Last light near San Francisco’s Golden Gate

Posted on by RhapsodyBoheme

This picture was taken the night before I left for Germany.

It’s been seven days since I got here, and it’s been a hell of a week. Tonight it is barely nine PM but im in bed and the stresses have finally caught up with me. I’m sick and what started with an overall sore throat, has left me feeling kind of lousy today. I didn’t get a chance to rest today and my day was filled with things about Mom. I need to find better balance and although I don’t work right now, I have had no time to myself and it’s been hectic.

Tonight I hope to get rested so I can wake up refreshed for another day.

We are the co-creators of our life and the time is now. More than ever are we needed to support Mother Earth and each other. Together we discover and explore our unique gifts in times of strengths, in times we lean on each other, and in times when we learn from each other. This blog started as an outlet and what I ultimately called my “Warriors Journey.” It was a way to document the ups and downs of my life, sharing my hardships as well as my successes. It showcased the struggles, but more important the ways of how to overcome them. Although we are warriors each and every day, I realized that having to be a warrior, comes from a place of pain. I decided to rename this blog, and “Phoenix Rising” now stands for the story of overcoming such a painful place. My motivation for this blog hasn’t changed and I hope to share inspiration and hope, to create a sense of belonging, a space of being heard, and connecting with like minded beings who instill a sense of oneness. We are never alone, and we are unstoppable in the pursuit of what sets our soul on fire. Who I am in a nutshell... 
I am an energy healer and Reiki Master. I am surviving a chronic disease that I’ve sent into remission three times since my initial bout, 15 years ago. I continuously challenge the status quo and by doing so I change my stars. I am a believer that anything is possible. I am a hopeless romantic and I believe that true love exists on various levels. I am an optimist that will always see the glass as half full. I am a dreamer, believing in endless possibilities. Not even the sky is the limit. I have jumped off of the hamster wheel, and I am writing a new chapter. I am chasing my Nirvana to support my most authentic self. This is my story, I am that Phoenix and I am rising from the ashes. Namaste 🙏🏼💙🦋

  6. Love that photo–Restful.
    I know exactly where you are (well, not like on a map. I’m very bad with maps) and I hate you are there. I never want people to do what we are doing. I’m not going to tell you what you know about rest and taking care of yourself. It is sometimes the last thing you can do. Sending my heart, compassion, and prayers to you. love always and always.

    1. That alone and having someone wonderful like yourself, knowing and understanding where I am, gives me the wings and strengths to go on. I feel at times as if I’m in shock and I know it’s my body trying to protect the soul within me from feeling too much of what I might not be able to handle. I’m strong when I need to be and I know now how Mom must have felt many years ago. She kept all,the crap away from me, being strong when she needed to be and crying (I’m sure, although I never heard or seen it) behind closed doors. The roles have reversed and it is me now who doesn’t show the pain in front of her.
