morning meditation: tickle sessions

this morning i awoke with a heavy head, as i have a lot on my plate for the next few days. as we lay cuddled in bed after her morning nursing, i proceeded to tell babygirl, all that her mommie has coming up, i asked her to be a good girl for mommie, so i can focus and get things done, she looked into my eyes, rubbed my face softly, and proceeded to roll around laughing in bed. we played, we rolled around, we laughed, we tickled, we clapped, and i even bounced, and i gave thanks for her.

it's easy for me to say 'she didn't understand what i was asking of her', i told her i needed focus, and she wanted to play. but i feel that she understood exactly what i needed, to remember why i am doing what i am doing, to fill my morning with what brings me joy, and to remember to not work so hard, but a little tickle session will spark the creativity i rely on. 

sometimes we focus so hard, we forget what we are focusing on. 
what is your tickle session?

love.

morning meditation: shiny giftings

good morning loveahs!

this morning, as i was making good use of my 'babygirl is still sleeping' time, a thought entered my mind, on which i began meditating.

'why is it that we hide our talents/skills/ambitions/desires behind societally decorated walls, 

only coaxing them into the light, when someone else exposes their same giftings to the light?'

is it that we don't feel like leaders? or is it that we underestimate our giftings, only seeing the true potential when someone else 'goes first'?

i've been guilty of that myself, but i've given up being unhappy.
yes! if you didn't know, denying your giftings creates unhappiness. by not letting your true self shine, you are setting yourself up for misery, spiritual unsettling, and unfulfilled purpose.

give up on being second, and aim to be first, even if you are not keen on being the leader out in public, be the leader in your own life and in your purpose, if you don't know how, start by taking one baby step in the direction guided by your spirit. above all, don't underestimate your potential. you are great. you were created to be great. even if someone else can do what you do, no one else can do what you do! let that reverberate to the depths of your being, claim it in your spirit to be true, and shine love. shine.

there is such freedom in doing what you were meant to do.

love.
