Sunset walk with Lillian tonight. Incredibly beautiful. xoxo
Liberation
She was tired.
Tired of trying to figure it out.
Tired of trying to make things work.
Tired of manipulating circumstances
to make things work.
Tired of trying to control situations to make things work.
Tired of living in confusion.
Tired of the suffering
created by way of her thoughts.
Tired of the chains that
bound her to the suffering.
Tired of dragging those
invisible chains through life.
Tired of not loving herself.
Tired of not being loved.
Tired of the responsibility of it all.
Tired of questioning her every decision.
Tired of hiding the Truth from herself.
Tired of running from her own self.
Tired of the darkness within.
Tired of the pull of the ego.
What she craved.
What she desperately needed.
Was … FREEDOM.
In desperation she dropped to her knees.
Crying out to the all knowing,
Take this tired body,
Take this tired mind,
Take this confusion,
Take this suffering,
She let it all go.
She released it to the divine.
She asked for liberation
from her self-induced suffering.
Liberate this soul.
Liberate this heart.
Allow this heart to open.
Allow this heart to
receive and know unconditional love.
Allow this mind to know Clarity.
Liberation to the graceful
place of Knowing Freedom.
Liberation to the Place
of letting go.
Letting Go
And saying Yes
to Life. -©2017 Camilla Downs, Lessons from Nature

Thank you Great Spirit
for this beautiful Mother Earth.
Thank you for enlightening and awakening lessons disguised as discomfort and failure.
Thank you for the timing and opportunity to learn the depths of true love …. unconditional love.
Unconditional love for self so that I may unconditionally love my children.
That these children who are our greatest teachers and awakeners of our true selves know unconditional love and their worth.
That I may love all my brothers and sisters of this Earth as you love them.
And so it is.

“Continue”
Create what is in your heart.
Share it with others.
You are coming home.
Yes, you are.
You may take detours,
Yet, you are on your way.
Listen to the voice of nature,
the voice of the divine.
I will not lead you astray.
You successfully live
as a human on this beautiful
Mother Earth when you
share and create from the heart.
That is love. It is good.
My voice arises
from the heart.
All that I am is Good.
All that I am is Love.
You are Good.
You are Love.
You are. I am.
Quiet the voice
of the lower self.
The more you practice
the easier it will become.
The magical day will dawn
when the lower self falls
victim to the
Divine love
which is you.
Place focus in the heart.
Go forth from this divine space.
Release the voice of the ego.
Continue dear one.
Continue,
And know that
You are never judged
And always loved.
I love you.
