"So many of us give from guilt. We believe it is our responsibility to carry others along, to shoulder their unmet wounds, their silent expectations: you carry this, since I did not get my needs met when it mattered most as a child, it is your job to bear this burden for me."
Truth. And definitely true as well that we find ourselves through loss of what is shiny. It's this typical path in spirituality to seek and eventually realize, that what we thought we needed in the outside world, is actually what we hold within.
The shiny piano instead of the old piano. While the old piano has character, the shiny piano barely gets played. It makes us reflect on what we actually want right? Do we want glamour or fulfillment?
Death and love have their purpose. We can't gain without releasing.
That particular, Rolling Stones song– You Can’t Always Get What You Want – has become my mantra. So many times I request it on Alexa and turn it up loud!! Thank you for sharing and I wish you the best.
Beautiful piece! It resonates so much with me. The past two years I have closed so many doors without knowing if any others would open. Sovereignty is so far away from instant gratification that we often forget that’s the whole point. How else would we arrive at lived wisdoms door?

It’s all part of the healing journey. Hard as hell, and so rewarding too. It’s the only way to become sovereign.

It is such a great song to remember! Because that pretty much sums up life on this planet. And the sooner we get on board the easier it will be!

I love the saying, ‘Everything is happening for you and not to you!’
Ditto—although it‘s hard to embrace sometimes…
I know! So much easier said than done!
Love this Venus!
