As I walked by myself —-with myself, the sea breeze said hello, the sun did too and the birds.

I cannot help but feel proud of myself

For achieving all I have. For letting go of what I have

So I could come to this path

Walking step by step with awareness

I thought of my early experiences, distant experiences and recent experiences. There were sounds, images, emotions coming up.

And I allowed them and liberated them with walking

I remembered the Vietnamese monk Thich Nhat Hanh . I remember a meditation he conducted and brought us to the point of inviting our ancestors our tribe to breathe with us w

And I, I just had to invite my ancestors my tribe my family my friends my colleagues and even people who have crossed paths with me in however minute moments whether happy or less happy ones—— to walk with me and to experience the present . And in that healing everything else that is not the present

I checked in with myself and felt lighter afterwards

The point is in awareness

And the intention the power and ability to heal is always there in each and every moment

So long as we will!

I had to say thank you to my husband, because amidst it all, he was the one to encourage me to pick and to do things I really enjoy

I thanked him for his support and the opportunity has given me , by supporting the family —- so I could walk at this time and to do the things that resonated with me

And walking is such a precious experience

I thank myself for the opportunity too, and to the universe and my guardian angels and dharma protectors who have always been with me around me

I want to become a better version of myself and I know I already have and is really for my next professional triumph

And that has come with honoring and acknowledging the experiences I have had with the people who have come my way

To walk each and every step with mindfulness , have the opportunity to free experiences and to experience freedom with no worries—- yes I have been tying myself to worry and fear for the longest time —- and walking with myself helped me see that freedom I could have without these all. Too precious!!!
