Be Your Own Unicorn………….
Do your kids just
surprise you constantly with their own sense of style?
What about the things they say or do. Have you
looked at them all amazed or wierded out or just in awe?
If we looked up a make belief creature in a real dictionary we might find: “a
mythical animal usually depicted as a white horse with a single straight
spiraled horn growing from its forehead”. Ahhhh but the unicorn is so much more
than that, it’s the ability to be whoever you want to be.
The unicorn represents love, purity and the seeking
of Truth in all things.
We learn how to be closer to heaven, we learn to be
more grounded, we learn to appreciate more and forgive easier.
We learn that our little unicorns display such
youthfulness and energy, that even though we may be annoyed by, we are more
jealous that we don’t have that kind of energy.
We look at our Unicorn in awe; we look at them with
the distinct feeling of independence, and not us having that from them, but
them pulling that from us. They want to do everything on their own, be an
individual and complete their own uniqueness with ease, but it’s not always
easy for them.
Allowing your Unicorn to be different is so easy in
the beginning, but I can imagine it could become frightening later on in their
teenage years.
However if they learn that from a young age that you
support who they are, what they want to be when they grow up, or allow them to
be themselves, then shouldn’t it be easier later?
I often look at my unicorn and feel so blessed to know that she is a tough
one who isn’t so fragile. She has had an amazing life with few struggles and
definitely her ups and downs of going back and forth and house to house but she
is still a happy little unicorn.
I’m very positive that she will be faced with so many
struggles as she grows, I mean come on this is life after all, not a
fairytale, and even though I know she will have difficulties in her life, I’m
confident that she will always get through it.
As we have grown and moved into our own lives with
our own unicorns I have been able to witness such a beautiful site, one of
which that comes in the form of love.
I feel so blessed to know that my dear friends, who
I may not be in the best contact with all the times, have managed to let their
little unicorn’s blossom into their own.
I love getting all of our unicorns together to dance
and play and fight and love and be kids. And isn’t that the best feeling,
seeing their faces light up?
They know that you love them, and they know you
would do anything for them, but right now all you want to do is just smile at
them, because you, yes you have done an awesome job and you deserve to hear it.
Dont let them fall into some category of what people
think they are suppose to do.
Let them figure it out on their own.
Let them choose.
Let them Be……..
Let them be a Unicorn……..
