Question.
Have you ever been so far away from everyone and everything you've ever known, all on your own... in a space... in a time where no one knows you and you can just reinvent yourself if you choose to? And honestly, somehow rather than choosing to reinvent yourself, you instead begin shedding these externally imposed layers and slowly but surely, get to know who you REALLY are... and realize you can just Be that... with nothing and no one to stop you... All the distractions and the preconceived notions... of his and her and that opinion on YOUR life... are just gone. Dead. And you... get to...
LIVE.
You.. get to CHOOSE...
...to live...
...to walk and even glide gracefully around free as a bird... learning to fly for the first time... never having known such freedom...
So now... this moment, is an unshakeable certainty... that you really are, beautiful... wonderful... creatively crafted and therefore capable and strong and... Free.
That... is what the Ocean has been to me... the physical manifestation of the purest and most authentic dwelling place conceivable... an indwelling Peace…
Heaven.
Such a simple journey... wandering the western states, just heading north on Highway One... and yet heading everywhere I never knew I needed to venture in Life... Forward.
Welcome Friends! I'm BriJoRae', a wife, a woman, an artist, embracing slow living and learning what it is to just Be... deeply happy, holistically healthy, and sustainably fulfilled. After spending most of my life looking down on myself for mistakes I made as a young girl, feeling ashamed rather than beautiful, I took a journey... I believed, at first, that I was all alone but soon discovered the manifest presence of True Beauty all around me... God, His extraordinary nature (both physical and spiritual), and the beautiful man He gifted me to dwell in Eden with... and... You, whomever you may be... all of us - the beautiful vessels meandering in this present space of existence... seeking to be filled, longing to just... Be.
Maybe like you, it took some time for me to open up enough to receive the love God had for me... but after dedicating myself and my time to His process of immense mental, physical and spiritual healing - to becoming wholly who I truly am - God revealed in my heart, a desire to share with others what He had given me. Freedom... ...a key to unlocking the door to His heaven for others. But let me clarify... this key is already in YOUR hand... and in YOUR heart, just as it was in mine.
All I had to do was learn to sit in His presence and glean His wondrous glory. For so long, I believed I was what needed to be still... but as He caught me up in His wonder, He released my senses to a stillness I'd not known had always existed all around me- at all times, even in the midst of the storms of life. His words and beautiful thoughts... He was always there, within...
He taught me to meditate in nature, coming out of the "nature" I'd once believed was my own... to open up to His way of healing people all over the world. In so doing, I was gifted the most important gift I've ever received... the intimacy of His Spirit and the Depths of His love... I stepped into a world I'd never truly known I could live in on this side of "heaven"- in this particular existence... but He said it... "The Kingdom of heaven IS AT HAND."
And so here I am... open-hearted, open-handed, and desiring to pass this gift on to you, through the release of your soul to receive Spirit... Your Spirit.
Here in this space, I hope to encourage you to tap into your Truth... to take a journey into Your Light, and learn who and what God says You are... His.
