I wanted to share this short poem about you being here, and what a miracle that is, in case it's something you need to hear today.

If you like this, please let me know! Maybe I'll turn it into a poetry print.

Trust me: your being here is a miracle.

But... if you feel like your life is missing something, definitely get my Belonging guided meditation. It'll fill you up with purpose, with peace, when you forget how incredible it is that you're alive.

I Want You to Live: A Poem About the Miracle of Your Existence

I want you to close your eyes and imagine the stardust that makes up your very soul. I want you to wonder at all the light and color and time it took to bring you here.

I want you to take a minute away from your everyday reality to feel the beating of your own heart. To sense just how remarkable it is that you're here at all.

And then I want you to open your eyes and see all the beauty still left around you, and sense the beauty that's still just budding within you. 

I want you to sharpen your senses, and put all of yourself into each moment, wherever you go. And wherever you find yourself, I want you to also find your reason for being here, for being you.

You only need to open your heart and feel this simple truth coursing through you: you are here to live. For to live is to give the universe the gift of knowing itself.

Tell me:

What here did you most need to read today?

Tell me in the comments. I'd love to know!

Remember: when the sun's out but you don't feel it in your heart, maybe you're more like the moon, and it's the darkness that makes you shine. (yes, this one's a print, too!)
