I feel inspired to start the day with an inspirational blog. Although I usually prefer to write in my journal, today there's energy bursting forth to blossom abundantly...
This morning I woke up early from an intense dream experience, and decided to have a bath. In the bath I was noticing my body, and having new realizations about my relationship with it. My body is around the "average" North American size, yet for most of my life I've thought it to be unattractive, or less worthy of appreciation than the "ideal" thin, athletic, model body shape.
The benefit of this path is that it taught me to honour and develop my inner beauty, my wisdom, my courage to look deeper within and around me. Now, however, I'm realizing it's time to honour the unique shape of my body ~ and *decide* that it is beautiful and worthy of infinitely amazing love, because I AM.
I feel that the truest, loveliest, most authentic beauty comes from within. It would only be my ego that would think I'm beautiful because of this, that, this, or that. The truth is that the LOVE that is the true nature of my SOUL is the SOURCE of infinite beauty and appreciation. From that inner connection, my radiance blooms forth no matter what physical form I take!
I recently cut off my dread extensions, and that has been a journey of reclaiming my authentic beauty. I loved them a lot, and they helped me tune into the feeling of being a beautiful young maiden. However they started to fall out rather mystically, and I decided to cut them off to challenge my attachment to them. At first I looked in the mirror and saw the "old" me. Now I realize that I see the authentic me, but also the part of me that is more of a wise crone. This is an infinitely valuable aspect of myself, and even though society seems to prefer youthful innocence, I know that I am beautiful and worthy of infinite appreciation no matter how old I am or look or act or think.
I have the power to decide that I AM beautiful. I also have the power to decide that I AM worthy! And this worthiness truly comes from the knowing that I AM one soul but also the Universe. I AM worthy because I AM! I choose to say thank you & goodbye to illusions of smallness or limitation. I NOW CHOOSE to LIVE MY LIFE honouring, sharing & reflecting my TRUE INFINITE LOVELINESS, BEAUTY, WISDOM, and VALUE!!!
Now my path is simply unfolding, like a lotus flower... I AM infinitely good enough, always have been, always will be, just because I AM! You too! Now we can just relax and enjoy these amazing life journeys even more! :)
