It is said that tenderness lives in all beings. Just as butter already exists within milk and oil already lives inside the sesame seed, there is a soft, sacred center living inside you and me.

In our most difficult seasons, it is this inner heart that heals. When inspiration feels hidden, when we feel ready to give up, this is often the moment when healing is found not by escaping the pain, but by allowing ourselves to feel the tenderness within it.

In loneliness…In fear….In moments of feeling misunderstood, rejected, or unseen there is a deeper heartbeat quietly pulsing beneath it all. A gentle, compassionate core that knows how to hold sadness without being destroyed by it.

Like a jewel buried in the earth for a million years, this inner heart is never damaged by what we’ve been through. It is not discolored by our pain, our mistakes, our selfish moments, our fear, or our resistance. At any moment, we can bring it into the light and it will shine as brilliantly as if nothing had ever happened.

No matter how far we think we’ve strayed, this genuine, loving center cannot be lost. It has always been here. Untouched….Unbroken… Fully home within you.

🔥Today’s reminder: You don’t need to become something new you only need to remember what’s already alive inside you.🙏🏽
