Finding Voice

When I was 20, I listened.
My 30's were spent reading, thinking and wondering.
Then in my 40's, while painting pictures in my studio, I realized I had learned many things.

I have entered the 5th decade now and I find that it is time to assimilate and synthesize all the above
and to speak.
The time of tending soil and mending roots has now come to a close. I pray for guidance and strength to:

Speak who I am.
Trust that I shall be supported
by sources both known and unknown to me now.
Allow my feelings of separateness to dissolve
while allowing my wholeness to come forward and lead the way
even when I don't know how or why.

I have absolutely no idea how my gifts affect others. The value is hidden from me. Yet, when I speak my spiritual truth revealing Self through words or paintings, there is a connection made with another; I sense the presence of grace and in that moment healing occurs- the healing of fragmented souls. Essential spirit connecting through the human experience strengthens both the human and the soul bond.
