Heaven is Here - Joy (a Poem)
“I was convinced life was meant to be hard.
Relationships like sandpaper
Joy- fleeting
Pleasure- sinful
My body- bad
Ease- not to be trusted
Rest- earned
I crumpled up those beliefs, threw them in the fire,
watched them burn bright until they were nothing
and began again to claim my joy.
I choose to believe Heaven was always here.”
What were you taught about your intuition?
What is your gut reaction to things going WELL?
Some of us were taught that enjoying ourselves means we are doing something bad. Even worse, some of us don’t even know how to define joy for ourselves.
Many of us were told (verbally or through conditioning) NEVER to outshine another or be “too much.”
Today, let’s start paving a new path in our brains, tighten up the leak and start to TRUST the joy.
Your fullness is not too much.
Heaven is here.
