The Weight Of Resistance

The Weight Of Resistance

Heavy it feels
Pressure it builds
Smothering it becomes

Fumes of anger and frustration rise
Discomfort takes on a whole new personality
Illness, disease, temporary pain begins to profoundly speak!

Slow the thoughts, hear the messages from within
Feel the heart
Only this once will you begin again

Returning with more weight
Tightening pressure
Suffocation taking a breath…

Confusion, sadness and despair circle
Discontent becomes the norm
No longer aware of subtle messages, rather screams for help!

Slow the thoughts, hear the messages from within
Feel the heart
Only this once will you begin again

The eye lids have begun to open
Seeing the world with new lenses
The pain subsides… Reminded, I am

This earth… This body… This experience
Tis FOR me
Pressure, weight and discomfort floating free

My thoughts have slowed… I hear the love
My heart has spoken
For this I kneel with reverence and thank the weight of resistance, once again!

    Annie, I think this is important to talk about right now, but it is difficult when we do not want to get into the “story” of life, rather what we are feeling. If only we listened to our feelings more than our thoughts, our world would be so different. 🙂 So much love to you!

    So spot on. Especially, around the holidays and end of year.

    Much love to you and yours!

      Jill, thank you tons of love in return!
      I agree that this time of year is potent with our resistance and pressure building! I also think this “year” in particular we seem to have built a pressure cooker within the collective. 🙂
