[Musings] Power and Control

There are a few things that have made me feel powerful or in control lately, in no order they are…

- Finally figuring out what is wrong with my grey cat Cosmo and getting him all the vet time he needs
- The lovely women and people I surround myself with daily
- Being in love with every day things I used to take for granted and appreciating the things I thought I couldn’t have. Ex: Being able to feel sun on my face on mid November with the windows open, being able to live in something that is mine and no one else’s…
- Being able to read any book I want
- Paying for my first ever writing retreat and investing in the future work
- Being able to walk up the stairs
- Cooking the first breakfast AND dinner for myself since my accident
- Telling myself, yes I did make those mistakes, and no I don’t need to let them have a hold on me forever
- Being able to fast 16 hours of the day when I need a reset
- Writing…there is nothing more freeing than taking someone stuck in your head for so long and finally typing it, or putting it down on paper, or saying it out loud… Giving myself the ability to put what I create into the universe.

Whoever is reading this… I hope you allow yourself to do THAT difficult thing for yourself. The thing you thought you couldn’t do and have been waiting for the right time to start… this is the sign you were waiting for.

Yes you are strong enough, yes it is time. You are capable and you are magic.
