I AM THE OCEAN

It comes in waves

Waves that have become very familiar to me

So I consciously practice acceptance

Allowing myself to feel deeply

Being in flow as opposed to fear

Paying close attention to what surfaces

Knowing it will subside

Experiencing emotional release

Receiving inner knowing and intuitive wisdom

While most times I can ride the waves

There are times that they don’t feel like waves- as it is a constant

This time I was knocked down and felt as though I was drowning

Overwhelming feelings triggered by concerns for my health

Everything felt like a blur

Like I was trapped watching things unfold through my eyes

Yet unplugged or disconnected from reality

Tired of fighting an inner fight that I thought I could never win

Defeated

Yet in the midst of drowning

I see myself floating and elevating from the depths of the ocean

Powerful, healing, and transformative

I AM THE OCEAN
