I am with peace, I am with happiness, I am with love, I am with hope, I am with inspiration, I am with determination, I am with good health, I am with my choices, I am with my paths, I am with our world, I am with our humanity, I am with spirit, I am with strength, I am with courage, I am with truth, I am with myself & another, I am with learning, I am with thriving, I am with water in all its ways, I am with earth & all its creatures, I am with flames like wings inside of me, I am with senses, I am with flow, I am with awareness, I am with energy, energizing, I am with serenity, calming, I am with harmony, rippling, I am with identity, evolving, I am, we are, you are, they are. Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror Nama-staying in my focus, In my service, in my grace, In my duty, in my collecting, In my steps, with this of my all, Now, now, now, steadily my foundation And all that I am building to come.

 Grown up to give more than receive,
Learned over half way here. This needs to be balanced, mutual, Reciprocated externally and internally, Both are imperative to our whole Well-being, but to give out, We must give within. Giving must be inner-directed, Centered and applied to ourselves First, every time, before dispersing. Unlearning patterns, Of dysfunction, Through growing up, We carve a new way of being, A new way of loving, A new way of thinking, A new way of living, A new life with all our senses, And senses of being towards ourselves, Towards all. Through learning, We become our own allies, Unifying as we come together, Even if our paths only merge for a bit, Living separate lives, Going down different roads. It's not like we really ever disconnect, We just keep going, growing, becoming, More and more intune, attuned, Having a common center. Coming together and then leaving, Remembering, forgetting, Giving, receiving, in sublime ways and waves. So it is, this becomes and is Our life, growing through moments, Days, weeks, months, years, Recalling what is needed For our balance, To reclaim our hearts, Our souls, our bodies, our minds, Our peace, our light, our love, Our service, our boundaries, Our abundance. Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror So we give, so we receive, We receive to give, We give to receive, Ever changing, Ever expanding, Always growing us, mirrored. The recollection inside, All of the Out of bounds, I have done, Was done, Am still overcoming. These unmentionables, Pivot points, I didn’t and don't, see coming; Alludes me, Intrigues me, Guilefully, whirl me, Beguiles as in enchants, me. The darkest secrets, The shadiest scars, The vigorous wounds, The disfigured memories, I behold, Within me, Within the most intimate Of flashbacks, Such disturbances of the checks and balances, Within me. Knowing, Discerning, Which is real, Feeling that its own pain morphs A life of its own that split my reality. How they used to surface, How they still reveal themselves in new light, Makes/made me feel bent into the surreal, Of what I, yet to overcome, Because within this blight, chaos, I out of instinct rely on the panic to override, so my “Know How” fully trickles out and manifests… These unmentionables of mystery, Stemmed from much earlier suppression, Survival mode numbing, blackouts, Tempting old, matter of fact habits, To become once again my default. In these moments, hours, days, As I feel dragged from the stability I thought I had, (which is my soul extracting me from my own comfort zone). I feel that every smear, slice, stab, seering scream, Rouses me, Heightens me, Revives me, Entices me to find a new way to resolve, through facing. Encouraging a healing to allow this coming undone, Be my own becoming, be my own soul’s signals, Initiation to become clear, disburdened… As to alleviate entire entities of old stories, Baring ghosts of past, pasts still within, Holding me alike, to a hostage situation, Procrastinating full acknowledgement, For a full release, to detach, to let go of, Such binds/bonds, as to wholeheartedly liberate myself Into the now, being had, to have... Investigating old me, to who I am now, Realizing how all these things are integrated, To still yet again teach me its lessons, The possibilities of blessings. In retrospect, All the light, I now am, being diffused… All that could be, let loose towards a finding, An encounter, a choice, a development, Momentum, progress, unsnarling all the Words and actions of before that has Seeped over, To come upon whole truths, whole experiences, To be recognized, permitted. Entrusting, myself with who I am to become, Because of every revisit, All unveils, where I am to go, Who am I to become, All in choice, whether be in hindsight, Always forthright, All rehabilitating, to enliven, awaken, mend. To resurrect backbone, fill with more light, Appeasing my soul’s agreements, And furthermore, live life to the fullest, While I teach, train, study, learn of myself, For myself, in service to my ode, my life, All of me, I invest! To and for, all of the worlds inside out, Upside down, I invest.. Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror Gratefully invested in, all the treasures I contain, You behold, earth & memories, carry. We are conductors and illuminators, Peacemakers, creators, game-changers, Abundant with boundless resources, Inside out and of course outside in, Lean, get bent, arise, climb, burst, Celebrate, Invest, we’re meritoriously, Worth IT! (even upon recollection, all that Lives there, all that is there, here, Proves nothing more and nothing less of, Choice.)  