Remaining Open

Dunno about you, but these last couple of weeks have been... challenging (which may or may not be related to the moon and other cosmic forces🌗✨).

Despite the madness (or should I say mind-ness?), I've done my best to constantly remind myself that every single situation is a learning opportunity. No exceptions.

So I keep asking: what is this situation trying to teach me? what can I learn about myself from this? what's going on inside of me (thoughts, feelings, behaviours)?

And I observe and listen generously, with looooots of curiosity and patience (even if patience has never been my forte).

I remain as open and excited as I can about what's revealed.

And I try to remain vulnerable, honest, and soft — even when it’s so tempting to shut down and get all judgemental, resentful and annoyed at myself (definitely my forte).

So if you can relate: keep going, because I guarantee whatever is happening in your life right now is there to teach you exactly what you need, to get to know yourself better than ever before and let go of things that may be holding you back— even if it feels pretty shitty right now.

I know it’s hard but just trust me on this one, k?

This too shall pass. Promise.

Love you, always.
