constantly changes.

Happy Happy…

You are only confined by the walls you build yourself. Tear them down and dance in the rain, because the cost of not following your heart now is spending the rest of your life wishing you had. I learned a long time ago the longest journey is the few inches between the head and the heart, but you can always start now, and I promise you will find your way. No one else can make that journey for you, nor can they save you from it. But there are many of us who will walk with you, side by side, helping you be your own hero.

Abundant Harvest

A gentle reminder if you are in that place today: You are not responsible for your parents, or any other adults other than yourself. It's ok to let people learn to work out their own relationships, their own karma, their own path. There's nothing "spiritual" about putting up with abusive behavior or nonsense, and you can be a good person and still say no. Really, your job is to come into alignment with your own Divine Presence, to know the bounds of what you can and cannot do, instead of being overly responsible and then feeling helpless or hopeless when you can't fix it and then are blamed by others. Your real responsibility is to develop your own higher state of consciousness, and in that you'll always learn that by letting go of needing to help or fix it, that you can just teach love instead. When in doubt, trust your love and teach love, because really, that's all you are, love made visible in flesh and bone.

Hi. Yeah, we’re still here

You have this one life. How do you want to spend it? Running after people who can't see how amazing you are? Trying another diet? Hating yourself? Apologizing or regretting? Forget it. Be brave, like you know you are under all that pain. Believe in yourself. Trust your love. Do what feels right, what feeds your soul. Make yourself proud. Go for it. You can do it. I'm already proud of you, I already believe in you. You were wild and hopeful once. Don't let them tame that out of you.

• What is my next challenge in daring to be human?
• How can I open myself to the beauty of nature and human nature?
• Who or what do I need to learn to love next? And next? And next?
• What is the new creation that wants to be born in and through me?
