Live your life fully.
Easier said than done, wouldn’t you agree? Those ouchie moments can feel pretty darn ouchie. It’s always easier to embrace the good days. Yet often, the moments that hurt us the most — the uncomfortable ones — are the very things that grow and shape us.
But we run. We hide. We avoid taking it on.
These are experiences, not definitions of who we are.
It’s such a tricky balance because we get sucked in and allow others to decide whether we are worthy. We let their judgment pe*****te our being. And in turn, we beat ourselves up long after the people who judged or ridiculed us have already left the building.
Like an echo chamber, we continue the abuse on their behalf.
I know this all too well. And I don’t like it one bit.
I can catch myself sometimes, but usually by the time I realize what’s happening, I’m already paralyzed — trapped in my own cycle of self-abuse.
Many will understand this. Others won’t. And I’ve had to come to terms with that too.
It just feels gross sometimes.
When will consistency with myself begin?
When will love and grace for myself finally show up?
How did this even happen?
The silent fight for autonomy over your own mind… your own soul… where it matters most.
