From the crown of my head...I reset and show up to speak up



I was on a very special journey in September, a spiritual journey directed by my own spirit and I alone knew what I had to do and did do. One of the things I had to give up during that time was World Pulse. I mean I have come to accept  the "price to pay" on each of these my journeys (I have had 4 this year) often required to give up what I love most throughout the journey.



I equally have to do something symbolic for myself or someone at the end of the journey, and it made sense to me that this time I do it to/on myself since the theme of this journey was simply 'The Self'.



What is it about my self I had to learn about for month? Why couldn't I share the lessons this time like previously? I didn't even have a fellow pilgrim to journey with like in May. But, I was determined, disciplined and dedicated. I did learn so much, and am ready to say and do much more as my spirit leads. 



October is a very special month for me. My first son turns 18, it's mental health awareness month and also domestic violence awareness month. With all going on in the world at the moment, so much scary truth be told, I have found refuge and reassurance in my self...my core...my spirit...



Could this be a way to go for another sister or brethren out there overwhelmed by so much? I pressing the reset button and showing up from the crown of my head to the some of my feet...



May someone be inspired, motivated and encouraged
