Healed & Whole - A Spiritual Story
There are many subjects that could easily be touched upon with this great title of being healed and whole. I have decided to climb into some personal insights as I personally enjoy reading about those myself and thought you may enjoy the real me, sharing aspects of my authentic life with a few AHA moments.
So here goes………….
I had two young children I loved more than words can express. I lived in some very conforming societies at the time, with many judgments and boxed in versions of who we should show up as. I tried to fit and it never worked very well.
I had a challenging marriage with a story I don’t need to tell because it’s very much in my rear view mirror, and I love that I’m so happy and it brought me to the here and now - thank goodness.
My two children grew and estranged from me at a pretty crazy distance.
In the early days with all the shame and feelings of loss and lack of worth, I would tell the stories of my estranged children to someone who asked if I had children. I got so bored with the sorry tale, that one day I tried it out, by simply stating the ages and gender of my children, then asking about their families. I realized in a great “AHA” moment that they wanted to share their story way more than wanting to hear about mine. What a relief. I could stop telling the story and simply hear theirs. Much better.
At first I had been thoroughly ashamed that they didn’t choose me and one of them even told me there had to be something wrong with me, as they had both made that choice. I definitely looked at that and at myself right in the eye. I knew I was doing some extraordinary and profound work on this planet and made myself feel way better at the story of that reality by saying to anyone who would listen and to myself a whole lot, this statement…
“Some people make their family their World, while others make the World their family.”
I stood strongly in the truth that I was the one who made the World my family.
As a result all the ages I missed with my adult children, were brought to me with my family of the World. I made a huge and some small differences. I found families I deeply loved who made it clear that they deeply loved me in return. It became a sweet reality and one that healed me.
I began to live my life without my children and became really happy with me and my tribes I kept finding. I told a different story and loved my story. I still do.
Healed and Whole means telling a story that makes your life work.
