May stretched me in a way I will never forget.
I’m not the woman I was two weeks ago, and that is an irrefutable fact.
If you’ve been following along, you might have noticed that I’ve been quiet here. That wasn’t absence. That was excavation.
The month of May didn’t just challenge me; it asked for my identity. It demanded the death of my old self in a way I could never have imagined. Like the old me doesn’t even exist. If we spoke two weeks ago that version of me doesn’t exist anymore.
May asked me to turn my understanding upside down and see life from a completely different angle. And what I discovered in that uncomfortable posture changed my life forever.
I learned to pour from an empty cup and still show up with excellence.
I learned to stand in lack and still offer my best.
I learned to be on the losing end and still refuse to shrink.
I’ve never been one to romanticize that type of grind or glorify running on empty. I preach giving only when you have and doing only what you can. But May quickly taught me that I am not a dock or a storage facility where things are simply deposited and withdrawn. I am a conduit; built not to contain, but to be a channel; to allow something greater than myself to move through me.
The legacy attached to my life is bigger than me, and it requires me to operate at a capacity that is only possible when I embody this truth.
I have come to understand that the willingness to be a conduit rather than a vault is exactly what true stewardship requires; allowing oneself to be a bearer of light despite one’s current circumstances.
For me, this is the greatest surrender, the deepest devotion, and the highest form of service. It is the mark of true greatness.
