Many words with the letter B

Hovering over the ''publish'' button...

In our society, I've noticed a prevalent tendency—perhaps it's a collective inclination or just my personal observation—to openly share our challenges far more than our achievements, this done in a sincere pursuit not to come across as self-aggrandizing.

It often seems simpler to highlight what we still aspire to achieve, rather than dwelling on what we've already accomplished. For many of us it is far more comfortable to downplay our blessings in conversations, striving to maintain an approachable and relatable persona. A quiet and ignominious attempt to not be a bragger.

However, today, my heart overflows with profound gratitude for the blessings that have graced my life. It is not my intention to boast, but rather to share the pure joy and enthusiasm that fills my heart.

This year has been astonishingly generous to me. And my life, in general, despite its gruesome horrors and gory tribulations, has too been exceptionally kind to me. The fabric of my years is an“R” rating spring. Bloody and yet bountiful. Butcherly blossomward. And I am nothing short of profoundly grateful.

The last few weeks I had the extraordinary privilege of being invited to speak in Argentina on a topic I hold deep within my heart, and to my surprise, I am being even paid to do it.

In addition to this, I tripled the capacity of the wild midwifery school I created this year to share my passion. School that is receiving the most heart-warming reception and feedback.

Furthermore, I received breathtaking news that my very first children's book is currently in the process of being printed and will soon be in the shelves of all English and German-speaking countries come next spring. And to my sheer amazement, my contract with the publisher is said to be the most significant deal of said prominent literary house.

I am deeply grateful to call a natural paradise my home and to be encircled by beings I so deeply love.

I remain in awe of the graces, privilege, and good fortune that have come my way, unable to fathom what I might have done to merit them. Yet, I carry in my heart a sincere determination to prove myself worthy of these gifts each and every day. Oh how I hope to be worthy of them.

I recognize that for every moment of success, there is an equally humbling moment of challenge. I am deeply grateful for both the highs I’ve encountered and the lows I’ve faced, as well as those that await me in the future.

I hope to prove worthy of both.
