Sometimes, what holds us back isn't the world—it’s the whisper inside that says, “You can’t.”
These quiet, hidden narratives—called limiting beliefs—often masquerade as truth. They sound like “I’m not ready,” “I don’t have what it takes,” or “People like me don’t get to do that.” Paired with resistance—the emotional weight that shows up right when we’re about to grow—it can feel like standing at the edge of something beautiful, but being too scared to dive in.

What if it’s a signpost, your own lighthouse pointing toward the very thing your soul came here to do?
This gentle reflection is an invitation to meet those old stories with compassion, to re-frame them, and to choose differently. Not because you're broken—but because you're evolving. Because you're alive. And as we know live fish swim, splash and choose their current.

As you are.’ says the universe. ‘After…’ you answer. ‘As you are.’ says the universe. ‘Before…’ you answer. ‘As you are.’ says the universe. ‘When…’ you answer. ‘As you are.’ says the universe. ‘How…’ you answer. ‘As you are.’ says the universe. ‘Why…’ you answer. ‘Because you are happening now. right now. right at this moment and your happening is beautiful. the thing that both keeps me alive and brings me to my knees. you don’t even know how breathtaking you are. as you are.’ says the universe through tears. — as you are | you are the prayer
