Pam's Daily Wave...

Hello and Welcome to Wednesday from my Atlantic Life in Hatteras 😊

And the crazy weather continues.... today the high is to be almost 70 degrees - and both sunny and rainy!!!!

Yesterday I spoke about how we all have "patterns of behavior", some good and some not so good....and, how we have the ability to change those patterns, if we so choose to (albeit with a little hard work 😉).

Did you think of any patterns you need to change? Are you, your harshest critic?

This morning I suddenly remembered a poem that I had read some time ago, one I thought might be a good time to share...

"We have some patterns to dissolve,

You and I,

But we can do this together.

We can get through this and come out the other side.

Please know that I love you right now

and I’ll keep loving you on this ride.

I’m ready to release the stories in my head

And forgive myself for believing everything

My inner critic has ever said.

I know there is healing ahead.

I am done making self-love conditioned upon

everyone else’s status and where they stand.

If I can only be the best in comparison,

I travel a road that doesn’t lead home.

I am ready to see now how I can be home,

Belonging to the universe wherever I go—

Standing in truth, wherever I stand.

Let us breathe bravely.

Let us shine through what we thought we couldn’t do.

I will serve you, dear heart.

I am ready to listen to you.

I’m ready to honor the truths

that were too hard to respect when I was younger.

There’s this new hunger within,

A call to befriend who has always so wished

To be a friend.

I will meet you in my silence and pain,

For you have met me there on so many occasions.

I will honor you until I hear you speak my name,

For I have not listened for so long.

I will follow you down the paths you point out to me.

I am grateful for your resilience, dear heart.

You’ve stuck around this long,

Walking through the treacherous rain with me,

Pointing to the moon when I forgot to see.

You’ve guided me this far.

You’ve traveled very far, my dear heart.

Come in. Rest. Take off your coat.

Let me serve you tea"

I think there are times in our lives when our heart knows the best path forward for us, but so often we ignore it, seeking counsel instead from our cerebral bestie....our head - because we think it is logical, sensible, rational and more informed. But maybe sometimes, it's not logic, rationality or information that we need......Maybe, we just need to listen to what our heart is telling us and go to where our heart is pulling us to 💗

Are You listening to Your Heart? or always ruled by your head.....?

Until Next Time...

Take care, Stay safe and....please take some time out of your day to listen carefully to your heart, it may be telling your something you should hear ❤

Love and Hugs,

Pam
