Hey, Moonfam—it’s Jojo here, and I’ve been reflecting on something I really want to share with you all. You know how we’ve all been on this journey together, right? Moving through life, trying to find our way, figuring out how to navigate the chaos and beauty that surrounds us. Today, I want to talk about something deeply personal—something I believe will resonate with many of you. It’s my spiritual awakening story, and I hope that as I share it, you’ll find pieces of your own journey in it, too.

So, grab a cozy drink, settle in, and let’s take this walk together.

Wandering Through the Wilderness

For what feels like most of my life, I was wandering. It felt like I was on this endless, narrow path through a wilderness, unsure where I was heading. Every time something went wrong, it was like stumbling over rocks, getting scratched by tall grass, or walking into branches that blocked my way. Sound familiar?

There were fleeting moments of beauty along the way—a flower here or there—that made me pause and think, Maybe there’s more to this path than just struggle. But the hard parts always seemed to last longer. Recently, I hit a point where I felt stuck in the thick of it. The woods around me were so dense, barely any light could get through. I was exhausted—emotionally, spiritually—completely drained. So I just…stopped.

I lay down on that path, drifting in and out of sleep, feeling cold, and getting bitten by life’s “bugs,” if you know what I mean. I didn’t want to move. I didn’t think I had it in me anymore.

Hearing the Call (Even When You Don’t Want To)

But then, something happened. You know that feeling when you hear a voice—a gut instinct, or maybe your higher self—but it’s been so long since you last heard it, you almost don’t recognize it? That’s what it was like for me. I hadn’t heard this voice in forever, but it returned, softly calling my name. It was as if it had always been there, waiting patiently for me to listen again.

It told me to get up. But I was tired. So tired. I wanted to stay where I was, lying there in the darkness. Yet something inside me knew I couldn’t. Not forever.

So, I got up. I didn’t have the strength to stand yet, so I crawled. And wow, that crawl felt endless. Every inch forward felt like dragging a hundred pounds behind me. But as I moved, the light started to peek through the trees. Little by little. It wasn’t much, but it was enough to keep me going.

Finding Light (Even When It Feels Impossible)

Gradually, the darkness began to lift. I could see more of the path ahead. Sunlight broke through, and as it touched my skin, I felt a surge of warmth, of hope. I remember just sitting there for a while, letting the light soak in. I was still tired, still feeling the weight of where I’d been, but that light—it reminded me that the darkness wasn’t going to last forever.

Have you ever had that moment, Moonfam? Where you’re still in the thick of it, but suddenly something shifts, and you realize, Wait. I’ve got this. It’s like the universe gives you just enough light to take the next step.

I took that moment to reflect on everything I’d been through. I thought about how lost I felt when I was in the dark, how I didn’t know where to go or what was coming. And then I realized something. Even when I couldn’t see the way forward, there was always that voice. Even if it was quiet. Even when I ignored it. It was always there, guiding me.

Embracing the Magic of the Journey

Once I stood up again, the path before me was transformed. It was beautiful. The trees were glowing, almost like they were alive with energy. I could feel it in the air, this sense of magic all around. Light beings floated nearby, and vibrant flowers and mushrooms grew along the sides of the path. I felt the life in everything around me, and for the first time in a long time, I felt alive too.

I stayed there for a while, taking it all in. And as I did, I could feel myself getting lighter. It was like all that weight I’d been carrying was finally falling away. The more energy I regained, the louder the voice became. And then I saw something in the distance—just a silhouette at first—but it was moving toward me.

Meeting My Higher Self

As I walked closer, I noticed shadows lurking deep in the forest, just beyond the light. They couldn’t touch me because my path was illuminated, but I could see them trying. For a second, I felt uneasy. But then I realized: as long as I stay in the light, those shadows can’t harm me. And that’s true for all of us, Moonfam. Stay in the light, and nothing can pull you down.

When I got close enough, I realized that silhouette wasn’t someone else. It was me—my higher self. The part of me that’s been there all along, waiting for me to catch up. She was so familiar, like an old friend I hadn’t seen in a while. When I reached her, we embraced, and she whispered something I’ll never forget: “You are whole. You are worthy. You are enough.”

And in that moment, everything shifted. It was like I finally saw myself for who I really am. No masks. No pretending. Just me, in all my wholeness. It was the most beautiful feeling.

Let’s Reflect Together

As I sit here, writing this, I want you to know—wherever you are on your path, it’s okay. Whether you’re crawling through the darkness or basking in the light, you’re exactly where you need to be. There’s no rush, no wrong way to walk this path. Just listen for that voice, that inner knowing, and trust that it’s guiding you forward.

I want to leave you with this, Moonfam: when was the last time you listened to that voice? The one calling you forward? If you haven’t heard it in a while, don’t worry. It’s still there, waiting for you to listen. And when you do, I promise, the light will start breaking through.

You’ve got this. We’ve all got this—together.

Sending you all the love and light,

Jojo
