Revelation

Today I am excited! I’m remembering how I used to feel when I began making jewelry ages ago. The possibilities! The potential! The mystery and adventure! Anything can happen. I can create a world. I can participate. I have something to say, and as I say it, I create it. 

This is what I came to do. I came to create my world. I came to give birth to myself. My potential unfolds as I express who I am. Through writing, drawing, forging. It feels good to not avoid me. I am excited to be back on a great adventure with myself.

This is what it means to be a creator: to take what I was given, the good and bad and mold it into a story, into meaning into beauty. Beauty now being all of it, the whole of me. The depth lies in all of it, and how I’ve longed for it! I am the guide I always sought. The hidden wise crone.

On the other side of fear lies adventure. What a revelation for someone who was terrified of taking a step in any direction: on the other side of everything is something else. The next step appears after the one I take now.
