A core piece of my spiritual belief system is, if I want something in my life, I need to be able to visualize it and feel it. I need to be able to get excited or enamored or some other strong emotion. I gotta feel the juice, ya know?! I need some kind of touchstone to help me visualize what it is I’m creating.
Many of you know I struggle with this frustration that our societies don’t appreciate mothering. In fact most feminine qualities, attributes, and values are not seen, much less honored. I truly believe this is why many of us mamas get to the end of the day feeling like we aren’t really sure what it is we have accomplished all day long, and we feel like it wasn’t enough. As though bringing spiritual beings into physical form and then guiding them through all the challenges of learning to live in a body and the rules of social interaction, many of which are absolutely bizarre, is not valuable, not enough. Well, I want to change that. I feel pretty insanely strong about it, in fact, but I’m not exactly sure how to do that. I have a few ideas, like my Jelsa book, but I need a little more direction, and I need to be able to feel the juice!
That’s where y’all come in. I want you to tell me a story. It can be about you or someone you know or someone you heard about. It doesn’t even have to be a true story. Just tell me a story about a mama being treasured and honored. What does that look like? Tell me about her and what she is/was like. Then also tell me about the treasuring. Tell me who really honored her for being a mother. Tell me about that person. Tell me how they showed that mama how valuable her contribution to this world really is. Tell me how they appreciated her. Tell me how she received that. How did she act knowing her gifts were valued? Tell me how they respected her values and followed her lead. Tell me how they made sure she knew that she was accomplishing something beautiful on a day to day basis. Then tell me about her children. Tell me how they are growing and blooming. What are the children of a woman who is honored and treasured?!

Like Einstein said, you can’t see the solution when you’re looking at the problem. I need you to help me see and feel the outcome. Then I can work backwards from there. Thanks, y’all. I really appreciate and love this community so much.
