“Healing is not the disappearance of what has shaped us. It is the redemption of our relationship to it”.

Wow, Kitty. That is wonderfully profound. That gives me a lot of food for thought.

This really resonated with me. I’m actually working on a project right now that carries a very similar message… reconnecting with what it means to live intentionally and to be present in the curation of our own stories.

There’s something powerful about shifting from trying to “fix” what’s hard to learning how to be in relationship with it. Your words captured that so beautifully.

I’m grateful for this reflection today. I’m looking forward to reading more of your work. I especially loved your opening line, “May the light you feel outward guide you to the light within you.” I’ll definitely be keeping those words close as I move through this week.

Lindsay, I am so grateful for you writing and that you resonate with connecting with the wisdom of your own story! I think that we are entering a time of deepening connections, beginning with the connection we have with our own self so that we may more powerfully connect with others. At this time of disconnection and feeling fractured about one another, I think intuitively we recognize our hunger for creating more intentional relationships.
