FREEDOM IS A STATE OF MIND FOLLOWED BY ACTIONS
How free you are can be directly related to how free your mind is from being sucked into the drama, circumstance and issues of others. And believe me, this has been a hard one for me because, well, in the past, I got sucked in pretty easily. But no more.
I stared at that moon last night, the night before, and many times before, honestly. I have stared at Her for many cycles and from many angles, asking Her about freedom. I have cried to Her in times when I felt like I was suffocating, compromising, losing, and dying. And She always, without fail, illuminated Her bright light, sharing her wisdom and grace with me.
As I look back on my past, which is in the past, I am inspired by own self. The path I have carved, the challenges I have overcome, the darkness I have owned, and the love I continue to share unconditionally.
I bow to my embodiment of the word empowerment and how it has shown up over and over again.
I bow to my new pattern of allowing love and support to come in, acknowledging it and offering it up, all in one swift breath.
I remember what it was like to not know if I would eat that day, where my next paycheck was coming from, or where I would be sleeping that night. I am grateful I can now watch my children dance, sing and play sports when they want, and eat healthy food every day. I have felt the constriction of illusion and the expansion of truth. I have been in relationships that have sucked me dry and ones that have illuminated my heart so vastly, I am deeply connected to the God.
Freedom is a state of mind that we can choose to experience in any given circumstance. We always have a choice to “be” free. Never once in those moments of perceived despair did I point the finger out or feel like I didn’t have a choice. And if I did fall into that trap, you better believe some angel/teacher was there to remind me of something different.
