Who told you that self-worth is a reward to be gained,
A career to be climbed, a family to tend to,
A house to maintain, good deeds to be done.
A colourful array of bright badges to pin on your chest?
N. D. Vector
It’s simply untrue: upside down, inside out.
Self-worth can’t be garnered in this outer world of endeavour.
It’s the most precious, innate seed of divinity,
Imprinted in the depths of your unique essence.
Life is your invitation to unravel the layers of illusion,
Of what you are not: a wife, husband, parent, sister, brother, teacher,
A gargantuan task of unlearning habits, shedding concepts,
In order to awaken to the luminous gift that you are.
Precious One, find this magnificent sacred treasure within.
Nurture it with attentive devotion.
Make life a practice of becoming,
A Presence reflective of your true potency.
Play your part in divine creation.
Value your worth,
Unlock your wisdom, your power, your love,
And shine your truth on the world.

The most difficult and stunning blow to my continuous onslaught of negativity was ‘Life is your invitation to unravel the layers of illusion’. I feel it takes a really brave person with a strong determination to embrace this viewpoint on a continuous basis to arrive at awakening ‘the luminous gift that you are’. Wow Chloe – your word-smithing reflects your own awakening to this illusive truth locked within. Thank you.

Thanks Benny, you’re so right, it does take courage and strong determination. But with a perfect guide and glimpses of the goal, the unravelling is the only Path. How long it takes, is up to us. Surrendering to the journey is an evolving process for me.
