magnificence, revisited

today
stand tall, walk proud
even if you’re not feeling capable

tomorrow
think back, acknowledge strength
remember how you fought your way through

today
push limits, applaud progress
even if you’re not feeling confident

tomorrow
reflect often, recognize grit
remember how you never gave up

today
ignore naysayers, risk jumping
even if you’re not feeling courageous

tomorrow
consider growth, appreciate movement
remember how truly magnificent you were
 
 
we are always seeking and searching and exploring, always becoming. in doing so, we try to make sense of our existence. we attempt to mold it into the most perfect blend of happiness and thrills. into what we, as individuals, see as contentment.

we need to revel in good moments, even now, during this bewildering pandemic. we need to allow authentic soul recovery and creative discovery to transpire. we need to treat ourselves with kindness, with admiration, with love. paving the way for our future selves to beam at the memories.
 
 

 
 
let doubt become a way to reroute, and apprehension a new invention. let fear become the tip of the spear, and let fight transform into delight.

no more retreating. strive to arrive, dazzling yourself with your essence. and one day, in the not-so-predictable-at-the-moment future, meeting me at villa magnolia for THE ARRIVAL . . . a magical week of epiphany and connection.