Uncrossing of my own heart, I release all my self/not self betrayals. Every pinky promise unkept, I release all those guilt's. Uncrossed, fingers of ‘I swears,’ I release all disguised secrets, suppressed. Every shush, hushed, silence I took orders to behold, I release all those inner-depths screams, squabbles, as to Let my truths take full reign. For every shuddered lie, white lies, selective reveals, I release all my resentments with loving forgiveness… I am love, I am now. I am love, I am now. I am light, I am this now. I am light, I am this now. I am an ever-changing space, though I am whole. I am an ever-changing space, though I am whole. I am love, I am light, I am ever-changing, I am now, I am whole. I create, I transform, I choose, I pave, I bridge, I soar, I travel, I am freed, infinitely over and over again. I am restored, infinitely over and over again. Always, for I am now, love, loved, always! I unhook from every mistake, Keeping attached to the lessons/blessings. I release myself from the dooms that lay dormant, Holding onto such burdens, no longer here, No longer relevant. Being now, growing more and more here now, I am love, light, hope, strength, resilient, Unburdened now, I am... Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror   Tracing our minds back to our memories,
Tracing our hearts back to our bodies storage, Through our wounds, discovering what this Amazing retracing can stir up… May we honestly acknowledge what reflections Can offer, so much nutritional sustenance for upon First, second, third gaze, we tend to ourselves As the gardens we are… Reevaluating, what good needs to stay, what goods need to go, plus what needs to be taken Forward. Tracing our hearts back to mind, Tracing our bodies back to soul, We can discern the debris/blockages, Serve us, in proactive/preventive measures, Lessons to aid us to better choose, Here. Tracing is much like a loving caress, Grazing and identifying what gives, Gives light, bears shadows, strikes cords/pain, Becomes, to be faced, loved, welcomed, embraced, As to cultivate all that can exist will co-exist, Within us, within our subconscious, And our conscious consciousness, As to liberate us, as for us to navigate better, As to allow us to genuinely let us live, As to steadily allow us to consistently reclaim, Who we really are, at source, at heart, Beyond what our mind’s body sometimes remember, Our divine Identity... Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror  Lost wandering,
Though we feel anything but brave. Somehow we get through, Somehow we are able to navigate, Gravitates, to us something beautiful to come… Lost, as defined by all I contain within me, Within what I have gained thus far, I’ve learned that is the process of evolution, Of leaving everything we’ve ever known, Behind us, as we cross into the unknown. Letting myself be lost, Means to me, that I am honoring Where all possibilities lay. Letting uncertainty to be encompassed by my ‘Know how’ of faith, light, love and hope.. To permit new, to become undone, Unwound, unfinished, unfurl, As to allow the capacity to be replenished, So I allow, I grant myself open To flow anew.... Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror Lost solidifies me….  To rise, We have to let go. To grow, We have to widen our well being fully. To forgive, We have to love ourselves within. To love, We embark with, carry, give, share, build’s. To accept, We have to understand, come into learning, Come into knowing, awaken, become aware of. To allow all to be the blessings we need To carry forth, pave through, come full circle, So we can gather, take with us, Be altogether, Flourish and Thrive, We must, Progress… Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror  So we are here,
On the moment, in this moment, For what this is, To be, may we, Embrace for all that ‘This,’ really is, Now, our utterly beautiful, softening not hardening, But all our truths becoming… Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror Battles I have won, Conflicts I have made through, Shadows I have faced, Prepares me, helps me, Teaches me, Restores me, For I am consistently, Constantly, being replenished, To overcome all that may head my way, I am resourcefully, Always equipped. Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror   Memo to Self,
Respected, whole of me, I am inexplicably yours… Within us, of heart, soul, mind, body, Everything that connects, Lays within access, The odyssey of Life’s adventure, All buried, all to be unlocked, Within us… Remember, And when you forget, I am always with you, Together forever… Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror Dear Self, Illuminating always as we are... Our Treasury within, Of experiences, of thoughts, Of heart, of soul, of body, of mind, Sheathed by skin, Made from light, The infinity of divine, We are always becoming, We are always emerging, We are always retrieving, We are always strengthening, Deepening ourselves, Within, our incredible exposures Of expansions, of ascension, as we grow, As we live, as we are truly, authentically here, Such great wealth's we have, we hold, We offer, we receive, we are… For one another within, I am so grateful to embark on these Adventures together… Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror  Into this now, I allow myself to heal. Into this now, I honor what needs to be let go of. Into this now, I accept what is here for me to invest Within, yet again, over and over again, investing. Into this now, I allow all that is here, to be my Fuel, My food, my water, my sun, my wind, my earth, My rocket, my focus… Into this now, I choose to be here, I choose to know I got this, Into this right here, right now, Giving my all, I am, and so it is… Melissa Palmer © Evolving Mirror  |
