Talking About it Tuesday...We are...

"We do not become healers.
We came as healers.  We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.

We do not become storytellers.
We came as careers of the stories we and our ancestors actually lived.  We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.

We do not become artists.
We came as artists.  We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.

We do not become writers..dancers..musicians..helpers..peacemakers.  We came as such.  We are.  Some of us are still catching up to what we are.

We do not learn to Love in this sense.  We came as Love.  We are Love.  
Some of us are still catching up to who we truly are."
​~Clarissa Pinkola Este

Happy Tuesday beautiful friends!  As we move throughout our lives, I think it imperative to have benchmarks to measure our progress. Some words of encouragement to line the walls of our homes or fill the pages of our journals.  This work by Clarissa Este is one such piece that helps me to navigate back to my true North.  Do you have a favorite passage that reconnects you to your truest nature?  

How would your life change if you believed that you already 'are?'  In all of your vulnerabilities, messiness, and courageous acts of living...can you fall into the space of knowingness?  

And what if you were to fast-forward your life to being 95 years old, what will you want to say about your life?  Will you say I was the artist and I painted a canvas full of love, splashed with a bit of grief, tinged with joy and accented with happiness.   How will this wise one that lives within you help you to move into your role of knowing that you already are?  

May we all support one another in our remembering!  

May You Sweetly Seek:)
In Gratitude,
