in jen's kitchen . one year ago
shutter sisters has invited readers to look back to one year ago...
last year, sitting at a dear friend's dining room table, i did a stream of consciousness writing kind of blog post that led me to this:
i am here.
i am here.
i am here.
and it is beauty.
all of it.
it is beauty.
(thank you)
the post from one year ago reveals some whispers of truth i had wanted to share for a long time. even though i shared them in images and phrases that do not fill in the gaps of the stories, it felt powerful to claim the pieces of my past in this way.
i thought i might do this in reverse today to share pieces of this moment, on this day:
i remember a dream that became an "of course life will unfold this way" belief that turned into an "oh, i don't think i am ready for that" sort of decision. i remember a path that began to appear that enveloped me in light and love yet was filled with confusion and fear. i remember a whispered moment that became an unburying of what i was determined to ignore. i remember the afternoon that swirled into laughter that led to hope being shared and heard. i remember the reflection i met eye to eye that pushed me to accept the truth i have always known. i remember the love that entwined with the dream and held the fear and confusion and then birthed all that was meant to be.
i am here.
i am here.
i am here.
and it is beauty.
all of it.
it is beauty.
(thank you)
