I Hold the Lightning Now

Zeus you powerful God!

There are moments on the path when you pause and realise — I’ve come a long way. Maybe I shouldn’t even be standing, and yet, I am.

For a long time, I believed that power was something outside myself. Something given or earned. Something I had to wait for, prove myself worthy of. But over time, I began to understand that the strength I was looking for was already within me. The lightning was always in my hands — I just had to remember how to hold it.

One of the most defining points in my journey wasn’t loud or impressive. It was a quiet night where everything fell away — the distractions, the noise, the roles I thought I had to play. I felt hollowed out. Alone. Like I’d reached a dead end. But that moment wasn’t the end. It was the beginning of a deeper becoming.

What I discovered in that space wasn’t weakness. It was something unshakable.

I met the part of myself that doesn’t collapse when things get hard. The part that stands quietly in the storm and listens. The part that notices the eagle overhead — a symbol I’ve come to trust — showing up just when I need a reminder to keep going.

That eagle has been with me through many transitions. Whenever it appears, I know I’m still on the right path. I don’t need to force or prove anything — just keep walking.

Since then, I’ve moved through life with a steadier kind of knowing. Not the kind you read about or talk yourself into, but the kind that comes from going through hard things and coming out stronger.

These days, I’m not just surviving the journey — I’m choosing it.

I honour my gentleness, and I honour my fire. I trust the strength I carry, the insight I’ve earned, and the signs that continue to guide me. The lightning in my hands. The eagle in my sky.

This path is mine, and I’ve grown to love it.

If you’ve been looking for a little encouragement — this is it. You will get through whatever you’re in. You’re made for this path, even when it feels unclear or heavy. The more love, trust, and quiet confidence you hold within yourself, the lighter it becomes. Keep listening to your intuition. Keep walking with faith. You know more than you think. You hold the lightning now — and the eagle is flying with you.
