This morning I opened the window to bid the light to enter. He warmly welcomed my spirit and flooded through my heart. “You’ve been closed off for far too long. Your heart is sick and pale. I will warm you in your blood, and open you to all that’s good.” I felt his kisses strengthen me, and I accepted his gift.
I have been hiding in the darkness of my farmhouse, not wanting to admire the beauty of this fall. My cogs have been crammed with self pity, and it has been slowing my spirit. This morning I have finally renewed my yoga practice. Which is something I have been shirking since September. I feel whole, renewed, and refocused. I have let the light in to favor it over the darkness I was wallowing in.
I realize that my poetry has been tinted with self pity, and that I have poisoned your spirits with my own pain. I ask you to take my hand, and to walk through the autumn woods with me. Together let us put down our burdens to let in the light.
My affirmation for today: “I am light, I create light, I let in the light and conquer my own darkness.”
This fall is rich with the colors of passion. The trees are aflame beckoning you to rekindle your own lust for life. Let the comforts of a crisp fall surround your heart. This is the time for new beginnings, and to embrace the coming seasons with hope and joy.
Love
Sarah
