In Their Light

When we decide to be brave and bring all of ourselves into the light. The doubt, the sorrow, the anger…

When we find the courage to explore parts of ourselves that lie hidden in the shadow or maybe are kept safe in a strongbox somewhere deep inside our hearts…

And when we finally tell the voice in our head to stop spinning narratives and just calmly observe and feel our emotions manifest in our body.

Something really beautiful happens. It is honest and raw but deeply ours and we start to realise these parts of ourselves are worth the light too. Not to judge them, to elevate them, or fight them. Not to compare these emotions, these states of being, to the emotions we think others have. But to give them space, acknowledgment and safety so we can begin to heal and love ourselves just the way we are.
