I'm a Delightful Half Half Situation

If you are my people, you understand this reference.

As I look up to the sky the moon appears precisely half full, or is it half empty? This age old question, a prompt to re-frame, to be positive and I got to thinking-- is it ok to be half empty? Is it negative or pessimistic or is it just honest?

A reminder that all feelings are valid as long as they don't become our identity. Life is not always good or bad, often the two polarities don't even exist separately, rather in tandem-- duality. At most times I am simultaneously grateful beyond measure and grief stricken, annoyed and also joyous.

Being comfortable existing in the overlap means we never deny the existence of any one experience. They are all tangled up, these opposing states are what comprise our humanity. We opted in for this 3D experience knowing it would challenge us, so then why do we constantly feel pressured to bypass and "stay positive"?

I want all of the abundance, every single drop. I want my highest heaven timeline ASAP. What I know for sure is that I must develop the capacity to hold the highest timeline, and that capacity is forged through being present for what is difficult, painful.

It is ok to admit that this is hard, no need to gaslight ourselves. All of it is temporary, how hopeful, how heartbreaking.
