Today, I step into my Belonging. The belonging that I have given away and forgotten was my birthright. I am taking it back, and reinstating it fully into every part of my life.
It means that some people may not recognize me, as I have allowed others to consume my light, and I have shied away from sitting at the tables that I desired to be part of. It means new boundaries will be coming up and staying up.
Well, actually it means that my old boundaries will be known by others now.
I already had the boundaries, and frustration set in when others crossed them, but being a “good girl” and a “nice girl” has made me let you think that everything was ok, when in fact it is not.
It is not ok to be treated “less than” and to be cornered and unable to speak up when it didn’t feel right. Instead, frustration was simmering inside and eventually the steam needed to release.
Who saw it released? Not you, not the ones who were encroaching their will over mine. Nope, not you. My good girl didn’t let you see that part of me.
It was the ones I love most, the ones who barely crossed the boundary. They only had their little toe over it, but they got to hear that the boundary was crossed, and they were put in their place, knowing that I wouldn’t allow that in my energy.
I realized that I always belonged. I have been perfect since I was born. A beautiful light to shine for the world. I was a little “Dolly,” as my great grandmother called me. And my belonging to sit at any table has been with me since the day I came into this world.
Nothing has changed, except for my belief that that perfection has dimmed.
My belief now is that I Belong.
I get to bring my Belonging with me everywhere.
Only I get to say if something feels aligned with my energy or not.
My energy deserves to be in any room. I might be the bravest one in the room, and show others how to stand, and be present amongst brightly shining stars.
Have you let someone else be in charge of your belonging, too? It’s time to step into your Awakening and know you belong. You’ve got this, and are in good company.
Women walking together are going to change the world. Bring your belonging and let’s create magic.
