Ah there is so much of that festive feeling in the air with lights twinkling, presents and parties to go to.  The magic of the season is weaving it's way around this space and there are plenty of good things to celebrate.  

Yesterday, I had a particularly deep coaching session and discover a really entrenched shadow piece that had been long buried.  It's been working its way to the surface for a few months now but yesterday it showed up in full force.  I'm no stranger to 
doing shadow work...in fact I've gotten to the point where I rather
enjoy it.  Yes it's painful and hard and filled with moments of ugly crying but it's also the place where I learn I am much stronger than I give myself credit for. 

When I embrace and even celebrate my shadow pieces, they change into compost that feed the highest vision of myself.  

So I wish to celebrate the dark places; the one's I've embraced and the ones I have yet to come to terms with.  May I always remember my dream life benefits from dark spaces as much as light spaces.
