Expressive arts…. diving in to the Underworld

 

I certainly have posted #toomuch today. And I’m a too much woman. 

I am learning every day to love- deeply. Not just the good stuff – but also the deep shadow stuff. As I own my shadow- it frees me from deep pain… and releases me to love you without manipulation- but from a giving place instead of getting. 

As I lean into discomfort- and listen to my body- and my inner wisdom- and feel all there is to feel- I set myself free.

I see my fear. 
I see my judgment.

I see my rage. 
I see my unfaithfulness. 
I see my disregard for my neighbor.

I see my massive projection on to all of you and especially to my most beloved. 
I see my lack of compassion. 
I see my pride and ego and excruciating need to feel valid and right and liked. 

There, there, shadow self. I see you. I will not leave you. I am here for you.
