mama bear.
neuroplasticity.
…
you know the old adage … who needs enemies with friends like these?
bless.
it.
i can’t speak for a whole generation but I have been eyes/ears open to some doozies these last 14 years.
good news friends, enemies, acquaintances 🤪 :
neuro-plas-tic-ity.
it’s real deal. we can change. we don’t have to be the asshole. hard part, ya gotta accept it first. you gotta own it. see it. before we can make new patterns in the old brain.
my oldest is so much kinder than me. and more grounded. and more open. and humble. damn is he humble. oh and he’s more forgiving and some days I wish he would pick the low hanging fruit and let ‘er rip but grace. he’s got that too. he’s not perfect which makes me love him even more. and it’s clear so far that his choice for his one precious beautiful life is kindness. wonder what the rest of us will choose?
you know there is nothing wrong with the array of human emotions. NOTHING. actually it is uber important to feel it all. fear, anger, sadness, jealousy, insecurity - they have lessons too … it’s what we do with it and how we release it that is important.
my family has been blessed with some honest and true and supportive friends so far and I will continue grounding. opening, leaning, LEARNING … in hopes that my boys remember again and again what love, support, and friendship truly feel like.
may today find you with a heart swollen with true love, compassion, gratitude and kindness and if it doesn’t, may you find appropriate releases so it can be open to these things too.
