Truth......

Truth is such a complicated word.....it has come to mean so much to me....discovering what my truth embodies, and then holding on tightly to it.......and it also means surrounding myself with people that are truth seekers, and seeking to be honest in their evolution too....and it is hard to tell sometimes who resides in that camp......and I need to commit fully in seeking those folks that really get me.....and I am so lucky to have so many.....and I need to stand in my truth, even in its discomfort.....my daughter is struggling some with the transition to my dating, and having a relationship of any kind.....even from far away....and I have been working hard at walking the line between being hugely empathetic in her challenges, but also not allowing the guilt to set in and diminish my truth either....and gosh if it is a fine line......I feel the need in this chapter to be understood more than ever by the people in my blanket fort;) I won't hide stuff away about me or pretend anything to maintain a relationship......I think when we are younger......before we get in touch with ourselves we do that.....bend our stuff, or betray our stuff, to fit in or blend in.....and I am past that part of life and do not shy away from sharing, and writing about the stuff that comes....and resonates deeply......and it sometimes makes others uncomfortable, which I get, but it is absolutely paramount to me to just be ME:) Stepping into myself for the first time maybe ever, and owning who I have discovered.....and I trust that the right people will find me, and understand it too.....I am seeking to instill that in my daughter too....and she is far ahead of where I ever was at her age....comfortable to stand in her unique self, and not allow for the noise to swallow her up......we had a nice day cozying in and letting her brother get better ......I have some books to drop off and I think we may catch a hike....not infecting anybody but getting some fresh air in this beautiful fall weather, after I deliver a bunch of books:) The truth matters.....both spoken truth, and your own......that is what I have come to believe, and I am seeking the truth tellers in every way:) And ones that honor mine! Enjoy your Sunday:)
