"It's weird how it takes something really bad to point out who's really there for you. When it comes down to it, true friends are as rare as true love." - Lisa De Jong

June 14, 2019

I've never been one to have or want lots of friends and as I get older I appreciate even more the rare REAL of the people I let into my life. Sure, I sometimes make "mistakes", but now more than ever I am truly thankful and grateful for those friends I can say are FAMILY.

The first thing that popped out to me with this memory was the word "disconnect". Even the piece itself, the image I chose to accompany it, despite knowing how I felt and the event that caused the expression of emotion this was re words, immediately to mind came this sentence from Brene Brown's "Daring Greatly": "Even if we choose to stay out of relationships and opt for disconnection as a form of protection, we're still alive and that means vulnerability happens.". There is that word again - DISCONNECT[ion]. For some reason, even before the full moon last week (and seeing what had been written about what it "meant"), I had felt it on my soul to reread this book (the first time was back in 2015, when I bought it after the K-Do Alliance photoshoot, which was a true example encompassing a lot of what "daring greatly" is-another story), and opened it again that night. I do not believe in coincidences, and going through it again, with almost every part of it, something comes to mind of words exchanged or events occurred this year, moments and people so much as to that day or the one before in what reading "on", making me realize so much and speaking deep to my soul. Every time you read a book, you "see" something new or understand more or perspective re enlightenment changes, I believe (at least for me, and sometimes I see things that did not before, or the same things I highlighted in the past resound, albeit for different reasons), and this is no different. The difference though, is me; I am more AWARE OF ME than I was when I read this in 2015 (which was really only just at the beginning of my "awareness awakening", one might say the true cusp in discovery of "feminine bloom" and path to awakening the "goddess" that was later birthed in moonlight and started walking in and owning her power...but I digress)... EVERYTHING about now is making me look hard at myself, ask myself "why", as I challenge the "rules" (not what one might think, and certainly very different to societal expectations, particularly those re "norms" mentioned in this book) I had made for myself and dared think of what it would mean to "allow" myself a life that might include everything I had once created "disconnect" from. ESPECIALLY as this year started out so uncharacteristically, consciously choosing (even if unconsciously "daring greatly") to throw aside everything that I would normally have done for reasoning as simple and as complicated as "new year" and "time for change", etc. and being open to, that small but ultimately big decision snowballing through 2019 right up until this moment, the epitome of everything "DARING GREATLY" is about and on it speaks. Even the quote posted re "memory" three years ago ("Some people are just loners. It's that simple." - Jimmy Callahan, The Wedding Ringer) jumps out at me with the challenge: But is it? IS it that simple? Or is it simply how you have chosen to be because of something that not even you were truly aware of until you began to question it? Looking back at this week, everything that has happened - NONE of it is INsignificant, and NONE of the people my soul has dared to "dare greatly" with are either... NO more disconnect. Not from me. Not for them. Life's too short. They're too precious. EVERY MOMENT MATTERS...

"Her twin nature, and his erratic and varying mood changes may create some differences but they will have to deal with these and reunite everytime the distance becomes too long  to match up again to show the love and care that one holds for the other."

I've done it. You've done it. Back and forth. Give and take. But we know. What we are. We are ok. Being this way. We accept it. We like it. How we are. What we have. A freespirit connection. Two energies colliding. Creating magic with. When we're together. It just us. Able to be. Simply just be. Who we are. As we are. We are happy. We are free. Simply just being.

Why does "I love you"
have to mean
"I want a relationship"?
Because I do (love you)
but I don't
(in any traditional sense).

THE GEMINI WOMAN

The Gemini woman smiles as she falls apart. You hurt her and she moves on; she forgives, but she never forgets, and once her trust has been torn, it may as well be broken, because very few broken things in her world ever get mended, and she does not bother to fix many of them, having the attitude that some things are better broken than together. No matter how precious that trust once was to her, she will do her best to try and forget, even if she can’t, only because if she always remembers she allows it power to destroy her all over again; even as she appears strong and invulnerable to the world, her demeanour a mask of coldness and strength, her heart an icy stronghold that does not seem to have any holes in it, her mind closed with a passion of fury, even as icy and fury are nothing close to what is truly going on inside her. She will smile when she looks at you, take part in life with you, but there are tears in her soul, falling with every painful smile, every look in your eyes, every word she speaks, knowing that you do not know and do not want to know and will never know, just having your own perspective on who she is and why she does what she does. She knows that people do not want to know the truth of another’s soul and so she is a chameleon for every person that crosses her path, a different creature for every man, even as every face she shows is an aspect of her and not a genuine mask, for she is a woman with many personalities, like a diamond in how multifaceted she is; but also like a diamond, albeit rough at times, in how she appears and comes across, for not everyone will see her sparkle and shine, but only glimpse the promise of the beauty that she could be.

Shallow and superficial are not for me. Smalltalk, while polite, is not what my soul craves. It hungers for truth and tenacity, to dive deep into waters that would scare most. It doesn't matter if I've known you moments or eons, the words that you do or do not speak, can change everything. And in the times when words are not necessary, more important than ever is energy that connects in comfortable and understood silence. Connection is everything.

We all have that one who we want to travel with. Even those who do almost everything alone have one we desire to adventure and explore with, experiencing new things and "first times". Sometimes that realization hits when least expected. So much that it startles and can seem "scary" at first, but slowly comes to make sense.

We all have someone who we shine like no other with. Who brings out our inner child, the glow of utter and complete happiness undeniable to any who witness you together. That makes others wonder what secret there is between you that creates such sparkling delight in your energy.

We all have a soul with whom we inspire others. Simply just in our "being", because when we are with them we are changed, growing and glowing.

True friends are rare. And a tribe of soul sisters even rarer. But they are there. And there is little more powerful than such a tribe... Of women who understand each other. Who are not intimidated or threatened by other women. Who do not seek competition with other women. But who seek to empower each other, give strength and support one another, individually and collectively as they journey through life... There is great power in such a tribe. Real inspiration in that power. To power through and conquer every heartache, setback and curveball that life throws. Power through true unity and friendship... Be one of those women. One of the beautifully broken souls that builds up other beautifully broken souls, encouraging a life of happiness and healing (for all encountered). Someone who creates and cultivates a culture of "tribe" with other soul sisters. The rare friend who is "family" true to soul...

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

Your life is but one in immeasurable threads in the tapestry of life and will touch more than you know, crossing over and under, between and through, even wrapping around others. In the same way, other threads will come in contact with your own, some wrapping tight around you to create a mess, albeit a beautiful mess. Yet no matter how much beauty in the initial entanglement, time has a way of revealing the true colour and nature of each thread, and should those that surround you dramatically or seek to forcibly change the unique vibration of your own, you must determine whether to stay and let the mess become an ugly ruin, extricate your thread as best you can, or cut it off and allow what was lost in the mess be as you start a new weaving in a different part of life's tapestry.

Yes, there are better
men, stronger men, out there, but
my heart, it chose YOU.

Almost all my life
I've wondered what "home" feels like;
Now I know: It's YOU.

When we're together,
it's simple. But when we're not,
the world interferes.

your first love; even greater
to be your last too
