FIGHT for your RIGHT!


 

GO HEAD

I double dog DARE you

LOVE Life

LOVE Your Self

More than

You think you have

A RIGHT to

FIGHT for YOUR RIGHT

To come ALIVE

To live your truest life

To discover your truest Self

To birth YOUR Dreams

Summon your inner Mama BEAR

FIGHT!

Fight with ALL of YOU

FOR YOU

For YOUR LIFE

Fiercely Protect

Who you truly are

Your Sacred longings

Your deepest desires

FREE of the herd

Going along to get along

Choking back truth

Doing what’s expected

Nothing more

Nothing less

Deadened

Cut off from the VITALITY

Numbed

Disconnected from the PASSION

A stranger to your Self

Estranged from your OWN LIFE

Asleep at the wheel

Falsely believing:

THIS is IT!

THERE IS NOTHING MORE!

Stop the foolishness

Settle

Dreaming is for featherheads

Nobody is truly happy

No one really LOVES LIFE

FIGHT!

FIGHT with ALL of YOU

For your RIGHT

To live the LIFE

That makes you come ALIVE

That makes you clutch your HEART

GRATITUDE pouring

Every PRECIOUS day THANKSGIVING

AWE springing

WONDER washing up on your shore

All day

Every day

Come what may

Slay those DRAGONS

Guarding the cave

Of YOUR

Mind, heart, body, soul

FREE your Self

FIGHT!

Dig deep

Go where you have never gone

To bring through YOU

To rescue YOU

Knowing you have the RIGHT

To live a LIFE you LOVE

Fiercely

Trusting you have the FIGHT

Within

To CLAIM

The gift of YOU

The treasures of YOUR life

The POWER

To move the mountains

The obstacles blocking

THE BLESSINGS

The abundance ever-flowing

And

Within YOU

Lies

An endless WELL

The COURAGE to take

The FIRST step

To do what ya gotta do

ACT!

Choose YOU

When you FIGHT

For your Self

YOU fight for us ALL

EVER-CONNECTED

FIGHTing for your RIGHT

YOU take us with YOU

Where we didn’t know we could GO

Limitlessness

SOUL guided

Soaring

Riding the WINDS

Ever-changing

Ever-shifting

YOU have the RIGHT

To fight!

To live an UPGRADED life

To LIVE the more

To CLAIM

The beauty

The magnificence

The magic

The miracle

YOU ARE

Believing with ALL of YOU

YOU ARE worth the FIGHT!

 
While on the phone with my nephew who just turned 16, we began to talk about all that is to come, all that is yet to be for him and his life.  I reminded him over and over and over again that he is worthy of a life he absolutely loves.  The energy was palpable as together, we began to paint pictures for his life, creating a vision for his life, this unfolding dream that will definitely present challenges and obstacles but it is essential that he understands that this is part of living so he must dig deep to fight for his right to live a life reflecting his truest Self, honoring his sacred longings, his heart’s desires.  He got more and more excited as he claimed the beauty he is, as we listed all his gifts all that makes him uniquely who he is.  In that moment, he was completely tuned in to his sense of Self, believing with all of him that he is worth the fight and to dig deep every single day, doing whatever he has to in order to remember this.

Oh my gosh!  The conversation was so rich as soul talk always takes us to a depth like nothing else can.  I understand he is 16 but he is also a soul that knows far more than his years so I go there never dismissing the importance of truth, of saying what comes forward in order to remind him of all that he is and all the possibilities for his life.

When I was 16, the Beastie Boys anthem:  (You gotta) Fight for Your Right (to party)! blazed on the radio and echoed in my heart.  I loved it!  There was nothing like this song or this band mirroring my need to express uniquely, go against the grain, rejecting the status quo and a conventional life.  The rebel in me needing to do things my way was not yet seasoned, was not in balance as it is today so the anthem was literal as I was fighting for my right to party down and that I did.  But today, I see that I never believed I had a right, I never believed I was worthy of all the goodness in life so I rebelled against my Self, self-destructing, killing my spirit instead of showing up for the party of life - unable to claim the power, the gifts, the magnificence, the beauty of my life.  Slaying the dragons in order to free my Self has been worth the fight!  I have come to know over the last few years that the only life worth living is one I love fiercely.  I no longer wait for permission from others to come alive in a way that nourishes and fulfills me.  I no longer buy into the bullshit that I don’t have the right to live a life I absolutely love, that reflects my truest Self living my dreams awake.

The invitation this day is to sit with your Self and have an honest conversation, soul talking, going within.  Meet your 16 year old Self – the part of you conditioned, locked into old beliefs.  Remind your Self of the beauty you are, the miracle you are and give your Self permission to live a life you absolutely love.  Paint new pictures for your life and create a vision that excites the hell out of you.  Don’t hold back!  Go there.  OPEN.  Go where you have never gone – I double dog dare you!  Fight for your RIGHT to live a life that makes you come alive, that frees the vitality, that awakens your passion so that every single day is Thanksgiving!  You are worth fighting for.  Slay the dragons and move the mountains, the obstacles within you that block the blessings that pour through your every breath.  You are a living, breathing miracle!  No less.  You are far more than you know in this moment.  Discover the limitlessness that you are – a soul on fire FIGHTING for your RIGHT to come alive!
