I have always believed in something greater than myself, a higher more powerful force. I choose to call it God. I was raised in a strict Catholic home. I attended Catholic elementary school for grades first and second. My family was always at our church. I’m the only one of my six siblings that didn’t go through confirmation. My parents allowed me to investigate and study different religions once I became a teenager. I no longer was required to attend Catholic mass. Since that time, I’d estimate twenty-five years or so, I have been reading about religion and spirituality. I have attended different kinds of ceremonies in my search for what feels closest to my own truths for what symbolizes my God. I have determined it is more nature based and universal. I haven’t determined whether this force is male or female. I do however believe that this force is our creator. God indeed for each of his creations to love one another yet there will always be light and darkness within each of us. That’s the natural balance of everything, one can’t exist without the other. We also have free will and with that comes choices. I always tell my boys that they may not like everyone or everything they encounter in life but they must learn to show and practice love. I believe love is our original purpose. We can make different choices along our path to move closer to light and love or darkness and hate. This poem was inspired by those concepts.

Hi there, I'm a divorced Mom with two teenage sons. I'm also someone living with Complex PTSD and I have dissociative episodes at times related to flashbacks of my past traumas. I am an author of three books of poetry entitled "Emotional Musings", "My Soul's Language" and "My Heart's Song". All are available on Amazon. I'm always interested in new ideas and information that can better our society and the human condition as a whole. In June 2019 I embarked upon a spiritual awakening and a higher consciousness as an empath which has empowered me by helping me understand my soul's purpose in this dance called life. I'm a loving and giving person who values those qualities in others. We are all connected and require love and care. I strive to spread kindness, love, peace and light to all I may encounter. My main writing focus is on my emotions, my journey as an intuitive, emotional and physical empath and how those two things impact my creativity and evolvement. I'm also a psychic channel and shamanic healer. I hold both in person and long distance sessions that balance the chakra system and reconnect the soul to its purpose. View all posts by Ladysag77
