One with Oneself

Art by Carlos Daniel

I was sitting with myself and wondered, do you all sit with yourselves?

I always feel weird, like I might be the only person that sits and visits themselves.  Something like the check-in I spoke of yesterday.  But more like connecting with the flesh part of myself.  Today I feel more like the soul of me than the human; if that makes sense.

This morning I was asking myself, "How was yesterday?  What can you do better today?"  I was thinking about my schedule and how I should be doing xyz but instead, I'm sitting and talking to myself about my day.  I still need to do all the things that need to get done but instead, I decided to write because it is what keeps me connected to myself.

Yesterday was a great day.  The morning started slow, it rained all day, I loved on my family, I moved my body, I had a great sweat and I slept peacefully.

Today, I am having a slow morning with myself.  Taking time for reflection and introspection... 

I've missed pieces of me that I tucked away, pieces that I hid because I didn't think it was safe for her.  When I sit with myself, I am sitting with her.  I want her to know it is safe to come out now.  She's the fearless side of me but also the most fragile.  I tucked her away while I figured some things out because she kept breaking.  She kept stopping, she kept quitting when things got too hard.  She was too connected to the human experience so for lack of a better word, she had to be benched.

This side of me,  the more spiritual side, stepped up and in to remind all versions that this is not a human experience.  This is exactly what many have explained time and time again and since I don't have the right words I will not attempt to explain.  I just know what I know and if I kept going down the path I was on, I would not be open to any of this.  Had I stayed locked into the human experience, I would not be happy and grateful for all that I have and all that is to come.

Changing my mind, changed my life.

How can I change my mind if I never sat with myself?  I get to know every side of myself and I stay open to allowing each version to shine at the right time.  All versions are welcome but I hope that my highest self will continue to show up when all other versions are not in alignment.

I am in alignment. I see clearly, I hear clearly, I am witnessing the human experience.

This flesh is temporary, my soul will float on forever.

My soul is present and accounted for and my flesh acknowledges its presence.  

I am prepared to create the most amazing human experience. I hope to touch many souls along the way so that my name will live forever in the human experience.  I want to contribute to something great.  The greatness of others just wanting the best human experience.
