The Fire of Our Lives Needs Some Tending

As women we are told, both directly and indirectly, that stirring up our passions and feeding our desires is wrong. We are the caretakers and the nurturers. We are the compassionate guardians and the devoted mothers.

We are all those things, but we are also the lover and the fighter. We are also the driven professional and the passionate creative. We are the open heart, the courageous hero and the powerful, soulful, divine light.

When we feed our fire by discovering and honoring our desires, there is a light within all of us that will shine brightly. Our embers will burn and we will be able to live with heart and with wholeness - open and authentic, vulnerable and strong.
