As a young woman I found myself in many situations where I
would use my power of giving and literally give it (my power) all away. My
time, my talents, my money, everything that I had… I would… irresponsibly give
away. Even when I knew I shouldn’t I did. Why? Because it felt so good to save
the day. I felt like Wonder Woman!
I said that I did it out of love but really
what I was doing it for was for recognition, to be loved and to be held in the
highest esteem. I used the power of giving in the wrong way and I realized this
later in my life.
Today, I can give in healthy ways. I pay attention to what
resonates on a soul level! I make contributions of my time, talent and treasure
when it FEELS right! I believe that giving and receiving are one in the same.
Each time I give, I receive! Each time I give, I create an experience of true
prosperity!
Being a part of the Fly Tribe is one of the greatest honors
of my life. Although most of the flyers I have never met in person the
collective energy of love and community is alive! A year ago I could have
never imagined the gifts that I would receive as a result of finally giving
something to myself. Signing up for Flying Lessons with Kelly Rae Roberts has
been one of the best things I have done for myself! It has brought me closer to
claiming the idea that I am an artist, closer to my true self, closer to a
group of women that support each other in loving and very genuine ways.
The positive vibrations lead me to be a more aware artist
and a more open human. I have experienced first hand the wonderful benefits of
giving.
When it felt right I would create a piece of artwork and mail it or
drop it off to a friend, I would send along messages of encouragement, I have
visited them in their homes and listened with my heart. I have been called
wise, compassionate, patient, caring, loving and soulful-giver.
What has been
given to me as a result of being more aware and open to these relationships is an
indescribable sense of belonging and it just feels so fabulously good! It really is magical!
Being a part of the Fly Tribe has allowed me to open more
freely in my everyday life. I have taken chances that I would normally shy away
from. I can pull from the collective strength of this wonderful group and
tackle difficult challenges and face those problems that seemed just too much
to take. I have become fearless in my approach to life. I feel that I have
pulled back so many layers in the last year that I am shedding my old skin and
looking at a new face.
I wish this and so much more to those individuals who receive this great gift of giving! As the Fly Tribe and Kelly Rae Roberts soulfully donate Flying Lessons Courses to a lucky group, my hope is that you all experience the wonderful growth and uplifting vibration that will surely follow!
I want to take this last couple of lines to thank every
single woman that I have connected with online, in person or in spirit. My life
is enhanced as a result of your presence…thank you and Namaste!
