solstice musings…
Added 2023-12-22 18:42:55 +0000 UTCwhat does it mean to truly ‘let go’? can it be defined? will it remain a mystery? it is not what i thought. things usually aren’t… i do know that the times i’ve ‘tried’ to let go, that was not it. there was much rationalizing + storytelling then. now, there is silence, stillness. vast womb. vast womb. a return. a remembering. most definitely—a falling away. when the Time comes, all that isn’t Truth will fall away. this cannot be rushed. we cannot push or force it. when it is time, it is time. wait at the edge. focus on the exhale. observe. deeply, accept. then, watch, in awe as you lift yourself up. you are the only one that can do it. watch as you fly. i couldn’t have done it without You. thank you. i love you.

DID I NOT SAY TO YOU
“even though you depart a hundred thousand years from me, in the end you will come to me, for i am your goal.
did i not say to you, ‘be not content with worldly forms, for i am the fashioner of the tabernacle of your contentment?’
did i not say to you, ‘they will waylay you and make you cold, for i am the fire and warmth and heat of your desire?’
did i not say to you, ‘do not say from what direction the servant’s affairs come into order?’ i am the Creator without directions.”
