What if sharing your humanity and authentic self wasn't only sharing the parts of you that suffer, but the parts of you that shine?

What if vulnerability wasn't only sharing your hidden pain, but also your hidden joy, your hidden gifts, your hidden tenderness, your hidden rapture with God, nature, your life.

For me, the deepest edge is not to cry in front of others, not to share the frayed edges and bits that have felt too much too little not enough. Not even to ask for help, or to cry in public. Along my journey, those have become common for me.

For me the vulnerable more edgy place is to share the possibilities. To share the joy, the transformation, the courage, the confidence, the fun, the love, the connection, and the human that lives inside of in all of it.

To share the abundance, the creations, the intimacy, the peace.

To me, that is so vulnerable.

And I choose to come on here, over and over again this year, sharing both, and letting my edges expand because I choose to be the possibility in the universe. I choose to stay with what is possible, expand it, shine light on it - because that is how it grows for us, by bringing it to the light, by being unafraid to shine. Experience wonder and beauty. Revel and marvel in the wonder of it all. It is also so wonderful.

It's Rosh Chodesh Kislev.

Shine this month. Shine from the inside out. Shine with what is authentic for you. With what matches your natural energy flow. Let your smile take up more space, let your laugh and your cry move through your whole body. Be a flame that only ever improves the world when it shines, and when someone comes close, light their candle. You will never lose, only multiply, to infinity.
