A journal entry from today at the cafe in Florianópolis, Brazil where I currently reside. I deliberately left my cell phone at home, so that I could disconnect from everything, the world. So that I could be present to the moment, and see what shows up, and where it leads me.
I hope you enjoy ❤

It just feels….
A bit..
EMPTY.
(Sitting here, without a cell phone.)
Ooooh.
That way,
I make SPACE
For something
NEW.
I love that.
(Thoughts for the moment)
We’ve gotta love that
Which is different
After all,
We all ARE…
Already.
Be more of that which you already are…deep within.
That in itself is beautiful.
Needing nothing added to it.
We are all magnificent creations
Of God.
Creatures unique
Distinct
And for some odd reason
(to survive I suppose, survival instincts)
We spend our entire lives
trying SO HARD
Working endlessly
To be
That which we are
NOT
In order
to be
Liked
And loved,
Accepted
And approved of.
So I say again…
Be more of that which you already are,
That which you TRULY are.
And THAT
In itself
is what draws people IN…
Without us even having to
TRY
So hard.
It’s kind of like that old saying goes…
When we finally stop trying so hard
to have a thing
When we finally GIVE UP
(So to speak)
The thing that we were wanting so badly
To get,
To achieve
ARRIVES.
It literally shows up
On our doorstep
Unannounced
As a gift,
I believe.
And we get to
RECEIVE IT.
And so,
Today.
Today today today….
I BE REAL.
With who I am.
And who I am becoming.
I be
MESSY
Crazy
Deliberate
Direct.
And I invite you to do the same.
Try it on for size.
See how it feels.
See how you like it.
(I say, as I have foam on the brim of my nose, receiving odd looks from my barista and some laughter, haha)
Be the one who is reacted TO…
And I’ll be here waiting.
XOXO,
❤ Momma B
P.S. Messiness is beautiful. ❤ So do more of that, hehe 😀
