"cling to what is good"
romans 12:9
`
i need to make it clear
there are things in my life i have come to know
and
one of those many things...
there are mountains i may never be able to climb
there are mountains i may never forget...
yet
still
i stand
i climb
i crawl
wobbly legs
shaking knees
bad assed
and
willingly
`
`
`
`
`
`
if i told you how very important it is to trust ones self
would you believe me
?
trust me when i whisper this to you...
i have decided to be my own joy healer
my uplifting tribe to chant sweetly my ability
for me to stand tall
i'm showing up for my life
{again}
i'm showing up for my life
present
+
concious

"come away with me in the night
come away with me and I will write you a song"
nora jones
`
`
`
{trusting me}
what i've learned to be the ingredient that was missing for so long
{trusting myself}
the more trust a woman shows herself
then
the more a woman remains on a path of authenticity
it's a pinch of this
a
teaspoon of that
the smokey paprika whirling in that slurry that binds the gumbo
the pinch of sweet currry
a bit of vanilla in the frosting
that
makes you close your eyes and smile with each spoonful
a hair flip
a pat to the afro
lip gloss for no reason at all
trusting myself blazes a trail of feel good vibes
restores my strength
...brings my warrior to the surface
`
`
`
`
`
`
{what about trusting the process}
`
the dirty dishes
scraped knuckles
the i miss you
the dead roses
the rain
regrets
fears
the
ups
the
downs
`
{while your trusting me}
know this
i have broken my own joy enough times
that
i could rewrite the book on let-downs
`
`
`
"touch me with no hands, hold me with your eyes"
alina baraz
`
`
`
{still}
i continue to connect the roots of this old oak
in which
i tangel myself within the stories of others
as i walk this dirt road
recognizing
each magical piece
sometimes damn messy pieces along the way
coffee
glitter
art
fear
love
loss
beauty
ups
downs
storms
sun rising in my palms
`
`
`
+
joy
amazing joy
joy
that heals
joy
that mends
