Artwork Description

Enlightening (Witness)

0.0 x 0.0

To witness is the ability to see clearly, to be impartial, and most importantly, to not take things personally. I often hear spiritual advice to embrace non-attachment, but honestly, it's a hard act to pull off when stirred by life's dramas and mortality. Relations with family can be especially challenging. Daughters commonly are overly sensitive in interactions with their mothers...been there, done that, won the prize. Even as an adult, my mother could easily stir me with a single word or look. It took work: vulnerability and healing to get me unstuck. By creating a foundation of emotional health, today I'm able to listen and share in an innocent way that I couldn't do before. I've grown to enjoy our relationship and love my dear mother as she is.
