Post 10 of 10 of LoveYourzStory’s Jhené Aiko Series. Inspired by “Promises.”
I’m deep in my Jhené Era. She’s def the top artist I’ve been listening to on repeat for at least the last 6 months. This series will be a showcase of how her music has inspired me throughout this journey – the journey back to self✨️
Blue skies. Plants. Birds. Butterflies.
The peaceful sound of waterfalls in the distance.
You’re surrounded by light and life.
Your wrinkle lines are visible as you start to smile.
I’m looking up at you, in awe that I have the privilege to meet with you in this dimension.
There are no words being shared, I start to wonder if you’re even aware that I’m here…
But I don’t care, I’m seeing you in your new element.
Time moves slowly here, there’s absolutely no rush.
Birds land on your shoulders, butterflies surround you, you’re intrigued by the plants.
I can watch you enjoy this present moment forever – And it seems like forever.
But then the sound rings…
How long has it been? … I know it’s time.
My stomach drops, my throat tightens up, my eyes swell with tears.
I hate goodbyes.
“Tatay, I have to go,” I tell you crying. “I won’t get to see you anymore.”
You brush it off and continue doing what you’re doing, all with a smile on your face.
I explain the severity of what’s happening – this is potentially goodbye forever.
We both have to go back, who knows if there will be another time – how can you be so calm?
“But look where I am, I’m so happy. It’s not goodbye, I’m everywhere.”
And I believe that whole heartedly, with every fiber of my being.
I take off the blind fold, I’m weeping.
How lucky was I to have seen a glimpse of your world.
I am reminded through constant signs, alignments, and blessings – you’re everywhere.
I understand now and truly believe it – there is no end.
