Poem: This New Start
Manage episode 418261124 series 2933501
I wrote this poem as a letter to myself as I was reflecting on what this summer has taught me, the healing my experiences provided. It was a moment of realisation, that I never made a wrong decision, that I was always guided, even when it didn’t appear like I was. Life is always on your side and there’s no destination to reach, only the whole essence of who you are to remember. My intention is that these words activate a glimpse of that remembrance that exists within you. The remembrance of the love that you are.
If I could place you in my heart
Never would I starve
Because the love I feel
In this new start
How it’s taught me to heal
To grow
To remember that I know
What I know
What you’ve bestowed on me
Makes my heart shout with glee
Because here we are together
Not three
Not separate
Not desperate
But to the point where we’ve finally met with our pasts
Where at last we walk out of a cage
Because we know we were born free anyway
So now I’ll bathe
In the truth
That I’ve always known what to do
Because I took myself back to the places where I grew
Without knowing who I was
Without knowing I could be all that I am
I came back to give myself permission
To release the wishing
To see what I was missing
And that I always made the right decision
Followed the knowing of each moment
Each step
Never did I neglect myself
I delved deep to come back to what is true
That I always knew
That I was always enough
That I was always love
That I know how to trust
So now with an open heart
As I’ve remembered who I am
A new start will emerge
Now that I put all of me first
And see that I deserve
To be seen, loved and heard
And from this love I choose to serve
Those who have forgotten their own worth
Be the space for their light to shine
Because sometimes
The greatest healing, is to see yourself through another’s eyes
with love,
Emma

"Your challenges are welcome here without judgement, your celebrations are welcome here without envy. Yet, if you notice yourself feeling judgemental or envious, that too, is welcome. Whether one month you’d like to talk about what’s happening at work or in your business, and the next month it’s what’s happening in your personal life, with your children, your partner, everything is welcome. All I ask is that the women and men who join this space, come with an open heart and mind, with the intention to share honestly and support the other women in this space with compassion and kindness."
