What's Your Story?

Hey You
So incredibly unique
What's your story?
What was your Mama feeling
As you grew inside in the watery darkness?
What chemicals flooded your little body
As you danced your baby dance?
How did you come in this world
Crisis or calm, wanted or unwanted?
In your early days
Were you kept safe, snug and warm?
Did you receive the nourishment and nurture you needed?
As you grew were you allowed the freedom to explore and discover?
Or was your adventurous spirit boxed in by others rights and wrongs?
The faces you looked up to
Did they affirm your loveliness
Or did they damage your growing sense of self?
What's your story beautiful one?
Your adult self may have no conscious memory of your early days
And survival instinct may have distorted your later memories
But the child inside is calling out to be heard
Slow down
Stop what you are doing
And just listen
The child holds all the truth you'll ever need
They know your story
They are your story
But is your adult self ready to drop its illusions
To unlearn, to let go and allow the child to surface?
I hope so, for your child needs your understanding and invitation
The child knows you were created to shine and live beautifully
What's your story?
Guess that's up to you
