some days — a beautiful poem

I love quotes, poems, words of wisdom, bible scriptures, journals, daily bible devotionals, words with meaning, inspirational blogs or anything that gives me a sense of understanding to move me through the many paths on this journey of healing.

much to be thankful for

This week is a week of blessings and gratitude on many levels for me.

This week is Thanksgiving; a time to shut off the busyness of life and spend quality time with family, friends and enjoying good food and drinks.

grace in the yellow butterfly

I love those little moments when grace shows up through God and gives you small messages to hold onto.

When I left session today, the moment I shut the door to the outside of the office, a yellow butterfly was right there on the bush aside of the door…

tied to the past

Last month I fell down the stairs at my house and took a hard fall — wooden stairs to be exact and I banged up my right arm pretty good!

I have been back and forth to the orthopedics for a month now and finally they scheduled me a MRI to see if I tore a muscle or something…

five minute friday {roots}

Welcome to five minute Friday to where us bloggers are given a word prompt and write for just 5 minutes simply…

Today was a really good session. We talked about so many things that this year has brought for me, how painful this year has been for me, and how much we are moving out of that together in our work.

and this is just how I feel . . . .

Today, I am sad — just sad. It’s one of those days that tears find me no matter where I am, and it’s just an emotion that is here today.

I don’t think I have ever allowed myself to write on my blog when I am sad, or having a hard time.

five minute friday {quiet}

Welcome to five minute Friday to where us bloggers are given a word prompt and write for just 5 minutes simply for the joy of writing.

No editing or backtracking necessary. No need to be perfect. Just words freely flowing from my heart to yours.

there is no answer — and that’s okay!

I have asked myself many times this year “why?” “what is the reason?” — Why was this year filled with so many unexpected, unneeded, unnecessary trial of events that did not need to happen?

allowing myself attachment

Today I went into session on my normal day off, and it was not easy to accept!

It doesn’t happen often, and I may have written about this before, but it’s a huge huge deal for me.

letting it be known

I saw this quote over the weekend on another blog and I just about lost my breathe because it was so deep and real.

something feels familiar

It has been incredibly hard work in therapy this year!!

Sometimes when you work so hard, things seem astray; like losing a sense of self because you get so lost in what is going on around you — at least for me.
