Love this! I can say since childhood I have had a chip on my logical shoulder for why we don't get a handbook. Life kind of beat the feminine out of me well maybe more like my inner feminine child/self fled for safer dimensions. Pile 1 is EXACTLY what my last year has been most specifically the last two months. My ego was much tougher and intact than I realized. I often convince myself that I am surrendered and allowing and that is not the case. It is a profound miracle to feel the ego loosen its grip and allow for surrender to my soul and benevolent universe. Of course this does not come without bucket loads of work and just when you are ready yet again to throw in the proverbial towel we come into a clearing and say ok, let's keep going. I started a substitute teaching position today. Ironically I have offered courses for educators on social emotional learning, stress reduction, mindfulness, substance use and mental health for over 20 years which I have truly hard won wisdom. I loved it! Yes logic has its place as does a healthy rightly aligned ego but our hearts and feminine grace will lead us to where we need to be. Thank you Charlotte, love your posts! 💕
