going nowhere

I’ve been on a journey

with no destination

but 

I only see that in reflection.

Failed steps featureless:

it’s enough to drive anyone 

over the edge.

and yet

I’ve kept going

no choice

no way to escape.

but 

circling back 

to very beginning:

no face

no race

no place 

save home

if only I’d seen that.

nowhere

everywhere

bliss

love

busted wide open

to

life.

yes yes yes.

⁣ We have all heard something new and quickly decided it’s a load of crap or haven’t given it a second thought. But what if we approached information more openly with curiosity to understand it better?⁣ ⁣ Yesterday I went to a session about the access to consciousness bars which I knew nothing about. This is a form of holistic therapy that believes there are bars of energy that run through our head and by pressing these points we can achieve positive change to various areas of our life. ⁣ ⁣ I’m on the fence but it’s definitely something I approached openly and intend on looking into more. I may be skeptical about it but I want to allow myself to make a decision in an informed way by being open and curious to the approach. ⁣ ⁣ #openness #curiosity #askquestions #newinformation #learnandgrow #respect🙏 #opendoors #weneverknow #learningfromothers #openyourmind #letitin #learningiskey #lifeenergy #accessconsciousness #accessconsciousnessbars #holistictherapy #selfimprovements #selfdevelopmentjourney #selfgrowth #lovetolearn #wellbeing #mentalwellbeing #journeytowellness #wellbeingjourney #wellbeingwarrior #wellbeingblogger #lifejourney #opentolife

Written 8/1/18 . Open. This year has been the biggest evolution of my life. Not moving out on my own, not surviving a relationship that could have killed me, not the years of uncertainty, none compared to this last year. . At first, whilst losing my shit... remember I built this strict structure to protect myself... I tried to harness every detail, to keep "control" gave me a sense of safety, but it wasn't real. . Life knew I had work to do and then forced me to. It brought with it one of the most life altering, gut wrenching, overwhelming, derailing, emotionally expensive and horrible experiences of my life. It also gave me the best possible recovery. . Ironically in the vulnerability that was demanded by this life, just to survive it, I have more confidence and security because I was and am open and honest enough to admit all of my truths. . Staying open to life, goals, new ideas, love, extreme change, things that scare me... proves I am alive and capable and ready to take. it. on! . Cheers y'all! And as if I needed more proof, my Enneagram today: Type Eight EnneaThought® for August 1st Today, follow your path of transformation. As an Eight, if you let go of your identification with your particular self image that you must always be in control of your environment, you will find transformation through self-surrender. (Understanding the Enneagram, 375) . . . #imaneight #opentolife #evolutionofme #uncontrollablyme #vulnerabilitybroughtstrength #honorthespace #uncontrollablyme #speakyourtruth #my_story #livenandlovin #survivalmakesusbetter #madhope #berad #unabashedly #mentalhealthawareness #shineondarlin #blogsohard #iliveoutloud #isharebecauseican #compelledtolove #realisttalk #domesticviolencesurvivor #linkisinthebio #thankyouforreading #humancondition #wildchild #resiliencesquad #tattooedmama #bourbonlover #lets_chat #enneagram #lifecoachlife #whoistracy #yearofchange #goalsmetandmade 📸: @starmega_photography (at Virginia Beach, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BmmOaomFrs3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hkktx0v4pu69

LIFE WITHOUT,DEATH WITHIN

How can we see without light, Tango and salsa without music, Fall for beauty without artists, Swim without ocean blue beneath, Run kites above without wind above you, It seems rather obvious you need them, So stand still and expect joy to fill you, Shuckle your feet and expect adventure to amaze you, Close your ears and inspiration find you. Shield your heart and expect to be loved. Your soul is an empty chamber: Lock the door and nothing will come in, Shut the window and stale and stuffy it will be. It is better to live without rather than die pale within. So dare to live, Dare to leave the chamber, Dare to drag beauty and joy inside, Dare to open the windows: Open them to friendships and memories. Seek meaning outside to be full inside.

It’s a path and that takes a willingness to look again and again and again to bring along the companions of curiosity and compassion...this is how we let go and this is how we open to what’s here 🙏#compassion #mindfulness #opentolife #awareness #clearseeing https://www.instagram.com/p/BrFptM3n7pH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lsg78kp9iuzh

The spiritual path is one of mystery/unknown...we shift from old patterns that give the illusion of safety through control and meet whatever arises with openness, curiosity kindness and the willingness to be with rather than run from...this is how we begin to see things as they are rather than how we want them to be...stay with the practice no matter what arises 🙏❤️#mindfulness #spiritualawakening #spiritualjourney #buddhadharmasangha #kindness #dontknowmind #compassion #opentolife #awareness #wbmindfulness https://www.instagram.com/p/BrareT2nIzc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14hj5us2nj84m
