REMEMBERING

ā€œWe do not become healers. We came as healers. We are.

Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
?
We do not become storytellers. We came as carriers of the stories we and our ancestors actually lived. We are.

Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
?
We do not become artists. We came as artists. We are.

Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
?
We do not become writers, dancers, musicians, helpers, peacemakers. We came as such. We are.

Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
?
We do not learn to love in this sense. We came as Love. We are Love.

Some of us are still catching up to who we truly are.ā€

–Clarissa Pinkola Estes
