One time someone whos opinion meant a lot to me at that time said to me, in an awful disgusted tone, God, youre so wounded. I remember the shock in my soul, that someone outside myself whom I liked & admired, could be so thoroughly & coldly accusatory of the vulnerabilities I had chosen to share with them. It had never occurred to me that another would choose to view my pain as a negative statement on my character, for I certainly didnt. Just because one has been wounded, doesnt make them a victim, & I have most often felt that the very experiences that have cut me most deeply have also empowered me thru virtue of their very emotional nature, connecting me clearly with the dichotometric essence of our existence, & pushing me to evolve thru right use of will & expansion of my higher mind. But that lower nature, as some would call it or judge it, has always been sacred to me, being the birthplace of raw creative expression of the self. The longer I live the less I am afraid to feel, & the more accepting I have become of the beauty within our often not-so-beautiful stories. When we can support one another in being as real & open as possible, then we have the amazing opportunity to heal our collective experience. Over the past several years I have faced many moments of self doubt, as I continue to work to transform my weaknesses into strengths, & my dreams into reality. During those times of inner insecurity the words someone else cast upon me have played over & over in my head. It has helped me greatly to grow past the need for approval or understanding from anybody else outside myself. In a perfect world, people wouldnt be so jaded or calloused toward one another, but this world was not made to be perfect & neither are we. We are, however, perfectly loved by Spirit & we can allow this love to manifest within ourselves if we are brave enough to forgo the misguided actions & opinions of others. Be strong on your path towards self love. In the end, it will become your beginning.
