I come from my mother. She comes from her mother. And her mother comes from her mother and so forth. The cycle of life continues and hopefully one day I’ll be a mother, too.
I am in deep gratitude to have such a beautiful relationship with my mother and of course that is, because she showed me always so much love and made it so easy for me to feel safe, nourished and supported. She is the reason why I want to become a mother as well in the future. She is the reason why I trust that I can face any obstacle in my way, because she will be there for me, alongside my father and the rest of my family. But her womb, her body is my ultimate home, my place of origin, where my body was created. I need to write that again: my mothers womb is where my body was created. Wow. And she went through the most painful moments in her life to allow me to be born into this life. She taught me, ultimately, that out of fear and pain can come new life, can come the best thing you can imagine - if you keep going.
And the older I get the more I learn and understand the miracle of being a woman, to be a body that is able to create life, to experience death and rebirth every month with my menstruation. I keep realizing how f**king powerful I am, how powerful womanhood is, to be part of something bigger, how healing it is for us all to come together as women, but also just as humans and connect with our hearts. I want to be part of a new generation that celebrates every kind of women, that sees this world as our mother, Mama Gaia, and that shows her the love and respect she deserves for she is the home, she is the mother of all the mothers that have been and will ever be.
