Suki's Inspiring Journey

Our Power Is Inside Our Pain

While our Path to an authentically empowered life can have it’s challenges….
the rewards can be tremendous!

Sometimes it's important to share the hard things in life that have shaped us. For me, a lifetime of health challenges aided my personal sojourn through
the healing & creative arts... and I have come to respect pain and illness as powerful teachers. Culminating in Stage 4 non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in 2005,
I came face to face with my "Dark Teacher” who pointed the way to my Divided Self... the parts of me in resistance to my Wholeness. And it was Cancer
that taught me that it is our True, inexhaustible, authentic POWER…. that actually lives deep INSIDE our pain… struggling to be set free, to be "let out,”
to be fully Received.

Our authentic power is never far from us, no matter how far we feel we may be from it. Through this journey, I learned how to Receive my Self… ALL of
me… in Love... and to accept and respect All neglected parts of myself, which created an alchemy so deep inside that those discordant parts could no
longer sustain themselves. It is in the simple Acceptance of self, both light and shadow sides, that leads us to a new Respect and Honor of the Self… which
then leads us to Union with our True Self and with others.

Through the receptive nature of Acceptance, discord dissolves naturally and a higher integration/alchemy takes place within. Today, it is this Love &
Acceptance of what IS that strengthens my soul and continues to lead me toward an experience of Oneness with All Life, the Cosmos, and the revelation
of my own wholeness and holiness within.

Each of us is innocent and worthy of God's Love here and now! It is the simple recognition of our wholeness and holiness within that finally takes us
Home.
