Yes. Vulnerable moments can be there too. Totally. Even if it’s fucking uncomfortable.
Some days you just gotta take a moment to sit down with yourself. Or with your mom 😊
To lower all the barriers and get ‘naked’ to see what’s actually going on, to acknowledge and receive it, to change it and out-create it.
I’m not pretending to be enlightened. I don’t have it all ‘right’, nor do I have the right f*cking ‘conscious’ question or awareness all the time. Especially for myself that is. For others it’s way easier and a totally different story.
When you are sitting on top of your own mountain with a head full of ideas, questions and ‘have to’s’ – like I was today and yesterday – it just such a blessing to have people in your life that have your back and be with you, like my mom has been all my life, with a question, a different perspective or simply being.
I used to think I was a failure when I asked for help, which is not true. I’ve learned that by now, and still it’s a practice for me to ask for help when I require it and to actually receive it.
I used to think that being vulnerable is weak or pathetic, which is not true either.
Being truly vulnerable with myself usually feels like I’m falling apart, which might be true in a way cause I get to look at what is bugging me, fucking me up or the conclusions that I use to define me, which stop me from Being creative.
The ‘good’, ‘bad’, ‘beautiful’ and ‘ugly’.
I don’t really expose it a lot.
And in case you didn’t notice: life’s not always pretty folks 😊
Everyone has their shit and whobbles going on. Including me. It’s ok.
And usually after those highly uncomfortable moments where I just wanna kill everyone and everything, I come out being greater. WAY greater.
OMG I’m so grateful for my mom and I know not everyone has such a relationship with their parents. One that keeps on inspiring each other to be greater and greater and allowing you to be as you are in every 10 seconds.
Thank you mama Renée, you rock my world.
So happy I choose you 😉
❤️✨💙
And this beautiful song by Mike Posner sums it up quite well 🙏🏻
What if Being You in the first place is a way greater and healthier space to function from? So you can be an even Greater contribution to yourself and everything and everyone around you?
