About a month or so ago, I reached out to a variety of moms that I know to record themselves in prayer. Prayers most authentic to their hearts. Prayers that will resonate all who want/need a little mother love.
I received a variety of blessings in my inbox. Please take some time to pray/meditate/listen/resonate with the variety of prayers/poetry/art/music.
I'm so grateful for the people in my life who give me access to their most tender parts. I'm grateful for the this space to also work on my own healing with the support of these beautiful voices.
Thank you!
To my mother who taught me the power of prayer
To my bonus mum who gave me her blessing to use the music at the beginning of the episode which was women who were friends with my bonus mother (Evelyn Musoni), my father, friends of the family, relatives, neighbors...praying in song in celebration of the life my father lived and sending him on. The song, according to my bonus mum, is basically saying "Run as fast as you can so you can sign in the book of the blessed one."
I took the message to also mean run to your blessings before you cannot.
