today i stand in the light. (and a shop special in honor of election day)

stand in the light.
this has become my soul mantra of late.
i uncover and shift and look inward and move the truth, move myself, into the light.
i walk toward the lightness and let go of (some of) the patterns that seemed to serve me.
i see those patterns for what they are.
i see through them.
i see how those patterns held me close in the darkness.
i see them.
i walk away.
i insist that they release me.
i (try to) no longer ignore or push away or pretend.
i take off the blinders.
i want to find me.
i want to see me.
i cannot see me in the darkness.
i walk toward the light.
i bring the truth that sits inside me.
i bring the truth that is my truth that is nestled inside the wisdom i have had all along.
i stand in the light.
i feel the light, the warm yellow healing light, surround me.
i see me.
i see this life that is me.
i see me.
i stand in the light.
i am free.

stand in the light

i have added the stand in the light soul mantra necklace to the shop. it is available in brass and sterling silver. the i hope soul mantra necklace is also now available in sterling silver.

additionally, i have added the i am abloom soul mantra necklace. it is pictured below with the (new) crystal ball necklace from jen's shop. (i love the way the crystal ball necklace looks with the soul mantra pendants. makes me so happy. this is my everyday look now.)

You know, I have watched you walk into this light for awhile now and have seen the transformation that it has caused within you. More peace, more contentment and gained perspective. It is a beautiful example of you living your mantra's.

And...here is to today being history making in the best possible way!

Beautiful pieces... the necklace and the poetry.

Your poem is simply awesome and your jewelry is fantastic!

Your words are always moving...simple, strong and bold.

I'm Canadian so I didn't vote today (obviously!) though I did vote in my own election here in October. It's important that we do so. To keep our voices strong.

Let's all stand together in the light of an election that contrasted hope with fear and insight with looking backwards. Let's carry the light with us and help build a better world.

The necklace is wonderful, Liz!

What a fabulous post! Indeed, my shining the light on my authentic self - and the subsequent *daily* awakening that comes along with that is in FULL FORCE here in Ohio. Amazing stuff!

Love the necklace and your words. Very timely and relevant. We are blessed by your energy and presence, dear Liz :-)
