This morning in my devotion/meditation time, I reflected on conversations that I’ve been having with myself and with some of my warrior women friends over the past few weeks. Our tribe has struggled with:
- A mother who died, and left petals that line a path for us to follow
- Friends and sisters ravaged by cancer who make us question our own humanity, and scared to touch our breasts for what we might find
- Spouses, lovers, and soul mates who died physically and emotionally
- Financial hardship that has cut all the meat off the bones
- Careers that no longer satisfy, but with no clear path to change course
If you can identify with any of these, then welcome to the promises of maybe.
Maybe . . .
Maybe its not the right time to move
Maybe you have more to learn where you are
Maybe there is more to be done where you are
Maybe . . .
Maybe it’s time to make yourself a priority
Maybe it’s time to work on your health, visit the doctor, lose those extra pounds, exercise more, and get more sleep
Maybe it’s time to stop making excuses and just do it
Maybe . . .
Maybe it’s time to honor the loss of your loved ones by being your best self
Maybe it’s time to soak up the wisdom of a female elder before the doors to her library close
Maybe it’s time to mentor a young warrior and pour into her your knowledge and wisdom, while being open to learning from her world
Maybe . . .
Maybe it’s time to learn a new song
Maybe it’s time to learn a new dance
Maybe it’s time to write that new chapter of your life in ink
Maybe . . .
Maybe you need this time to breathe in fresh air
Maybe you need this time to exhale
Maybe you need this time to just be . . .
