Fall is drawing near...

Fall is drawing near....

So here's to pumpkins, pomegranate's , chai lattes and scarves , ohh and adorable jackets to boot! 

Transitions

Transitions are deeply unsettling.They are a good &  healthy thing yet un-nervingly unsettling.  I completely understand the necessity of the "feeling" but still, it rocks me to the core.

I trust, I wait, I feel...I repeat till I make my way outta this one.

See you on the other side

Mother Blessing

I threw one of my soul sisters a Mother blessing and I had this last minute idea , I think I got it from pinterest? I tore pieces of beautiful fabric and stamped the names of the women that were gathering in my home to celebrate their soul sister Christa.  I loved it so much that it still lingers in our dining room and I'm reminded of our special gathering.

My "fear" friend

 

 

 

Follow you fears, they can teach you many things...

 

I like to give myself permission to feel my Fear feelings, even allow them to stay a while, just as long as I remember to let them go. Hopefully before they are running a muck. It can easy for me to forget them or get used to them hanging around as I can be a flibbery giblet sometimes...before I realize it they can sort of become a permanent fixture in my home if I'm not to careful. 

 

I want fear to be my friend, not the lingering friend that always comes over to visit and doesn't know when to leave but the kind of friend whom I love dearly but say... will only tolerate so much before  they must leave my space,  as if to sense I may be sacrificing my own personal boundary, my integrity, my honesty, my passions.

 

When I forget about them...(aka hide from them) fear will always be there for me when I'm ready to forge my way through to the other side.

 

 I can and will love my "fear" friend, I will dance with it, use it to learn from as this friend really is here to teach me which way to follow...

 

I will put it to great use.

To follow my fears and I can never go wrong...

 

How do you work with your fears?
