My beloved,
Do not forget me I have taught you resilience and strength I have taught you self care and compassion I have taught you the reality and truth. Do not forget me Even though you dislike me And choose not to remember me. Do not forget me You will not arrive at where you are without me. I do not need you to put me on the pedestal I do not need you to worship me I only need you to remember me. I am your teacher I am your motive I am your messenger I am working for you I am an important substance in your sacred medicine. If you forget me You will forget why you are here You will forget your motive and purpose You will forget why you are doing what you do. Do not forget me. With all my love, Your Sacred Ache If you dare
To follow your passion To not follow others’ footpath Boredom and fatigue will not find you. If you dare To be in the space of love To be touched by another soul Intimacy will caress you like a gentle breeze. If you dare To trust the “Fool” To take the leap of faith Adventures and wonders will receive you with delight. If you dare To love yourself relentlessly To always put yourself first You will know how precious you are. If you dare To release all expired friendships To lay a red carpet for the worthy ones Your tribe will march in with drums and trumpets. If you dare To trust yourself wholeheartedly To never doubt yourself You will know you are and all that you seek. If you dare To trust life completely To receive her with grace You will find her to be more benevolent than you thought. I have searched and searched, endlessly:
For spirituality, for sacredness, for worth, For success, for love, for recognition, for me, For every elusive thing on this earth. The wise ones say, we need not roam, For we are everything we seek, We are the Universe, we are the light, There is no need to seek outside. Yet, I mistook success for my identity, And wealth as my measure of prosperity. Beliefs imposed on my femininity, Dictated my worth and life’s destiny. My self-esteem hinged on others’ views, Validation sought from their praises and cues. I served others to feel good enough, Without realising I lost myself in the rough. Finally, I arrive, To this ordinary human life, And see its beauty in a different light. There is sacredness to be found, In the everyday sights and sounds. Spirituality in each breath, Love that transcends life and death. Success and abundance without the pressure, Recognition and self-worth in equal measure. I am just me, living this ordinary life, Seeing sacredness in each day and night. My very presence is a blessing pure and true, In this world, I am enough and so are you. |
