The Little Girl in Me

 I want to inspire you to grow!

Inside of me is a little girl. There are many things she does not understand. There are many ways that she can be hurt. It is not useful to deny that she is there… because she is. I see her infrequently and I am beginning to get to know her.

I see her when I am upset. When I am very upset I cry; a lot. She can get hurt so very easily. It is as if she sits in a room waiting and watching for something to get upset over! I am learning to be able to go inside that room and speak to her. I tell her that even though things may go wrong… for the most part, everything is ok. I tell her that there are other beautiful things she could be doing with her time… like creating. I tell her that the mind makes things seem so much worse then they are. I tell her to have faith in uncertain times and to have grace when she gets upset. I tell her that she is ok, right now, right here; that I will take care of her… that together we will always be ok.

I am very kind to this little girl… she needs love, and acceptance, and guidance. I am helping her to grow through each situation that upsets her. I am teaching her to look for the positive outcomes and the positive people who make her life something unique. I am showing her that yes, a different life, is possible; a life full of faith.

It’s not all sad though! I saw this little girl last night when she tickled her husband just to bug him and get out a smile while he was trying to fall asleep. She is a warm, caring being this little girl inside of me… may she grow up, and bloom, and overflow with contribution!

Namaste!
