Here I am, I’m Shining.

By Ali  //  Empowerment, Poetry  //  2 Comments

All over the map,

Following waves of energy this way and that.

A ceaselessly unfolding cathartic process…

Does it ever end?

I’m seeking stillness.

The sweet solitude of a quiet mind…

Saboteur, silence yourself!

I crave wholeness in my holiest of forms,

But it’s all within

Right here in the holy temple

Why do we choose to shadow our light?

Darkness

The mystery

Void.

Where we journey to find our light…

Libran balance

Masculine and feminine

We are not lightness without dark.

Where would we be without the mystery?

Sweet mystery.

Bring me home to self,

I’m ready to shine.

    Gorgeous! I love the image. I have found that as I further seek the light, the deeper I go into myself, the more the shadow comes out to play as well. It’s a beautiful dance.

Words of Wisdom

"Within every woman there is a wild, and natural creature ~ A powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species. Though the gifts of the wildish nature come to us at birth, societies attempt to "civilize" us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure and muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. Without Wild Woman, we become over-domesticated, fearful, uncreative, trapped..." ~ Clarissa Pinkola Estes
