Coming Back to Yourself: A Sacred Return Home

Inspired by “Honey on the Altar” by Sunni Greene

There comes a moment—whether whispered through a quiet sunrise or roared in the ache of heartbreak—when you realize you've been living outside of yourself. Drifting. Overgiving. Surviving.

But not being.

And then, like soft honey finding its way back to the comb, you begin the sacred return… back to yourself.

Coming back to yourself isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about remembering the truth you were born with. That you are divine. That you are sacred. That you are already whole.

This homecoming isn’t always loud or grand. Sometimes it looks like deep rest. Like drinking tea in silence. Like writing poems that only your ancestors will read. Sometimes it looks like saying “no” when your body wants you to rest. Or “yes” to your own pleasure, peace, and power.

Honey on the Altar was born from that space—a reclamation of my softness, my sacred rage, my laughter, my grief. Each page is a prayer, an offering to the divine within me and within you.

You don’t need anyone’s permission to return. The altar is already set. Your soul has been waiting, arms wide open.

So today, ask yourself:

• What part of me have I abandoned that’s ready to come home?

• What rituals feel like love to my body?

• How can I honor the honey that I am—sweet, ancient, golden, and healing?

You don’t have to rush.

You don’t have to be perfect.

You only have to be willing.

Because when you come back to yourself, you come back to God. You come back to love. You come back to truth. And baby, you were never really lost—you were just being gently guided back to the altar of your own becoming.

Let this be your season of return.

Let this be your honey year.
