Coming home

A short reflection on the inner journey that many of us feel called to go on at some point in our lives. Although it is impossible to capture and will be a unique experience for each of us, I do believe there are common threads that unite us as human beings.

A journey marked by twists and turns
and punctuated by many pit stops along the way.

A journey you consider abandoning at times,
questioning why you ever started.

But the pain was too much, the betrayal too hard.
There is no turning back.

It is the only journey worth taking.

In the distance shimmers the promise of something never tasted,
yet you sense it is everything.
So you take a deep breath,
you remember the prize and you keep on going.

With every step the pain dissolves,
with every mile, more trauma leaves.
Their farewell gift
a stinging kiss.

"We've got you" they shout.
"We'll protect you" they cry.
"We know better" they boast.
"We are the answer" they claim.

But you anchor in.
You reclaim your space.
Their grip loosens.
Their power gone.

And as you round the final bend,
heart beats faster,
truth rings louder,
tears spill over.

Then a voice softly whispers,
I have been waiting for you.
You are safe.
You are powerful.
You are sovereign.

You are home.

 

"If light is in your heart, you will find your way home." Rumi

It started with a gentle nudge but soon took on a life of its own......

Breast Cancer Awareness Month reminds me of how far I have come

It is hard to believe that it is more than four years since I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Now every year as October approaches, I am reminded of how lucky I am to be healthy and well. I am also reminded of how shell-shocked I was when the consultant first broke the news.

Back to nature

I owe much to nature. It has been a great teacher to me, particularly during the quiet days of lockdown. As I took time to stop and look around on my daily walk, my body relaxed as it sensed the stillness that is at the heart of everything.

Taking centre stage in your life

Have you ever felt that the best version of you is just waiting in the wings for their cue to come on stage? For many years I did. I held a very limited view of what was possible for my life, dismissing many long-held dreams that called from deep within.

The power of community

I'd never really thought about community or its importance in my life until I got sick. I moved through life unconscious of the environments I was in, the company I kept and the impact it had on me. Now more than ever I value being around like-minded people who lift me up.

Discovering the value of having a daily practice

I wrote this post just before Covid-19 reached our shores but it is now more relevant than ever. In a time when our world has been turned upside down, having a daily practice can help us get centred and give us some semblance of normality. It has made all the difference to me.

Why I’ve decided to focus on living bravely in 2020

I trust life.” It was the casual way she said the words that stirred something in me. Long after our conversation I was still thinking about them. I had the strongest sense that I was being given wise advice that I would do well to adopt in my own life.
