Her message thwarted
And contorted
By the twisting and turning
Of time
Why can’t she have more
How does she keep time
While her heart settles

Awaken. Heal. Lead.
Her message thwarted
And contorted
By the twisting and turning
Of time
Why can’t she have more
How does she keep time
While her heart settles
The score

In what uncertain times
And misdirections
Does her heart find itself
Wanting more
Seeking out the light
Only to find that darkness
Is often more forgiving

The yearning we feel for something more doesn’t mean we don’t appreciate what we have.
That were not grateful or can’t be satisfied.
It means, deep in our hearts, we know there is something we haven’t touched yet.
Some feeling, some space deep inside.
Some action or awareness still just out of reach.
Some person, place, or thing we’ve yet to see with our own eyes or touch with our own hands.
Our soul feels it. It knows.
It’s not a lacking, it’s a knowing.
A deep intuition that more is in store for us.
How is a desire for more showing up for you today?
Often the only thing standing in our way, is us.
Not because we don’t want to succeed.
Not because we don’t want more and better for ourselves.
But because we don’t know what to do next.
We can’t see the path forward.
But the little voice inside still calls us to move.
Where can I support you today in moving mountains?
What deep inner stirrings
Are rising up
And, if not caught early
And treated with tenderness,
Like a cloud of dust
Disperse into nothingness
Her own stirred up dust
Ready to settle
Into something more
The Angels remind us that exploration —the willingness to look outside ourselves to do, be, and see more — is the heart of being alive.
