I have just finished Girl Wash Your Face by Rachel Hollis. And I recommend. It’s an easy read, a funny book and I keep quoting her.
She talks about the lies we tell ourselves. The lies we believe and repeat to ourselves. And repeat. And repeat. And repeat.
As a grieving Mama, I thought ‘what lie do I tell myself?’
‘I should be beyond my grief.’
‘I should be beyond my grief.’
‘I should be beyond my grief.’
Truth is I am no. Heck no. Nope. No sireeee.
And when I believe my lie, my real feelings fester and my voice is subdued. Sometimes my voice is all I have and fester is such an ugly word.
This weekend, a dear friend sent me this gift; the video below with the wish that Samantha would have been in the Super Power Baby Book.
I sat in a coffee shop with non-lie alligator tears streaming down my face embracing my Christmas blend. Vulnerable, raw, honest.
Thank you dear friend for helping me live in my truth.
Watch here.
