I think of you. I know you barely remember Me But today, I can tell you: I walk in the streets without fear I love with all my heart I am not afraid of the door I can sleep without my lights on or without a background noise
I think of you. I know you barely remember me But today, I can tell you: Bitch I am still standing I am reclaiming everything you took from me. I am learning to embrace all of me. I don’t want to hurt myself, and I don’t want to drink on my pain
I think of you. I know you barely remember me But today I can tell you: I am loved. I am safe. I am good enough. I am embodied. I am kind. My mind, body and soul are intact. One day, I will barely remember you, but you will think of me, I promise!

I was looking at my hand. I have a scar, I don’t remember the pain it caused, but I remember how I got it. It was an adventure.
I can’t see the scars on my heart and mind, I can hear them sing I remember how they got there. But they don’t sting Not in the slightest. I am now at my brightest. Please don’t get me wrong, I have more healing to do, but I am also past some, so free and liberated, too

You, who do you think you are?
You, be quiet
You, do as you are told
Words that limit, detract, and destroy
Words you may have heard and did not enjoy
Words from a father, a mother, a sibling
Words from a teacher, a colleague or friend
Those words that keep you down and dull
You do as you are told
Those words that stop you listening
Those words that stop you seeing
Those words that stop you feeling
It’s time to turn up your hearing
It’s time to start seeing
It’s time to start feeling
It’s time to start believing
You are living in someone else’s comfort zone
Break those external influences
Break those internal voices
Break those negative feelings
Break those patterns that have held you down
Step into your future
Step into your purpose
Step into your wisdom
Step into action, enlightenment and joy
You are more than you know
You are starting to glow
You are a star
You are; You are.

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness
Some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
Who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
For some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
Meet them at the door laughing,
And invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
Because each has been sent
As a guide from beyond.
