sabrinamariThis was an unbelievably important week.
I had to make a lot of decisions about who I was and what I wanted to be, and I did.
Before I left for the FoV retreat, I bought a book on impulse. I should always pay attention to what I do on impulse. My deeper self knows so much more than my conscious self does at any given moment. To be fair, one of my Geniuses told me about it months ago and I forgot since then.
But before I left I bought it.
I found two excerpts, each with fragments that remind me of my week, of the work of this retreat, and say so much to me.
It looks like this book is going to be important. It looks like the woman who wrote it is in sync with me.
"I've watched people give in to fear and rationalize playing it safe. They circle back to the fire, eventually.
I've heard countless 'Hell yes! I'm worth so much more!' revelations. I cherish these epiphanies of self-worth the most, and seeing someone take intelligent steps toward joy, walking away from obligations and illusions that cramp their heart's desire.
This I know to be true. We are craving to play bigger, to go deeper, to shine."
