For the past several weeks, we have been talking about finding peace in childlessness… Though you may not be at the point of PEACE just yet, I pray that you have started down the path of acceptance.
Finding Peace…
Perhaps you are still at the beginning and trying to accept your physical person…
Or maybe you are in the midst of emotional acceptance, whether that be battling through grief or allowing yourself to once again feel joy…
Perhaps you are trying to accept this journey with all its ups and downs…
Or maybe, you have fought and struggled and are at the courageous point of trying to embrace the what is…
Wherever you are, know that I am here, cheering you on!
Let me say that again, fabulous one. I am here, cheering you on!
You are NOT alone!
With Christmas only two days away, I think it is super important for us to remember that we are not alone. Though we may be the only childless person at our family gathering, there are literally hundreds, thousands of other childless trying to find joy and peace, trying to redefine… Remember that, if and when, the isolation strikes…
And if you find yourself struggling, needing a moment to gather some strength… Take a look back at the blogs from this series…
- Finding Peace in Childlessness: Series Introduction
- Physical Acceptance – Step 1
- Emotional Acceptance – Step 2
- Acceptance of Your Entire Journey – Step 3
- The Courage to Embrace What Is… – Step 4
Keep Trying to Find Peace…
And once Christmas has passed, and you are looking towards another year… Well, keep trying to find that peace…
For me personally… During 2020, I will continue to find PEACE in my journey (both CNBC and my grief journey over the loss of my best friend), accepting physical limitations, accepting the various complex emotions that show I am an authentic and loving human being, accepting the entire journey (the good, the bad, and the ugly)… And doing all of this while courageously embracing the what is…
Together, we can do this, fabulous ones! Because we are brave and kind and beautiful and strong. Yes, we are fierce!
