In the belly of the hammock is that Inner Child seeking validation and wanting to know her own worth. I felt the hammock womb’s warm embrace, giving me assurances that all is well, in spite of my fears and insecurities. No criticisms. No need to prove anything. No need to show my worth. Just be that child in the womb, being cared for—safe, and secure. Tears don’t come out freely from this tired spirit, but I took a deep breath and just let myself be lulled within that womb.

It’s time for me to create for MYSELF what I have been creating for other people’s lives for 40+ years of my life. Now is the time for ME to step into my own light. And in doing so, I will have more impact that will help the generations to come, as I lead by example and inspiration on a much grander scale.

Through my Infinite Self, I am now able to look at my Self from a higher vantage point where I am able to reflect on every challenge that I have tackled and dealt with.

As you read through these lines, know that you are not alone. Know that you are enough– more than enough; even if the only thing that you did today was to pray and breathe. That prayer that you just did? That breathing exercise and meditation that you just finished? Those send energy and vibes into this world depleted of feelings of worthiness.

TO MY BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER: I hear your drums beating along your heartbeat that you alone can offer to the world. I see your heart above anyone else’s. That’s how people like you. You are your own Self, and you don’t let anything get in your way. That’s how you STAND OUT!
