remember to live.

what is reunion with self? it’s when you remember everything: that you are love embodied. that you are light embodied.

that love is not meant to be earned and cannot be earned. if it’s conditional, then it’s not love; it’s your wound. it’s what your soul brought here to have others awaken for you so that you could feel it and heal it. it’s not the long list of how everyone hurt you and disappointed you and abandoned you. it’s the movie that they had to keep playing over and over until you finally realized that you were watching the story of your own wound, faithfully and unfailingly enacted for you. the movie never changed so you had to change.

you remembered that light is not chased, it is revealed and received. you become your own sanctuary when you realize you were in a prison of your own making.

every ache or struggle in your life points to a place where you’ve splintered off from yourself. where there’s a part of you that’s blocked off from the rest. it doesn’t matter who did it or when. those details matter only insofar as they help you understand more about yourself. it’s not to decode them. it’s the clues you need to decode you. and when you bring all of you back to you, that’s when your real life begins.
