A pause (for when it all seems too much)

Let me rest in my overwhelm.

Let me shift these thought patterns.

There is enough.

Enough time.

Enough resources.

Enough creativity.

Enough joy.

For me. For us.

I am not diminished by the enormity of suffering and inequality around me.

I am not diminished by the requests coming my way.

And I need not aim to be indispensable. I already am.

Let me aim for optimal functioning, with love, with enthusiasm, with spaciousness, with enoughness, with creation and community at the center.

Every time those shrinking thoughts creep up, guide me Lord/Universe/Gaia to walk away, regroup, feel into the possible, and return, return, return.

I am love.

I am fierce, mother love.

I am open, innocent, child love.

I am not defined by requests of me. I am guided by the vision we are bringing forth. I am living into a new world.

We are redefining.

I can see what’s possible.

All the rest are details.
