My Thanksgiving thoughts fit better on this blog...they are more retrospective than looking ahead.
I feel thankful for all the deep dark days of sorrow...all the valleys where I was able to leave all the material matters to rest, and just dwell in the emotions...where my focus attached itself to my spirit, instead of looking outward at things.
When your inner landscape collapses, the outside things mean nothing.
Without the devastation of my life...I would not have found my soul.
I am thankful for the tragedy.
I am thankful for all the people and things that failed me.
I am thankful for having to reach deep within in me for me.
I am thankful for my awareness, a rise in consciousness to see above or beyond my old beliefs.
I am thankful for leaping into uncharted waters and finding new steps.
I am thankful for the strength it has taken to do so.
I am thankful that in the darkest moments I found my connection to the Universe.
I am thankful that I am aware of the dance between Him and I.
I am thankful knowing He was there in the darkest moments showing me where I was not being authentic, where I had lost my truth and my hold on reality.
I am thankful that I know, I never walk alone.
