Finding the Goddess Within

She was Finally Awake

She sat upon the clifftop

Reflecting upon her life

Thinking how far she had come

Always a mother, but no longer a wife

She didn't like judgment or labels,

She preferred to see people as they are

She allowed everyone to be themselves

Using her intuition as her guiding star

She believed there were no accidents in life

Everything happened for a reason

Everyone who crossed our path

Was in our life forever, or just a season

She knew what it was like to love

And be intensely loved in return

But sometimes it's not forever

And that can be a hard lesson to learn

Her journey was fraught with challenges

She endured sadness, loss, hurt and pain

But she pulled herself out of the rubble

Her strength, vulnerability and courage she gained

She no longer worried what others thought

She lives life to the beat of her own drum

So liberating, so freeing

Her passion rising daily like the sun

She didn't need anything or anyone

She was whole on her own

She chose who she wanted in her life

She didn't fear being alone

Her past was her greatest teacher

Her future she was ready to embrace

Always willing to grow and evolve

Happy to run her own race

She forgave herself and others

Only wanting love and gratitude within her heart

She opened up to the universe

Ready for another exciting start

She chose to be herself

Each and every day

She chose to love her life

In every single way

Everything felt exaggerated

Everything felt so fresh and new

The sun was warm upon her face

The grass glstening with the morning dew

She saw so much beauty everywhere

Like a child seeing things for the first time

The ocean in its vast glory

A majestic tree in its prime

She felt like she had magic within her

Like she was finally awake

She had been given an incredible gift

Now her blessings were there to take

In the stillness of her meditations

She felt such calm and peace

She knew exactly what she wanted

Anything no longer serving her, she released

She could feel the energy within her

Her gratitude so high

She knew she could help others

She finally understood her "why"

She was reminded of her inner beauty

She was a butterfly, with newly formed wings

She was ready to discover the world

And find her Goddess within
