Beneath Your Wants

What you think you want and what you really need may be two different things. Stop putting conditions on what shows up in your life…what’s good or bad. This kind of behavior keeps us in fear….fear of losing the good we have or fear of being stuck in the bad forever.

Beneath all of our wants…
things to be different
people to change
for life not to be so hard
to be loved, accepted and respected by others
a successful career
everybody to get along
…is our soul wanting us to remember who we really are.

Beneath all of our wants is the call from our soul to love our self unconditionally. Beneath our wants is the call to accept that we are enough, in each moment…enough. This is our true need. To breathe a sigh of relief and know…hey, I’m okay. Isn’t that what you need…to feel okay with yourself? I think that’s what the soul wants you to know.

In the wise words of Keith Richards and Mick Jagger…You can’t always get what you want. But if you try sometime, you just might find, you get what you need.

And beyond okay is this soul call from Nina Simone.

When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, joy.

Rumi

Feeling good. Indeed.
