Find solace in touching your deepest wounds. There you will find yourself. There you will find peace.
It's okay to say "it's not okay."
Because really, as much as we pretend, sometimes it isn't okay.
There are going to be situations in life where you're really not fine and even more importantly, you don't have to pretend that you're fine.
Life hurts at times. Even as much as you would probably like to be completely unwoundable, you're not. We are all woundable.
This is what makes us all unique.
While we all have different lives, we all suffer in very similar ways and all have cuts and bruises on our hearts.
But this is beautiful because it's all something that we share. If we were all perfect and had no scars, our lives would all be incredibly dull and boring.
Never put on a mask to hide yourself from the world. You have to be real and to always stay true to yourself.
Don't cheat yourself by pretending to be someone or something you're not. Your heart knows the difference between the real you and the fake you. Every time you try to fake it you create chaos within yourself.
True healing is done when you decide to take serious amounts of love and compassion to your deepest wounds. You have to be willing to go to the deepest darkest corners of your heart where you are hurting badly and gently touch those wounded places.
But when we avoid our own suffering, we will continue to suffer endlessly.
Every single day you have to be willing to confront your deepest fears and be willing to heal the wounds that are asking for your attention.
This journey won't be the easiest journey of all, but it will be worth it. Because when you finally dive in, you're going to be able to truly see for the first time that all of the dancing shadows of your fears were just shadows and nothing truly real.
Never worry about heading into the dark...
You are the light.
And as the light, you will illuminate even your greatest of worries.
