THE FLUTTERING BUTTERFLY

The Great Kateri

 

I am told fear is the enemy- you MUST keep it away

And then I get a little whimsical, I start delving within and letting myself be

I find a different genre of people and they speak a different language

They are saying different things from what I have heard all my life

They tell me that fear is not an enemy

It’s the self part that wants you to be safe

It’s there preventing you from free falling

But if you feel it then that’s a good sign because it means that you are doing that is bigger than you, something divine almost.

I am feeling a little whimsical that I am floating away slowly

Over here the message is, you are not meant to be okay every time. How else will you know you are alive and evolving?

Who said you have to fix everything that you feel, especially the emotions that make us uncomfortable?

All these emotions that I was told are big and bad, I am encouraged to embrace

Others feel them too and they are okay too

I am not as lonely and my problems aren’t as unique as I thought

Someone else is holding my hand, telling me and guiding me through

I am writing more too, my inner artist thriving each day.

For you too, there is only love.
