This is beautiful, Cibelle. So many of these lines hit straight in the chest, especially “repetition is not failure, it’s refinement.” I write a lot about healing and honesty too, and this piece felt like a quiet mirror. Thank you for sharing something that feels both gentle and grounding. 💛

I'm so proud of you setting up boundaries to the world, Cibelle! You are starting to see the world as it is and how you are connected to it. Your connection holds the key. You can make it any way you want to believe it is. I wish you could see who you truly are. The power you have! 💖🦋

I am working through 24

I wish to know 30.

I am also curious about the story/wisdom around 3, if you care to share!

I wrote 3 from a place of creating environments that hold me and my desires. spaces and people that accept them and me. for what I desire to have, how I desire to experience moments, and how I desire to carry myself. finding a place for my desire to land and be loved :) how does this feel?

Oh I get it! I’m creating a similar space for me next year. But I use the word support. I want to feel supported by my home, people and things that I do. I want my dream to feel supported and to have a place to grow.

I think I’m going to sit with the word desire. I love that! Thank you for sharing

ah! so similar! I love to view the words desire from a grounded human place! not materialism but desire of the heart and body. we are after all souls in a human body!

Danielle's avatar

Yes that’s so cool!!! I’m definitely going to work on having that perspective of desire. It hasn’t been in my vocabulary much

Incredible list. So many that I relate to, but these two really stuck out for me:

25. if i don’t cry for a while, i forget how holy it feels. (yes, so true)

29. what i consume affects what i believe. media is memory in disguise. (I completely agree that what I consume affects what I believe, but the way you worded the last part, that “media is memory in disguise.” That is just a brilliant!)
