Wisdom Named Serenity

I need to ALWAYS CHOOSE ME over misery . sadness . loneliness . emptiness. It takes COURAGE & BRAVERY to step into something NEW ALONE, WIDE EYED, CURIOUS, & HOPEFUL! This was a DEFINITE WIN 🙌🏽

All we can do is fix ourselves 💛🤗💛

"We are all human, and sometimes, the struggle feels real. For the last few months, I have been working on my schoolwork and not much else—just reading a lot, attending my classes, attending book groups when I am not sick, poetry groups the same, and attending my Al-Anon meetings. I had barely left the house for a few months here. As an extreme extrovert, this has left me feeling blue, a bit down, and lonely at times. I plan and invite others to many things; I was kinda kicking back, hoping to see if my friends would invite and include me in some of their events or outings or say, "Hey, let's get together." A few have. But I understand. Many of my peeps are busy with full, busy lives, kids, family, jobs, and other activities. I wanted to share this because, so often, it is easy for us to see someone on social media and think that all is dandy, rainbows and butterflies all the time. Loneliness is a really painful feeling in the heart and gut. I know that I am the solution and the cure. But sometimes, it is good to sit with it, sit with the painful feelings, and learn that I can live through them; I don't have to ignore them or push them down, and loneliness, like all the other emotions- is part of our human experience. I also learned I can have serenity, joy, and gratitude, along with loneliness, at the same time! So if you ever find yourself feeling lonely... you are not alone.... it gets to the best of us."

I dedicate this to my close friend whom I know this holiday season is the hardest, being that it is the first holidays without her Mom's presence. I also remember the holidays when my brothers were away in war torn countries, doing their duty as they were expected to for our country. It was hard to have them so far away those holidays, the distance and constant worry of danger made the holidays difficult. May those of you with loved ones serving abroad may they be kept safe and may you find the release of emotions and the nurturing you need during this time. For all of you who may be reading this, my heart goes out to all of you who have lost someone no matter how long ago, the grief softens but calls out to us from the love we have left to give. And to those of you who feel alone whether with others or by ones self, I hope you know how important you are and that you find the little things that bring you joy and make your own celebration of this winter season. Give love to others, but mostly to yourself. Someone once gave me wise advice, that if I ever find myself alone and lonely, to wrap my arms around myself and give myself all the hugs and love that I deserve... let us enjoy all the daily beauty that is bestowed upon us as best we can and let the grief we feel pour out and cleanse us... as the stars sparkle their magnificence and the sun rises, reminding us that our presence is a blessing - just our being is a gift.

If we just could give ourselves the grace of doing one thing that would be so difficult if we had to imagine doing it for a life time, to nurture ourselves during the holiday, our entire self would be so thankful. These little guys have some reminders for you & I.

Happy Winter Solstice ✨💫

My crown is crooked , and no I don’t need you to tell me so, I don’t care that you think so, and definitely don’t need you to fix it. I wear a crown for my own fun and amusement - also because I think they are beautiful. But if it’s crooked it’s because I’m only human- with my quarks, my preferences, my mistakes, my tumbles, and my falls. And all of my humanity may have left my crown a little crooked- but every time I fell- I got up - and that’s what matters the most. You may not like a crooked crown- you may rather not wear a crown at all - as long as it means you don’t have to admit you are part of the imperfect human race. And if a woman’s crown is crooked- either she’s quirky and knows what she likes- or she’s figuring it out. But figuring it out is her journey - and she doesn’t need you to tear her down. Why do women invest so much into pushing other women down? Well that’s a longer story and goes back to the patriarchy and systematic bias…. Ps. We all have bias- part of being a human too, so yeah that’s a story for another day. Keep rocking those crooked crowns ladies .. I’ll be the one rooting for you and when asked … validating the value and essence of you and the beautiful crookedness of your crown.
