Carolyn shares: I am not good at being sick. I seem to be sick at the most inopportune times. I have been sick for five days. My usual first thought is that I am sabotaging myself. Five days is a good long time to sit with this a belief that I would rather be sick than continue with my actions toward living as my real and full self. Sara's daily inspiration share of yesterday touched a tender place. Can I just receive the truth of what is: my body is suffering? What if I could just honor that? No interpretation, just honor what is. I have watched myself fight staying in this awareness. I prefer my own judgments. Yet the gift of this moon cycle-honor the truth of what is, as Sara wrote, brings the gift of shifting perceptions. I am asking Creator for clarity, what is being asked of me during this bout of illness? I hear, "rest, sleep, trust".
Self Reflection: What perceptions am I asked to shift that I may Truly honor my life, my relationships, my work, My world?
I have heard you assert before that, for you, illness is a sign of self-sabotaging. You are stepping into deep and nuanced waters, Carolyn. May you emerge healed with a better understanding of yourSelf. Much love.
ReplyDeleteThanks Karen; You remind me that sometimes illness is a sacred journey leading to transformation. As Winnie the Pooh says, "Oh Bother!". I am grateful.
