In their pursuit of happiness, I often hear people say that they have followed their path in life, they have the career they always wanted, a loving family the ability to easily acquire all the things they want. Yet they quietly share that there also exists an emptiness within them. I wonder about the term empty, what does it really mean? Can you fill this emptiness? I don’t think so, I believe that is what we try to do in many forms, be it food, buying stuff, alcohol, the list goes on… the emptiness still remains. Perhaps, the emptiness is really more like a vacuum, a black hole and the more we stray from our life purpose and ignore what brings us joy and ignites our passion. The more intense the pull or vacuum becomes. Somewhat of a defense mechanism for the soul. Underneath the many layers and experiences we have in our lives lies the answer. The way to disconnect this pull is to step into your soul purpose. Layer by layer begin to shed the beliefs you have held for so long and allow your light to shine. Breakthrough the blocks that were created by experiences you have had in your life. Ultimately, it is about giving yourself permission to “be YOU” It seems so simple, yet it can be such a struggle. However, the moment you become aware of this, is the moment you will begin to change. To be powerful is to express yourself fully and share your unique voice in the world. To be powerful is to fully embrace your unique gifts and share them with joy and passion. To be powerful is to listen to that part of you that already knows who you are becoming and take action with every awareness. I give you permission to step out into the world and be “YOU”…try it, it feels great. There is a beautiful song which I absolutely love, appropriately named “Empty” by Ray LaMontagne which I have shared a link to below. There is a wonderful line “well I looked my demons in the eyes, lay bare my chest, said do your best to destroy me”….to me he is saying…I am me, take it or leave it.
