If we’re truly living, we will have a thousand little deaths and rebirths. Ego deaths, relationships that need to die out so you can move forward, deaths of parts of ourselves that are no longer serving us. And also a thousand rebirths: rebirths of purpose, of self, of passion, love, desire.
If you’re not attuned to these cycles, it may be because you’re numb. And there is zero shame in that. Being numb is a really understandable coping mechanism because change can be scary. And fear is a thing.
However, when we can embody the deaths, when we can make room for the devotion to pain, the most beautiful spring blossoms and rebirths are possible.
