Regeneration, Regrowth, Restoration & Resiliency
Have you noticed the odd places new growth can occur? Between a sidewalk crack, out of a stump, in an abandoned parking lot... in fact, the evacuated Chernobyl is bursting with new green growth and wildlife that assures us life continues.
Where in your own life have you noticed resilient growth? Perhaps after an illness, or a tragedy, or maybe even after a season in your life that was rocky. There is so much in the moment that seems overwhelming and insurrmountable, yet some how a flicker of hope reveals itself and invites you into new growth.
At times this growth can be very distinct from who you've been before or paths you've traveled previously. Other times, it is a renewed excitement to engage in life fully; forging a new path that blooms out of a deeper part of you yearning for the light of day.
How do you express this new growth? It may be a new job opportunity or an intimate discussion with a close friend. It could be a vocational calling that leads you into service for others or it may be giving you permission to serve yourself, finally. It may be out loud in the world or it may be quiet, within you. Your only honoring is to give voice to this sacred growth.
It would be easy to admit that Covid-19 was the perpetrator in tilling the soil of my soul, however I have gone through a season. In fact, it would be radical to admit that the whole coronavirus pandemic has actually called me more into myself and out of the funk I was in for a few years.
Crazy. Yet here I am! I am ready to venture forth into the world in a more meaningful way and bring my new crazy ass self with me :)
