Happy Yule

It has been a rather rough year for me on so many levels. Through choices and changes I have made, I have revealed my vulnerability and placed myself in a situation I had promised myself never to repeat; that was 9 years ago I made that promise.

It has taken me the most of this year to realize certain things; that I am a certain way and I know what I need to avoid or what sort of person I need to remove myself from in order to thrive the way I am meant to be. So I have made a decision this Yule to let go of everything and everyone that encumbers and let myself live.

At the back of my mind I guess I have always known that not everything is for everyone. It is OK to have dreams and desires and to want to share them with someone, but it is VERY IMPORTANT that whoever you choose to share that walk with wants to be on that path for themselves and not because of you. It is therefore OK to let people go. It is stressful trying to make someone else see your dreams or want your desires when they have absolutely no interest in it. It creates room for disappointment and resentment (not worth the trouble, at all!!)

I realize that I can still dream, still have a desire to walk a certain path and still have a companion to hold my hand and walk with me. Most importantly I have realized that the companion to walk those paths with isn’t necessarily WHO I had hope to walk with. One can be open to the right companion to manifest, or one can stifle one’s dreams by trying to force the wrong companion to see/want the path. I chose the former.

Happiness and fulfilment in life is never about forcing dreams and ideas on anyone. Companionship comes in many forms and friendship is found in the most unexpected places and I am releasing myself and everyone I have futilely attempted to dream with.


It’s time to lay the foundation for positivity and growth and I am laying mine now with the first day of Yule. It’s going to be a week of meditation and silence for me until clarity is achieved and direction received. And while I am at it, I would want to wish you all a Very Happy Yule.
