And so the small self, the ego-mind says, "Who do you think you are? - to think you have something to offer the world, to be so audacious?

And in the stillness below, in the Truth, my soul is in peace. For I am acting, finally, in alignment with its' call. A call I too often choose not to hear.

What I am sharing by birthing my healing retreat - or anything I create - is what I am sharing here...

- myself

- my heart

-my human-ness

-my journey of healing and wholing.

This is the great journey we are all on, whether we know it or participate consciously. The journey to re-align with our source is one that has no end. This journey is all of our journey.

And the birthing, gestation and growing pains of this first creation will bring great growth and learnings.

We are divine in human bodies. We are Light, living with minds that throw up resistance, doubt and fear. In sharing my very human-ness, the protests of my ego-self and allowing myself to be vulnerable, I allow more of my truth to be seen. In creating and expressing in alignment with my soul, I honour that in me, and so in you.

Certainty is gone from my life and plans are futile. As I surrender more fully, my life becomes daily more infused with the fragrance of wonder, more joy, more love of opening to the infinite possibilities of all that is.

And so it is.

I am, to paraphrase the grace-filled words of John O'Donohue,"Unfurling myself into the grace of beginning."
