By Dr. Gail Cloud
Who did I used to be
Certainly I used to be somebody
As I get older and old enough to join the purple hat club
With my full head of gray hair
I notice that people look at me differently
Doors get opened graciously
And I no longer am looked at as someone who is somebody
I am looked at as someone who might have been
What she was, no one knows
Can they see I was a dancer
That is something they probably can’t answer
Can they see I was a mother and a wife
Does that even count as others look at my life
Can they see I am a doctor, because once you are one you are always a doctor
And would they even know the type
Or am I now just an archetype
Does being an astrologer count
What does one look like anyway
In younger ones eyes, does that even amount to anything of importance
Yet being someone is all of our inheritance
Is it enough to just be
Not necessarily somebody of monetary success and power
Or some transient professional of the hour
But someone who lived and loved and felt and experienced and failed and
worked and succeeded and had friendships and loves
I was somebody and now embody all that I am
And that is enough for me
We are all somebody. Sometimes it is difficult for us to realize our purpose and to recognize our gifts much less utilize them.
Do you recognize your worth? Even being “just a mother and partner”, for example, is doing great work and has great value.
If you would like to take a closer look at your gifts and value and your life’s purpose, reach out to me and we will set up a session and explore your gifts and purpose through many lenses. One of the lenses is through the work of Family Constellations, and another is through the lens of what our astrological charts show us.
