Solitude never felt lonely to me. It has always been a safe place I retreat when I want answers, clarity and truth. It strips away dogmas, prejudices, misconceptions and fears so I have the ability to make choices from a place of tranquility, strength and compassion. It reminds me of who I am and what I want. It gives me access to my deepest wounds so I can heal the heart and recognize my own needs. It offers insight into my innermost desires. It awakens wonder and creativity. It encourages me to stay curious and question everything. It empowers me to be my most authentic self. It grants me the courage to trust myself. It deciphers the mysteries I am ready to see. It inspires me to open my heart and welcome the gifts being offered to me. It takes me home…to myself, where love resides and truth is inevitable. In this place, I know one thing for certain: this breath I breathe is enough.
