Illumination beneath the surface of the ocean


I've been thinking a lot lately about depth. And how it means something different for each of us. Our levels and capacity of depth differ. So, as you are searching. As you are healing and rediscovering who you are underneath all of the protective layering that was once built to help you feel safe in your body, with your caregivers and within the world, please remember this: people can meet you only at the depth they are capable of being within themselves. It is not a reflection of you, your worth, your own capacity to continue unravelling the past and discovering who you authentically are in the present. Keep going. Keep searching. It's okay to release people, places and things that no longer align with you, who can not continue diving to the depths you are traveling to. And yes, at times it may feel lonely (I accidentally just typed lovely), but it is actually lonelier to sit with people or in places where you are not met, not seen, nor honored for who you authentically are. So, I encourage you to dive, dive below the turbulence on the surface and find your center at the core of who you are. And from there, please, re-emerge bringing with you all of your strength, courage and light to share with the world.
