I KNOW her......

This week has been full of uncomfortable but important conversations....it was predicted for me, and I thought well how many could there be.....and I am up 4 lol:) From random corners of my world.....and they have all been very beneficial conversations.....necessary ones.....ones that needed to be to take a situation to the next level.....and shed beautiful understanding on it....and in all the cases it could have gone badly.....like really....but I sat in my truth, and being clear, but doing my best to have it not devolve in places where it did not need to be.....as I realized each time I was called to be true to myself, and stand up for my needs, my beliefs, and my truth.....and that isn't always easy right.....sometimes it feels easier to put our head in the sands.....and sweep stuff away.....but that won't get us anywhere.....that is true....and standing tall in the truth of who we are completely.......and owning our truth, standing up for ourselves is the way......in all of the situations everything worked out.....in a positive way.....and all the deeper dive conversations came from places I did not expect.....and the people involved did the same.....joining me in that space of understanding, and in coming to a positive resolution.....but it occurred to me in all of the places I found myself....that it feels so powerful and comforting to really KNOW her.....and by her, I mean ME:) Being so fiercely yourself is a powerful place to finally find yourself......realizing where your boundaries are, and placing them firmly but kindly where they need to be.....not going with the flow....or betraying yourself to make things easier for other people, but harder for you......I have been there for sure! And I keep speaking of this "new era" I have found myself thrust into, quite unexpectedly, but very fully......I am feeling it, in ALL of the ways this week.....stepping into another level of my personal power.....and learning how to further integrate the pieces of me, that are all me:) So as I sit here this morning, this week has felt like a marathon lol:) Of surprise stuff that needed to be solved.....I see that now.....And I am proud of the way that I showed up in each place.....so I am hoping the rest of the week is less intense lol:) My girl tried out for Odyssey of the Mind last night and is excited! I hope she makes it:) She really does too! She has her first sleepover this weekend! Hope your week has been full of shining light in dark places.....and moving you closer to where you need to be! Happy Thursday:)
