“Don’t be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.” ~ Rumi
Have you found your way to the very SOUL of who you are?
Are you living your “own” AUTHENTIC life?
The quote above and the Elegance quote from my previous blog are both here on my Way of the Feminine Force Website under the title: “Working With Me.”
I gathered all the quotes, created a few of my own, and also wrote all the vignettes for my website back in 2015/2016 after working with a life coach.
A LOT of Life experience, even naivety, came before then, during that time, and since then . . . witnessing, observing, experiencing challenges. Challenges, set backs, even feeling sucker punched, all felt like initiations of the fire and flame, that holds the potential to alchemize wounds into wisdom over time.
Wisdom does not happen overnight, and then there is putting the wisdom into practice every single day.
I remember feeling the need to grow spiritually and deepen my spiritual knowledge in direct experience, especially if I was to offer what I felt Spirit was asking of me. For I was given the insight and foresight of the “Way of the Feminine Force” back in 2014. Spirit granted my request with some unexpected life experiences, although wrapped in a blanket of divine grace.
The human part of me could not appreciate with even an ounce of gratitude until very much later.
AUTHENTIC SOUL is where I feel the journey has brought me to today. This phrase has just recently popped into my consciousness with a resonance that keeps playing over and over, as if music that is asking to be expressed, written out, to be played and sung out loud.
AUTHENTIC SOUL has also been a personal path of discovery, a continual quest to know-and-own MY gifts, as well as MY strengths and weakness.
I realize it’s been MY PATH . . . and it continues to be MY quest every single day . . . towards living AUTHENTICLY and embodying SOUL. I share from what I have learned, in education, in practice and in life. Spirit has been my greatest teacher and mentor.
Another GIFT has been to walk alongside other AUTHENTIC SOULS, who are beautiful inside and out. These are the ones whom I share my time, energy, thoughts, laughter, tears and conversations. These are the people who have been PARAMOUNT to filling my heart with mutual love, respect, and support, as family, friends, clients, and community. They have an essence that innately raises the bar via their presence such that anyone willing and open, is catalyzed to deepen their desire to seek greater knowledge, purity of heart, contentment, joy, integrity and wisdom!
WISDOM within this human journey is to be “underscored and notarized as Divine Elegance” for the AUTHENTIC SOUL.
WISDOM is the guiding light of INSPIRATION and passion to fuel the flames of desired transformation when you choose to “Change-It-All,” committing fully to coming back to the table and re-writing without knowing ALL the details of “your new story.” Very much as I wrote under “Working With Me” although I have much more insight and direct experience than I did back then.
Like every author, YOU own and hold “your story” internally and in progress, not to be taken lightly, guarding it as sacred property; a highly unique, continuously creative, work of human endeavor and divine artistry. Sometimes you are stretched into action, as well as called to “sacred silence and stillness.” All scribed “inevitably” into every single edit, as well as each crumbled page, as you wait and reflect upon the next prompt to write.
No matter how long or short it takes to compile and bring to completion, you are the ORIGINAL author for ALL is encoded within your soul blueprint, nerve system and cellular matrix.
May you scribe and transcribe into RISING like the Phoenix from the ashes to live ELEGANCE, PEACE, LIGHT, PURE, AUTHENTIC SOUL ![]()

SOUL knows this lifetime is just one of many individual stories and “cosmic fairytales.”
ALL edits, endings, final chapters and epilogues are never truly final, simply contributions to the INFINITE. For the Creator has the on-going ETERNAL Edition, which is still in progress . . . “L O V E Rising.”
AND NEVER FORGET . . . all fables and fairytales have a moral, or profound piece of wisdom, often as a deeper, sometimes hidden message, that is woven between the lines to be passed down through the ages and generations of storytellers . . .
Thus REMEMBER . . . every human being is a cosmic traveler.
YOU are living a personal Hero’s Journey in this “Cosmic Fairytale” while aspiring to learn, grow and evolve as the AUTHENTIC SOUL. Authenticity is one of your sacred superpowers and can only be cultivated through the highs and lows, ebb and flow, comforts and throes of life. Your eyes may be the window to your light, but your pure heart is the doorway to God’s love, divine truth, courage, compassion, wonder and honor for ALL of life.
YOU are the Beloved Partner, coordinating with the Divine . . . writing, re-writing, editing . . . sometimes saying “What was I thinking???” . . . through the love, sweat, tears and laughter along the way . . . ultimately co-creating with the Creator the most amazing “Never-Ending-L O V E-Story.”
Blessed Be

XOXO ~ Cheryl ![]()
