Lately...

While my posting has lacked lately, my mind and discoveries most definitely have not. I've been feeling very awake and aware, and time to regenerate has finally been on my side after a semester that took the life out of me.

My dearly beloved journal has filled itself to the brim and I would like to leave you with some of it's last thoughts:


Listen to your insides and speak their truth. Listen to the barried voices of your heart that feel suppressed & ignored. Find the simplicity and beauty that accompanies Awareness. Wake Up. Your self is all Inisde.

Ask for the space you need in the Now, not in the future. Now you Know your longing for space, so take it gracefully. Future emotions come with No Gauruntees. The present is all you can be certain of.

Nine months of struggles, stress, vast Introspection, & Endless Efforts have brought me closer to my Self. Gratitude fills my soul, knowing how hard I've worked to find a greater peace of mind--and knowing that I have succeeded. I am continuing to struggle for success & I am glad for that.

Inside of myself Essence and Core are just waiting for me to Uncover them & Shine their soft surface so all can experience their Beauty--including myself. I'm sifting, sorting & unravelling the layers, and I can smile now--a small light of Belief is breaking through.



To each of you a wondeful New Year with just the right amount of introspection to fill your soul with gladness & continue its discovering all the while.

Love,
Rach

yes, my intestines make the most INTERESTING noises... you know, like when you're laying on your dad's belly just after he's finished a meal, and all of the mysterious gargles and pops of his stomach make you smile with intrigue. listen to your insides. ;-)
