“To see and hear what is here, instead of what should be, was, or will be. To say what I feel and think instead of what I should. To feel what I feel instead of what I ought. To ask for what I want instead of always waiting for permission. To take risks on my behalf, instead of choosing to be safe and not rock the boat.”
― Virginia Satir

Happy Wednesday loves! Virginia Satir's work has inspired the field of Family Therapy since the late 1950's. This pioneer who, at age five decided to become a 'children's detective on parents' has revolutionized how we view the dynamics of a family. As we identify our tribes unspoken rules, may we be encouraged to revisit our beliefs and live from the center of our personal truths.
As I reflect on her quote, I can't help but feel the wild call to curiously and creatively see and hear what's right in front of me. This is my life. No sugar coating the tremendous grief. No excusing the ignorance. Falling in love with the sweeps of love that seasonally visit my heart. Continually cultivating the presence of compassion along the way. I notice the empowered woman inside of me who finds the courage to speak a truth that is all her own. She echoes this truth from the walls of her heart. Feeling the raw tenderness of living, she gathers her experiences from a well spring of grace. I ask this wise woman inside to chose life over fear. I urge her to step outside of her self imposed comfort zone in order to experience the Divine symphony of life. I ask her to rock the boat of her soul. May it sail to far off shores and may she return changed and full of abundant experiences. I hope that she seeks experiences that thrill her to the very core. I encourage her to be of service as she gleans inspiration form the tender embrace of life. Be love I whisper...live in love and entertain a curious relationship to your fears.
May we all be encouraged to takes risks on behalf of our hearts!
May You Sweetly Seek:)
In Gratitude,
