Mindfully Blooming

  A concealed yes through actions and touch But I’m still confused, precious time going by.  Patient I’ve been -I know you love me back- But I can’t shake the idea that you might break my heart.  Your walls are up and mine went higher up When you said nothing, when your silence made  A puncture in my weeping heart.  Still, I want to trust in the journey, the universe and our path. I’ll try to let go, I’ll breathe and allow,  I know whatever is meant to happen Will run its course regardless of the dark downs.

Someday you'll realise  That the confusing shade of grey  Was actually pure white And that the truth you didn't want to acknowledge  Was in front of you all along shining bright.  Cry it out, get it out Let your broken heart weep out, Shrivel down but then stand up. You were not blind, you just believed in love.  You wanted to live life as us   But he fearfully froze numb; He retrieved into his aloof mind  And left you hanging in the painful dark.

  And I choose To wake up and smile To meditate and breathe It is not easy some days But worth it always is;  The birds that welcome the day Encourage me to get out of bed, The mat on the floor Invites me to stretch and move.  Keep going, one day at a time,  Move your body, smile a nd allow The magic of the universe  To unfold in front of your path. 

  A bubble ready to burst t hough not without Dancing in the air f or few more breaths.  The beauty that I've lived and the  Sights that I've blissfully seen;  How lucky I am to have lived this life.  Call it what you want but all the shades In the sky were a glorious classroom  That I am soon leaving behind.  The lesson that we eternally overcomplicate  Is undeniably simpler than we thought:  All that matters is kindness and love;  The soft smile, the hand extended,  The open door, the bursting heart.  All those preciously unique minutes,  Make them count,  Embody kindness, embody love. 

  “ Rituals make the invisible connections that make life meaningful, visible. ”   Casper ter Kuile ~ Undeniably grounding,  Soothing my heart and soul,  I breathe deeply when embracing the practices That bring serenity to my days' ticking tocks.  Knowing not how to navigate certain lows  But reassuringly I stand in my truth If I hold close to my being  What brings me peace and joy.  The rituals that have allowed me to breathe,  The practices that have helped me be;  The simplicity, the pause, the  Sacred connection to my soul. 

  To be understood. To soar, to rise.  To be loved.  To be cherished. To be celebrated And truly seen in all our light.  The essence of life, To fulfil our purpose,  To graciously walk our path,  To lift others and deeply love.  To be fully us.

Poem that flowed through me and was inspired by the speakers in the  Almost 30 Winter Camp  Event in January 2022 . Nothing left consciously behind All the lessons kept in my open heart; Struggling at points to see ahead  But the certainty gets stronger with each passing day.  Once I heard the universe rewards the brave and  I smiled for a deep, long breath; looking ahead  I see light, looking ahead it all gets clear and alive. Misunderstood I might be but nothing matters Except having and embracing my one true self. Tingles all over my body; dancing around the wild, bright fire I felt alive, I felt like coming home to my own heart, my soul tribe. Letting go to transform, letting go to evolve,  Relinquishing control, letting my higher self guide me through it all.  Remembering the sacredness of my soul, embracing the freedom  That I so long to hold; fear still has a hold but I am determined to let it go.  I’ve been on a journey, caterpi...
