Welcome,

This spoken word offering is named The Lotus Knows.

It's an offering for anyone finding their way through pain,

Doubt or darkness.

For those who feel like they should be blooming but can't yet find the sun.

This is not a fix but a remembering,

A rerouting in your sacred unfolding.

Let these words hold you like warm water.

Let this moment be your mirror.

The Lotus Knows There is mud,

Yes,

Heavy,

Clinging,

Ancient with ache.

The kind that whispers,

Stay low,

It's safer not to bloom.

But deeper than the mud's voice is a root,

Your root.

Drinking light you forgot you still had.

There is a rhythm to your rising,

It doesn't need to be quick,

It only needs to be real.

And the lotus,

She does not curse the water,

She does not rush the sun.

She unfolds when ready,

And not one moment sooner.

She is not the mud,

She is not the weight,

She is the answer the mud never saw coming.

You are the bloom the world is waiting for,

Not in spite of your pain but because of it.

You are the mud made miracle,

The golden key hidden beneath centuries of doubt.

The ache and the anthem,

You are not just becoming,

You are the prophecy of your own healing.

And even now,

In the heaviness,

The stillness,

The almost breaking,

Your petals remember how to open.

You do not need to force your way upward,

You need only to say,

I am still here,

I am still unfolding.

Let the sun find you,

Let the water soften you,

Let your soul speak through every softened edge.

The lotus knows what she's doing,

She's done it for lifetimes,

So have you.

You are not the struggle,

You are the story,

You are the bloom.

Rise beloved,

Not like lightning but like remembering.

Remember you are not lost,

You are just becoming.

Thank you for listening.
