What my heart wants is important. This concept of want and need. I learned it well healing myself from co-dependence, what I need is what I provide for myself, what I want is from others. I don't need from anybody, I want from them. And I learned it too well thinking that I provide all my needs so what I want doesn't matter. I incorrectly believed that to be truly healthy, I wouldn't want from anybody. Well, now I know that is unhealthy. I also needed to shift to a new belief, I am safe when somebody else fulfills a need that I am provided to fill for myself. Like hugs and love. I need to love myself and hold myself. I want others to love and hold me also. And yet, I shy away from that. This new shift of want and need is still settling in with me.
Love and light.

Life is wonderful. I did some emotional processes last night and came away uncovering my old belief that what I want doesn't matter. I choose to transform that into my new belief that what my heart wants is important. Asking for what I want is important. I am on my path and I'm moving forward.
Love and light.

10. Unconditional belief
My life is amazing. There are a lot of experiences in it. Some terrifying and I barely got through them and in surviving through them, I was not able to gain the lesson at that time. So, I know I need to go back in my memory to gain the lesson. This is hard for me to do. There are a lot of pieces and going and getting a piece is what I need to do to stay sane. I am putting the whole picture together and I can only see one piece at a time. The forest is beautiful, and for me to see that beauty I need to look at each gnarled knot and at each tree.
Love and light.

6. My adorable dog
7. Wind through the trees
8. Vision and dreams
9. Breathing
10. Unconditional love
I have had a good day. Up and down. Productive and lazy. Giving and receiving. Dog is barking and my thoughts shift abruptly to my downstairs neighbor. Why on nice breezy days do they constantly open and shut their sliding glass balcony door? Everytime my dog hears the rumble, he barking his head off. My doors are open all day letting the breeze come in. I cannot fathom why my neighbors are constantly opening and shutting. Maybe that's what our society has taught us to do. Open our hearts and slam them shut in terror, over and over. Mine is open.
Love and light.

8. Loving support

10. Life
The circle of life. There is a circle of support. As I support my friend who is in a bad situation at the moment, I am supported by my friends, and they are supported, and the support goes round and round as love and energy flows around and through everything on this planet. I like the Taoist belief of our ethereal bodies. They extend further and further beyond our physical bodies until we get to our 8th body which extends outward to encompass the whole of the universe. And that is how I know you without ever meeting you.
Love and light.

1. Chinese new year of the metal rabbit
2. My adorable dog
3. Loving supportive friends
4. Trust
5. Wakan Tanka
6. Endless possibilities
7. Amazing people on this amazing earth
8. Air Water Fire Earth
9. Meditation
10. Chanting
I went to an amazing chanting circle and felt great energy and support from my amazing group. I was seeking support as I have been supporting a dear friend who is on the terrifying threshold of leaving her abusive husband. I feel my friends terror at just considering the possibility of leaving him. I understand that terror. I had recently considered a taking a big step in my growth which is also a big risk, and the terror that came with just considering it, stopped me. And that's okay. Sometimes we need to jump off that cliff with deep faith and trust and to build that faith, there may be a lot of cautiously looking over the edge and running away. When the decision is made, the jump will happen. Sending much love and light into the world.
