Be There for Yourself

At the end of the day 
all we can do is to 
be there for our selves.
Taking time to pause
and being present 
to our inner state, 
without judgment 
or temptation to fix.
Setting aside our urge 
to make things different 
or somehow "better".
Evaluating the pieces 
and trying to mould them 
into answers that make sense.
Or rushing to move past 
the hurt and discomfort 
of feelings and thoughts.

Being right here, allow the
strategic mind to quieten
and open your heart.
Connect to love and 
your own aching humanity.

In this vulnerable place, 
the life energy that moves 
through us all, begins 
to expand and flow.
There is the knowing presence 
that acknowledges the sadness, 
the loss and yearning,
and connection to others.

Within us all is 
a deep yearning for love,
acceptance and wholeness.
Trust that when you touch 
this tender place, the life energy 
with awaken and transform you.
Let it flow within you 
and through you.
All is well in its presence, 
in your Middle Ground.
