This past season of my life has been about learning how to cultivate ease and softness in the moments where my first instinct is to brace against the pains of living.
Being a mama requires so much sacrifice and dedication and patience and so does being in partnership, this was a beautiful read and I can relate to many of the things you’ve experienced
Yes yes yes, I’ve been sitting with the idea of sacrifice + compromise when it comes to family life for many years now. It’s such a delicate balance between giving your all, but not giving your whole self. I’m in the process yet again of redefining who I am in the world, and WOW what a empowering feeling it is to do so! Sending you so much love mama! <3
this was so beautifully written my angel. i felt it when you said that you have now become a woman more expansive than the girl who breathed life into this lifestyle/marriage. usually contrast comes up to be transcended when there’s a greater life ahead. this is a sign that your marriage with your husband is meant to expand in a way that didn’t even think would be possible. lots of intimacy and peace and passion. you are doing so well 🤍
Thank you my love! It is such powerful and deep work to nurture a relationship with the intention for it to be lifelong. It’s been especially interesting on this path, as I did not have many (or any) examples of what it is like to navigate the death + rebirth cycle within a partnership!
so beautiful Sydney. thank you for sharing your truth. I see you fully and I’m right there with you!!! It’s not easy but pressure does indeed make diamonds 💎 we are being crafted for greatness, it’s beyond us… It’s funny because someone gifted me this exact small book a month ago! Ty for confirming it’s also exactly what I need 💞
Thank you my love 🥹❤️ So much gratitude to you for seeing me, and taking in the fullness of my expression here 💌 And wow the synchronicities!! I’d love to hear your reflections on the book once you dive into it, it’s truly such a mystical piece of writing ✨ Excited to hear what unfolds for you in the process! Sending so much love to you and the fam 🌹🥰
Sydney I needed this 🥺 your situation is very similar to mine, I got married at 22 and im not at all that same girl :( it’s so hard sometimes. Some days I wonder if Im just meant to be alone. all I can do is pray about it. You articulated the longing for solitude perfectly.
Reading this peice resonates so profoundly with me and my life as a new mother as I step into the role of a wife. Your words warped my mind to another space in time and encouraged me to allow room for a fuller but softer perspective. Thank you for sharing
