Hola dear goddess!
It's been aaaaaages since I last wrote to you. To be absolutely honest, I've been enjoying a year of healing following a death threat last December. It's been a harrowing experience, but in looking for the positives, an amazing life lesson. I've learned to prioritise what's truly important, to be gentle with myself, to process and deal with the trauma... I think it has also, to a large degree, prepared me to be strong in the face of this crazy roller-coaster
ride of 2016.
Anyway... I have written a little pep talk over at
AnitaRevel.com to explore some of the feelings and shock surrounding recent events in the USA. I invite you to read it, but if you're too busy, here's the out-take...
As Martin Luther King Jr said:
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
So, I choose to stay calm.
I choose healing, for myself and my community.
I choose to shine a light so that the darkness is diminished.
And ultimately, I choose to respond with love.
In love, we trust.
