I am here living what was once a dream...

to be a full-time nomad, traveling the US discovering beauty, communing with nature, and expanding my consciousness.
And yet, internally condemning myself to restlessness, for the demands that I alone place upon myself to be of greater service to the world.
My eyes kept shifting back to the desert sunrise as I settled my mind to allow insights to come.

What beliefs limit me?
...That it needs to be hard/is going to be hard to get started sharing (and serving); and that I should only share about my journey through forgiveness towards a greater embodiment of unconditional love.
The truth is that I don't need to force anything. I just need to clear what arises that needs clearing, and share what I am inspired to share.
It's time to release all guilt, shame, judgment and fear that I may not be enough in any way. Those feelings and negative thought patterns no longer serve my highest good and service.
It's time to practice unconditional self-acceptance.
That's how I can love myself more.
And how can I love others unconditionally if I do not know how to love myself unconditionally?
I was guided to write a letter to myself from an unconditionally loving version of myself:

Dearest April,
You are forgiven for being human and having to learn lessons. There is no judgment for you here, nor any condemnation or criticism...not for you, nor any human. You are ready to release the density of all of the shame and guilt you have carried. Let it go now. Live and let live. Live and be free. Light and love shines out of your eyes. See that same light all around you. You are loved and supported unconditionally.
Then I was told, "Stop believing in your old stories...you are allowed to change them!"

So what's a new story that I choose to believe? You can find that post here: Telling Myself A New Story About Life
And if you made it this far, I'd love to hear from you in the comments! 🙂
