Just some early morning poetry writing…

Busy
Always busy
Because it’s so much easier to run
When I feel things so deeply
When I feel with every part of me
A busy-ness that comes from within
Where none of my busy-ness matters
Nonsense… it comes from within

It comes from a part of me
Afraid
To feel
A part of me choosing disconnect
Refusing to sit with it
When it’s more comfortable to run

While another side of me
Understands the illusion
It knows the truth
I’m keeping busy to hide my truth
It knows my truth is liberating
Connection is liberating
To feel is liberation

Two parts of me that struggle to be heard
One wants to control… to feel safe
And to take control
The other wants to open… already safe
Open in surrender

Today the busy-ness takes hold
And there’s too much to feel…
Too much happening…
Too little control…

And then stuckness.

Something changes.

It’s not either, or
It can be both
Both sides of me together
In the uncontrollable chaos
I remember to connect
To choose connection through the chaos.

In between the running maybe I pause
I pause to remember
To connect
To sit with it
To open
…For just one breath.

One beautiful breath… Slowing time
For just a moment
For a prayer
For space

In the midst of this uncomfortable
Yet comfortable chaos
It slows me down to remember God holds me
To remember a softness only He can breathe into me
And in that breath…
That slow breath
There’s a union of both sides of me
The openness and stuckness
A union of escape and surrender

Both parts of me together
Meeting in that breath.
In that one expansive inhale
In that one slow exhale
My hand on my heart
I am there… in that space
Between love and fear

Throwback to Raabta Festival with my baby girl, Gameela. The littlest of my four 💜. This one is an actual angel from heaven with a side of sneaky monkey.

“The unconscious is the body”

God, I love my journey through this life. It’s hard as F but when I learned how to surrender everything changed. Even the hard became interesting and a learning experience and I LOVE learning. 🤓 Lately I’ve been learning about my body and how the body is the path. It’s the path to feeling… the path to knowing… to healing… to processing… to releasing… to living… to being… to softening… to doing… and the path to learning. It is the experience of this world and its beautiful.

Nerding out to this book about the body and the first sentence already has me wide eyed and so excited!

My mind and heart had another conversation today. This time about why my mind is making it very hard to stay present and in a state of being even though my body and nervous system are feeling safe in the present. It relates to why we choose a familiar hell over an unfamiliar heaven.

Mind said: If we stay here I will die. I will throw anything I can at you to get you out of here because it’s safer where I can control the story. Even if it hurts you, it’s safer for me that way. I don’t want to change and you’re asking me to. I don’t want to let go of control. I’m holding on very tightly here and I can’t let go, my life is at stake. The present moment has no use for me.

Heart: My love, I promise I won’t leave you behind. I promise that wherever I go you will be there too. You will not die from change. You will not die from letting go. You will not die from surrender. You will only grow from them. You’ll meet God from them. There is no death. There’s only change and change can feel like death. Ironically, when you let go of trying to stay alive that is when you become alive. Trust and let go. I hold you with love.

Man 3arafa nafso 3arafa rabbo
Know yourself to know God

That’s the answer to questions like:
- why should i meditate?
- Why should i sit with myself?
- Why open a can of worms and see my darkness?
- I’m happy in my life so why should I work on myself?
- What’s do I gain from healing?

Try and get to know God all you want but until you go inwards into yourself and your darkest parts… you’ll never truly know Him.
