We need to let go of the way that we have been taught things have to be done. We are the ones that decide how we react and act in our lives. We are the one who chooses our own destiny.
I believe there is a destiny calling to each of us and in every moment the path is unfolding before our feet. I believe that we are masters of creation, that we are powerful beyond measure and can do anything that we want.
Starting over at any juncture of our lives can be a daunting prospect. As we look to a new path away from what was and we strike out on a new adventure, it can be hard at times to stay centered, upbeat and focused on the road ahead.
There is life that springs up from the chaos That scatters like fallen snow at your feet, New growth through even the thickest of fogs; Possibility shining on the horizon Bright as the coming dawn. You shall find your way, It whispers As the old slips away, And what has yet to be Pulls lovingly at your skin.
One of the divine feminine myths that has always called to my spirit has been the story of Lilith. Her tale of being the first wife of Adam and being cast from the Garden of Eden for her refusal to submit has always spoken deeply to my soul. I was so delighted to discover the book My Name is Lilith by Monette Chilson and illustrated by Arna Baartz.
