Through all the wandering
And the wondering
She allows her heart to hear
The sweet, sweet sound
Of her thoughts
Sinking into her bones
And resting into her soul

Events over the last year have me questioning some things.
Asking questions like, “Why am I doing this?” and “How does this serve?”
I’ve spent most of my adult life taking advice from others and trying to apply it to myself, which has left me mostly feeling like I’m living a life that isn’t my own.
And now that’s unraveling.
Unraveling isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it does put us into a liminal space of being in-between what was and what will be.
And that feels lost and it also feels like loss.
And it feels a bit exciting too.
There is a defiant excitement in even considering defying the norm.
F*ck the rules!, a little voice inside screams.
And I listen.
For that voice is wise and has always been there.
What are you listening for today?
