goodbye Mallorca
It’s been a brutiful (brutal + beautiful) 20 months. Here are 20 things I learned:
Something invisible that tied me to our world came undone, and I’m an re-discovering who I am.
Here are 20 things I learned:
You don’t owe the world more than you can give.
Give people grace and compassion as they navigate their own worlds…
And at the same time, don’t give them space in your life if they haven’t earned it.
Everything comes at a cost. Who is paying and is it fair?
Not everything happens for a reason. Life is a chaotic mystery and the miracle is what we make of it.
It really is about the little things. Cherish each hug, every kind word, the clouds passing by, the lapping of the water, the grace and kindness received.
Never ever take anything personally.
We are all hypocrites and when we own that we see where we need to grow and heal.
Life will redirect you. Have the patience and the pliability to allow it.
It’s ok to take a fallow year or two.
Life isn’t a longevity contest, it’s a quality game…
But more than that, it’s about truth and love because truth and love are always invitations to more profound experiences of themselves.
Duplicity is the habit of hiding our vulnerability.
Sometimes the most beautiful things are also the most brutal.
Regardless of what we say, ultimately it’s our energy and integrity that matters.
How beautiful it is to deeply understand that you don’t need to chase things, prove your worth, run to be seen, loved or validated.
You can only become whole by seeing the parts of yourself that you don’t really love and staying with them until you find understanding and compassion for why they’re here…
And then being really sweet and loving with yourself because you realise they come from an innocent place. That’s how their charge transforms from a burden to a gift.
The body has its own kind of language that expresses what words cannot.
Grief is the ultimate expression of love.
