Hi, everyone!
I wanted to apologize since I took a break from writing, but I want to thank all my followers who stuck around. The first thing I’m going to start off with is an explanation as to why I took a break. A large part of it is because of college and my job and another part is because I was feeling largely uninspired. I love to write. I think what I like to write about is changing.
I initially started this page as an outlet to connect with others and share a few inspirational stories regarding spirituality and law of attraction. For anyone who resonates with this, I think you’ll understand what I’m going through. If this does not resonate, you can keep reading if you would like, if not, I do not blame you for exiting the page. I wanted this to be a place where I could share my life journey with others who have gone through similar experiences and now I realize I have the energy, the drive, and creativity to create something new.
From the last time I posted until now, so many things in the world have changed. Due to coronavirus I was forced to move off campus and back home. I had to find another place to work and I did. I really do love my job. I’ve learned so much and I cannot wait to pursue my passion of geriatric pharmacy. Secondly, with the whole BLM movement, I have been so touched and so moved by the amount of people who have united to stand up to end years worth of oppression, inequality, and prejudice. As a future healthcare provider, I treat all patients regardless of ethnicity, sex, disability, or any other social construct that insinuates differences between myself and another person. I wholeheartedly believe that all my patients will be treated equally to the best of care as long as I am their healthcare provider and I will continue to fight for it. As a small plug, please consider signing the petition for George Floyd, which is also symbolic of all the African American lives that have been lost to police brutality or donating to the cause. I understand not everyone can donate, but even if it is within your power to reflect or educate anyone on why this is important, please do. These are all forms of activism!
While all these events are occurring now, a few months ago, I have taken time to connect with my soul family, and this also includes cutting out people who no longer serve me. I have gone through and am currently going through a transformation in my life on a spiritual level. I want to start out by saying spirituality looks different for everyone. For me, I was raised Catholic and I do believe in God and the Holy Trinity. I do believe in the 10 commandments, and I do believe in eternal life. What has changed for me is my idea of who God is, how religion was constructed, and what it means to know God. In my spiritual journey, I made a mental list of what resonates with me and what does not. I respect and admire and love all religions and spiritual identities. In no way am I saying one is better than the other. This is my idea of what my spirituality means to me.
As mentioned before I do believe that for me there is one God, but my idea of who He is has changed. Since I was a child, I have often felt like God was saving me for something special and constantly trying to communicate with me. Every time I wanted to go left, He would pull me right. Quite literally in some instances. He has saved me in miraculous ways and provided for me in ways no one would believe, but this has caused me to question a lot of things. Going to mass and reconciliation is still quite important for me because it gives me the chance to connect with God and reevaluate my relationship with Him, however, I only go to Catholic churches that preach love towards all people. The idea of criticizing people who are LGBTQ is not something I believe in, and I have found a few niches that are welcoming and opening towards all people and that is where I connect with Him the most.
I’ve also read through countless books speaking about Law of Attraction, consciousness, and oneness, which have helped me cultivate more love, kindness, compassion, gratitude, and forgiveness in my life. Not all teachings resonated with me, but the ones that do are practices that I hold true to today. Throughout this journey I have looked into synchronicity, angel numbers, and meditation and I feel like I see God everywhere now. This all took time though. I had to rest and recover for awhile and then really set aside time for myself in order to digest this.
I’ve also found the courage to start my own podcast, which if you are interested in listening to, I will link on my website and onto my next post. I know I keep saying that, haha. But I will! I’ll be talking about a lot of what I believe on that platform. Thank you so much for staying with me until the end, and I hope you guys are safe and taking care. Please reach out to anyone who needs help, continue donating to causes you resonate with, and to donation drives. Now is the perfect time to cultivate love towards each other, and I will see you guys soon! xoxo
Stephanie
