It's said that "When you no longer care what other people think of you, you have reached freedom. Life truly begins the moment you realize you don't have to prove anything to anyone but yourself."
I woke up feeling great today! It's my birthday, and on this day feeling happy would be hopefully expected, but this is different. I don't recall ever feeling like this. After decades of trauma, hopelessness, depression and fear, it's like I'm breathing new air. I wrote about this in my journal this morning and was reminded that this feeling didn't come out of nowhere, I've fought with everything in me for this moment.
I want this vibe to set the stage for my coming year. But I feel some reflection on the last year is necessary as that got me to where I am today. Mistakes were made; some in love, some in fear, some in disbelief. I learned who I am and more importantly who I'm not. At times I owned my truth and in others I got small to avoid conflict. I lost a lot. My resilience, my tenacity and my willpower pushed me forward when I felt immobile. I had some of the best and worst times of my life, and I needed it all to be where I am now.
This coming year I have huge personal goals. I'm mapping out timelines and plans for what I want to write. I'm taking a hard look at my health and seeing where tweaks need to be made. I am owning all my power. The scariest one of all is my intention to get brutally honest in my writing about my life, my past and everything I am.
Melissa Catherine posted this on Facebook and it resonated hard:
Walk right up to the thing inducing fear. Command what you desire. Stand still in the chaos. Surrender to the outcome.
This is what I'm manifesting.
