I was going to write
But then I realised
It was more important to be
Because sometimes trying to write
Takes me out of being me.
And on this first day of the year
I realised
That me in my being
Is where I needed to be
Dwelling inside
Sensing and breathing
Wonder and glow
Glimpses of self love and warmth
Like rays of sun on the mountains
Interrupting the grey and the cold
Warm on the inside
So these words are few
Make time, just to be.
For that is your eternal,.present, whole certainty.
An empty page
Day 364
One more of 2024 to go
An opportunity to write
One more blessing
One more affirmation
One more truth
One more encouragement
One more message from the universe
One more awareness of love and magic
One more moment to remember this freedom
One more occasion to make this choice
The last day?
Or the first new day
The next day
Time to be
Time to keep making me me.
Maybe 2025 won’t be (just) Happy
Maybe it will be more.
Maybe 2025 will be beautiful
Maybe 2025 will be full.
Maybe 2025 will be joyous or
Maybe 2025 is when reality bites so strong its impossible to ignore.
Maybe 2025 is about revolution, and resolve, not resolution (s)
Maybe 2025 is for you, and your soul and
when you let the mask hide you no more.
Maybe 2025 is when your love inside becomes fiercely for you.
Maybe 2025 is when you make a stand
Maybe 2025 is about to be…. messy real
Maybe it has to be
Maybe it’s just time.
Maybe 2025 is when you live according to your immense total worth – not the worthless expectations of others
Maybe 2025 is when you believe….in you.
Maybe 2025 will be about living the truth
Maybe 2025 is when you break free
Maybe 2025 is when you finally choose…for you
Maybe.
Maybe 2025 is rage……then stillness….and rage again
Maybe 2025 is time to say ‘I have had enough’
Maybe 2025 is time to take a thousand steps of bravery
Maybe 2025 is about to hold your heart with angels with arms so wide….because it will
Maybe 2025 breaks your heart open wide, open raw, for the light to break its way in
Maybe 2025 will be about hanging in there, gaining strength…noticing…
Maybe 2025 is when you may be
Maybe 2025 is when you finally make you happen
and the spark so hidden comes truly alive,
when you believe your own strength, the courage of a loving broken determined heart.
Maybe 2025 is when you step out in power,
and change what was, into what is and what might be.
Maybe that’ll be life in 2025.
Maybe.
Maybe 2025 is about embracing the ‘maybe’s’ the possibilities, the awakening.
Maybe 2025 will find you open, to being.
Maybe 2025 will find you lost and yet living.
Maybe 2025 will find you feeling,
Maybe 2025 tears will shed
Maybe 2025 will be happy, Maybe it will be sad
Maybe 2025 will be real and life will be had.
Maybe 2025 will be messy, maybe it has to be
Because (when you look back) it may be the best year you have ever had.
Maybe.
Maybe 2025 will make you, maybe it will break you
Maybe dreams and possibilities come alive, or maybe others will fade
Maybe 2025 will be slow, maybe it will be fast
Maybe 2025 is just a year, a collection of days and hours, time
and time that is happening right now.
Spark of the divine, you,
Time in 2025 to receive love and believe
In Loves greatest power
nestled in your own heart, all along
So maybe 2025, is truly about you, and that will be hard…but true…
Maybe it is time.
Maybe 2025 won’t be (just) happy, maybe…. it will be life.
