Absolutely delighted to pour from my heart, my well within of light,
gathered from experiences thus far, that not only adds to my sparkle,
but ignites the hearts of others, inspiring what lives within them,
to burst from their seams, radiantly reminding them of how beautiful,
they really are, We all really are.
I started my Evolving Mirror, to share my heart, my voice,
though past experiences had taught me to stay silent,
stay scared, stay controlled, steer away from sharing
how much a fool I was ingrained to believe I was,
that spilled my truth through my art, my poetry,
lifted veils, uncovered the blindness and numbness,
I hide myself beneath. I overcame my years of all sorts of abuse that occurred in my upbringing.
I dared to question all that I knew, opening the book of my heart,
to the world. As Brene Brown say's and upholds, "Daring to be Great, showing up to the arena! Taking Risks!"
I listened to my heart and Soul, cried lots, as I unfurled from survival,
and merged into Thriving, whole...
I revealed my messes, my lessons, my blessings, my travels, my ownership, my steps...
My truth illuminated the toxicity within myself, my environment,
the people I loved but outgrew, the people around me, friends and family, the choices I made no matter what the reasoning was...
I learned how to discriminate between what is healthy and unhealthy,
and most importantly I learned how to forgive myself and others
without becoming a doormat of toleration,
to simply comply as the people pleaser, egg shell walker, traumatized person, I allowed myself to be, back then not knowing what I know now.
I learned to love and accept myself, for who I think I am.
Evolving Mirror is my arena, my dream, my heart, my reflections
of all I have gathered, and still am gathering from this Journey, We call Life.
Little did I know, when opening my heart, I would be flooded with open arms, inspiring people, all lovingly welcoming me,
pour from inside out. That is something, huge for me, that I am wholeheartedly grateful for every moment of every day, every weave we merge our hearts together, every comment, compliment, and exchange of truths.
We are Evolving Reflections of Love that we are, through my page, I offer my heart unconditionally, my art work, my words, my actions, my rhythm, my dance, my presence, openly, as needed, and as applies to your heart.
May we ignite as to rekindle the wilderness, and wild fires that is who we are, who we need to be, who we must become, to burn ever so brightly and inspire others to do the same, within their lives,
and within their worlds.Through self love, all things, that are not necessarily just things, dreams too, become Possible!
