Dear one,

It will take more than joy and ease to create your ‘Best Self'.

Because the misalignment is part of the alignment, just as the fracture is an integral part of your greater wholeness.

Your future ‘Best Self' is not made up of only goodness. 

The best part of her is when she faces the fight, the loss, and the struggle, and chooses to hold herself through it anyway.

Manifestation is desire made into matter and the very nature of desire is to bring life into what has yet a heartbeat.

Desire, and the creation of it, is messy and hard and black in its essence, like what existed before the universe, before the birth of the sun, before you entered the womb. 

You will therefore not embody your 'best self' in spite of your struggle - but because of it.

POEM

I met her 

when she had

fallen

so far, 

she could

no longer 

remember 

the shape 

of the sun.

I met her

when nothing

was left to 

hold onto,

and freefalling

had become

freedom.

I met her

when she

had reached

the peaty floor

and there was

only darkness

to hold her.

And was

overcome

with joy

because 

I knew she had

finally reached

a place 

where she

would be able

to plant the

seeds of her

future in:

at the very bottom.
