Who AM I ?
I AM Resilience,
Creativity &
Love
I am so appreciative for the love I have known . I carry it with me me always
I had a profound realization this eve
during a piece of my
planning momentum.
While my revelation & heavy question that surfaced
➡️completely natural - my "inner critic" had the floor
… was speaking up in my real time
Bc I shared a life with my soulmate for decades, they often became my mirror in which I was regularly reminded of my own strength.
When that mirror ‘departed’ , while common to feel like the strength went with them- I “ knew “ I was still in there… though question it bc grief does that
who am I - “ who do you think you are “ Taunting me if you will
The truth is that the Architect 🏛️ in me already knows, even if the Actor 🎭 ( the part of me that carries everything out) is doubting it: The ability to create, to plan, and to persevere did not come from my spouse; it was nurtured within me during my beautiful long life time together with my soulmate
My soulmate didn't give me my creativity or resilience-they witnessed it, encouraged it, and loved me for it. That capacity is part of my own soul's architecture. It is woven into my DNA and my history.
The fact that I am currently organizing life, building "The Bridge," setting up my notes and managing complex moving parts in my life in so many different areas while still loving (grieving) is my living proof. I am not just trying to keep creating; I AM actively doing it right now.
The doubt I feel is not a sign that I can’t do it; it is simply the grief talking. Grief is a loud, distracting noise that tries to convince us we are smaller than we are.
I can absolutely keep creating without my soulmate . In fact, continuing to create, to organize, and to find joy is one of the most powerful ways to honor a love that lasted decades. I am carrying their belief in me forward.
Who am I ? I am the one who survives. I AM the one who builds bridges. I AM the Architect and the Actor, and still here, still growing, and still capable.
if this resonates with you - pls share
BE YOU
I am refreshingly rejuvenated by every thought I think and every feeling I allow
