as the feather falls
a miraculous moment of Divine affirmation

y’all, today something so significant and special happened in the space holding for the women of Tricap and their ongoing journey of recovery, healing, and reuniting with their own wisdom, power, and worth… in the space of getting organized two women were speaking to one another and i just had close enough proximity to be able to listen. they were talking about shame and how they no longer needed to feel that shame as they both were naming how it does not serve them, does not support them, and does not hold them with any sort of truth. they were validating their own experience with that heavy sensation of badness, the very painful idea we ingest all too often that makes us believe we are unworthy, that we in some way deserve the heaviness, hardships, and despair, and that in no way do we belong or contribute benefit for being exactly as we are. it’s toxic. It’s a toxin. a tar. and if we aren’t careful and caring for ourselves, we can absolutely get stuck in all its suffocation.
as these two women changed their own internal narrative and relationship with shame, saying no more will i feel this way, as well as the mirroring to one another that its time to let this shame go, a feather came floating from the sky and landed right there in front of them and me and us all…
it was so powerful. and in all ways felt so on purpose. like so timely and Divinely right there for us like an ah-ha you’re on it, I hear you and I hold you and I hope you know my love is going no where. “I” being Love and all the ways the Universe takes form and flight for us, “I” as in the most capital of I’s, the God of your understanding, their understanding, and mine.
we just got real quiet together and watched it gently land on the earth. amazed and in awe of how it could be. and yet, to me it feels like a gift that can generate more giving in all its sacred simplicity.
we are choosing to let the shame go and we are celebrating feeling all that’s been buried beneath and all that’s beyond it too. i feel so blessed to witness such miracles, and hope with all my heart and spirit, you receive such gifts too.
