Blog Thoughts: Unearthing You

Unearthing you...

When I came across this online, it stopped me in my mindless scrolling. Read it. Read it again. And again.

"There can be a whole world inside us that's been buried alive."

The raw truth of this statement came flooding to my eyes as tears fell. I remember the moment when I realized for the first time I was more than where I came from, what happened to me or how I once lived my life. 

It took too many painful moments, hours, days and years for me to unearth the treasures that indeed live and breathe within my soul underneath the rubble that I had to lift piece by piece.

Some days, the rubble was too heavy.
Some days the rubble was too broken.
And some days the rubble was surprisingly light when I would discover the joy amidst the pile.

What do you still need to unearth today?
Are you willing to walk into the pile and start lifting off the pieces, so you can find your joy?

Every day of our lives we are unearthing our true selves. I don't believe it ever ends. I think life is a constant excavation of who we are becoming and who we are meant to be amidst the rubble.

You began and will end a treasure. The life in between is up to you.
