A Letter From Myself

I can't help but notice you seem to have forgotten something. I know how much you'd like to forget that things weren't always this great for you, but what does that achieve?

Remember when you cried at the end of the museum workshop because you were so tired you didn't know how to go on? And when you turned up at work and tears just rolled down your cheeks and you didn't even notice? Someone had to point it out to you. You didn't feel as if you were crying- but you were!

Then the months at home just lying on the sofa. Remember when your sister had to leave you sat on the wall in the middle of nowhere because you couldn't walk? She ran back for the car...

Why are you choosing to forget all this? What some people take years to recover from you got over in a few short months. I know, I know- you don't want to define it or yourself, but you have to recognise that you drew on your unique resources to get well, and you chose a bigger life, despite not feeling as if you were worth much at all.

If you didn't listen to the whispers of your body, if you didn't listen to the shouts, you did listen to the screams and that's more than some people ever do. You learned that you are the source of EVERYTHING that shows up in your life, and if you created it; you can change it.

You learned, painstakingly, to tune into what your body was telling you, and what made your body sing, and you began to build a new life based on this information. Ok, so you made some 'mistakes' (as you see them). But don't you know that every single choice, action thought has led you to be exactly where you are NOW. Those 'mistakes' are just as much a part of your present as the 'good stuff'.

So when you look back, recognise the power of you; the power to choose a new future, with every thought, every action, and every vibration of your being. And know that without this you could never have guided so many people to choose a bigger life. Showing them to look back at their choices and strengths and build forward to a greater future.

What one choice can you make today to create the future you're asking for, right away?
