To the thing my mind vehemently objected to
To the thing I had a million and one fears around doing
To that which I’ve carefully planned around avoided dreaded –and for good reason
To all that is rational, practical, real and reasonable
My Soul Said Yes
Impossible! My mind screamed. This isn’t what I want
Or was it?
Because when I addressed each fear and emotion and pattern of conditioning
When I went through the layers, one by one, with care, discernment and compassion
When I held my own hand through my darkest fears and terrors, all the outcomes
I was returned back to peace
And in that sweet relief, like a light tearing through the thick fog
My Soul joyously beamed through my belly, saying,
You WANT this
You will enjoy this
We want you to have this pleasure
I was surprised, and I was not surprised
Because I asked to be shown the Truth
…the Truth which does not have to make logical sense for it to be So…
And now I sit, integrating this budding relationship, within
Between what I think, what I feel, what I think I feel …and who I AM
