Lisa Augustine Glasier

I am a deep feeler. I’ve often wondered, especially during times of great loss, how life would unpack if I allowed my feelings to BE, to be okay. What if I didn’t pressure myself to “hurry up and be better already” but remained open-hearted towards my tender, grieving self… how would the path of loss-grief-heartache-grief-disappointment-grief look then? How would it feel then, to be authentic with myself, to be honest about how deeply difficult learning to live again really is? What then?

Write hard and clear about what hurts.

Ernest Hemingway

And so, I journaled. Wrote something every day. I allowed life to pour out through my written words. I surrendered. I embraced. I created space. And I waited.

Journal writing is a voyage to the interior.

Christina Baldwin

And I slowly, slowly – fits and starts, one forward two back some days – began to heal. To breathe again. To hope. To believe. To smile. And, to my great surprise, to laugh.

I found that living through difficulties – surviving my Dark Night Of The Soul – meant experiencing life on the edge, in a space where things were raw, genuine, sometimes overwhelming. It meant taking a good long hard look at my beliefs, owning my decisions, and remembering my power. It meant forgiveness, compassion, and courage. It meant knowing when to stay and when to surrender. And, ultimately, it meant thriving.

When we endure such trials, we will be forever changed. No longer swimming in the shallow, moved by ego, we find ourselves diving into the depths and allowing the Flow to guide us.

I acknowledge your painful experience. I know the journey you trek. That said, I promise to always see you through the eyes of Source/God/Love as triumphant and wholly victorious. You are not a victim and I refuse to see you that way. I am here beside you to light the path and to help you remember the light within you… and to witness you shine again.

Writing eases my suffering… writing is my way of reaffirming my own existence.
