The power of discovering who you really are

In life, all chaos manifests for the same underlying purpose. To restore balance.
I’ve been pondering a lot about change, balance & acceptance whilst going through the ebs and flow of life.

I’d be lying if I said this year has been easy. 
Going through a break up brought with it an obvious sense of questioning & a touch of uneasiness at the prospect of change. 

For some time ‘Who am i’? became a common theme in my life.
You could say it sat very prominently at the forefront of my mind.
It’s only now that I have the answer and funnily enough, it’s a lot simpler than the amount of energy I invested in finding an answer.
“I am”. 
I accept myself. RIGHT NOW, AS I AM, IN THIS VERY MOMENT & surround myself with only those who accept me, for me. RIGHT NOW. AS I AM. IN THIS VERY MOMENT.

The answer that I so longingly searched for came in the form of a book.
“I am”, by Howard Falco was presented to me by my lovely friend Scott, at the most perfect time and it warped my perceptions completely.

This book simply reminded me that freedom comes from choosing how you perceive & react to every experience in every moment. If you remain equanimous to all that life throws at you, all will flow and you will grow.

Your life is based entirely on who you believe who you are.
Every single moment is an opportunity to expand.
You are the author of your story. You & only you.

I wrote a poem.

~ Decisions that shape destiny ~
An intuition. A feeling. A knowing.
No lies, blame or ill feelings
A hard truth
An acceptance
Utter rawness
Complete Transparency
The need for happiness
A seamless seperation
A beautiful sadness
Wild emotion
Sometimes tame
Other times uncontrollable
Sitting comfortably
Restlessly
Accepting the impermanence of all
Feelings, thoughts, emotions, life, love
Solitude
Self dependence
Reevaluation
The unknown
A trusting
A surrender
A beautiful memory
