While we say « yes » to a lot of bullshit, it is frightening the amount of times we say « no » to things that are really important to our hearts. When it’s a question of being helped, supported and just being held, I don’t know why we just say « no »!

I have two situations with former friends this year and my way of reacting and dealing with it was just amazing! Yes, I’m going to brag! Usually, the former me would have fought for it, proving my good faith, blah, blah, blah and just spiral in fear of losing my friend. But, both of them did not trigger me at all. I just released them and wished them the best because I could see the pattern and I was like, I’m not interested anymore.

What are you waiting for? A baby, partner, job, miracle, recovery, house, forgiveness, reconciliation, hotter body? We've all waited for something thinking it's going to make our life better, more enjoyable, more fun, more lovable, and more abundant.

Having been on the spiritual path for a long time now, I can see when being spiritual is simply a trend for some. The ones pretending that they are spiritual and want peace and send peace, and blah, blah, blah, while actually their behavior is the complete opposite. The "spiritual" people who are always right and treat others like a piece of shit, but in the name of peace and being so much higher in the air than us common mortals.

Fifteen years ago, on May 19th 2009, my first husband was arrested in Miami for domestic violence while I was in Los Angeles, trying to heal. As much as that time of my life was hard, it was also the beginning of finding myself. The beginning of being a woman.
