June 29, 2019 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2 MB

You're gonna see the way my hair falls to the side and the way I talk, it's a bit crooked cause my face has shifted.  You're gonna see the way my eyes move, and your gonna get butterflies when I look at you…. You're gonna see the way I move my head to the right a bit when I'm thinking about something I don't quite understand, and your gonna see the way I move my hands… When I talk.  When I write… When I think I'm right  And when I touch you with the inner workings of my mind.

June 28, 2019 04:00 - 3 minutes - 2.22 MB

I left and you ran away…. We didn't want to fall and I get it, falling is scary... But I'm not afraid anymore. I'm not afraid to love like I was before… I'm not afraid of losing you and the pain that could cause, and I'm not afraid of what you could do to me to hurt me like, love usually does.

Dear God,

Dear God, Will you tell me how to get to heaven? Will you open up my heart and show me how to let go, and fall in love the way I've been dreaming of? Will you take the noose off my neck so I can catch my breath? Will you take this piece of cement out of my chest, and give me back my breast? Will you take the fear out of my solar plexus so I can activate my personal power center, and be confident in who I am? Will you take the knife out of my back from all the backstabbing I let happen ...

I know, cause I caught yours too... And I know things like you do…. Things other people don't. Things on another level, cause we're both higher than most... And that's why we met the way we did, and you can try to pretend it didn't happen…but it did. And I saw it in your eyes… Love at first sight. And we both felt it....it was instant.  The way you looked at me, and then you looked away. Not because you didn't see me, but because you didn't wanna admit to yourself that I was your Do...

She was at rock bottom… She lost it all, and she lost herself in the middle of the fall. But she's strong. She's resilient. She's got a big heart, even though she's been through a lot…. And in spite of it all, she still loved to love and she had hope that could rise above. And her hope helped her find her art, and her art opened up her heart to more, and she used colour energy to raise her frequency, which helped her fall in love with herself.  And the more she practice, the higher sh...

See things for how they actually are... Not for how you want them to be.  That's what she said when she realized she was being fed a lot of lies and bullshit.  And it sucks when you first realize this... That things aren't what they seem. That someone you trusted could do such evil things. That someone you loved would go behind your back and try to take you out just so they don't have to feel alone. It sucks when you realize you can't trust anyone but yourself, but yourself can't be tr...

46. Apprieciation

June 24, 2019 19:00 - 2 minutes - 1.85 MB

I know it’s hard to find the balance of giving and receiving. And when you’re an empath it can be exhausting because you feel other people’s pain like it’s your own, and you know, you don’t like to hurt anymore than you already do, so you want to save others from hurting too. And it’s not a bad thing…. To want to help others out. But sometimes you give too much of yourself, and then yourself feels left out. And sometimes the kindness you give to others, isn’t given back in return, becau...

I’m right…  So use discernment in your kindness… See things for what they actually are not for how you want them to me.  And be aware of who you give your kindness too because if you’re giving it to those who don’t deserve it you ended up losing you…right?

You’re not seeing how God sees you… You're not seeing the overview of where you’re at and where you could go, cuz you’re stuck in the forest of sad stories, and your only doing what you know.

We get so used to telling the stories about the past because they define who we are, and they justify why we’re so messed up. And since we don’t know how to get unstuck, we stay where we’re at and we experience new stories similar to the past. And it just keeps the same stories going, doesn’t it? And even though you hate the story. You hate what happened in the past… You hate what they did and much they hurt you…. And you hate how you hurt more than they do, and you hate that you’re t...
