Gratitude: 2019 & 2020 Intentions
JESS.
These past few years have been multiple evolutions. And 2019 was a year of choosing Love whenever faced with the option to choose Fear/Guilt/Shame. That has led to incredibly difficult decisions, and also to the most beautiful ones. May I continue to choose Love, every time.
A moment to honor:
The parts of me I let go. Thank you for protecting me this long, for carrying me this far. Next year I set down the armor I’ve worn for lifetimes, and when paralyzed by vulnerability I promise to focus on courage, trust, and community.
Reuniting with Trust. It took a decade to rearrange myself back from traumatic experiences to a person I could remember, and love, and celebrate. It took a specific kind of forgiveness.
I grieved to see how deeply I’d buried trust for leading me to harm. Plugging back in has completely changed the energy in my life. May I continue nurturing my relationship with Trust. May we move together to spaces that empower and uplift.
Love as a practice. For everyone who entered my life this year. For my family. My soul fam. My amazing partner. You carry so much love. The kind that permeates and nourishes. The kind that overwhelms me between breaths of gratitude. May we continue building love in each other and the world.
Thank you.
That’s it for now. I’ve got my own private journaling to do around resolutions and goal setting, because 2020 is gonna be a wild year. I feel as if I’m off flat ground, and it’s time to climb. I’m ready. :)
Closing out 2019 in deep gratitude - thankful for the opportunity to reflect, honor, and move forward.
