To - ANYONE WHO HAS EVER LOVED or FELT PAIN,
I’m about to get very real, because, we all should be. The personal journey of never-ending self-reflection that those of us are on, can feel shitty, at times. The journey can feel excellent, too.
I’m validating all your emotions. You were right to feel that way when you did. Because you were doing the best you could at that time. So let that person, that version of you…off the hook. I know it’s very disheartening to accept the futility of a situation gone sour.
Here’s the thing. I’ve noticed some common pitfalls.
For those of us who are trying to “get to the bottom” of something in our lives…in case you haven’t noticed yet…there is no “bottom”. For those of us who are the “deep inner healing” path, there’s a reason it hasn’t worked yet.
You cannot go into it thinking, “I’m going to change this part of myself. I’m going to gaslight myself by turning this negative experience into a positive outcome.” This. Is. The. Lie. See - whatever happened to make you feel this way - wasn’t okay. You were right to feel the way you did.
I see the disappointment in yourself when you let yourself down. I see people betray themselves daily. I sit here thinking, “How the hell do they expect to ever love themselves if they’re denying, disowning, rejecting, and pushing away, a part of themselves?” It’s the ultimate betrayal; separation.
It’s because we lie to ourselves.
Because - in case you hadn’t noticed - if what you were doing was working - IT WOULD HAVE WORKED BY NOW. You know?
Great. So.
Here’s a challenge. If you’re in pain, I’m asking to accept that you’re in pain. To feel it, doesn’t mean you’ve “accepted” it. Care MORE about yourself than the “daily affirmations” you’re beating yourself up for.
I want you to love + care about yourself so much that it doesn’t matter if you’re “better” or “fixed”.
Here’s the spoiler alert. It’s not about “getting better”. It’s not about “changing” any part of who you are. Create space for your pain to co-exist in the light with you. I want you to feel this.
Do you feel how when you say, “I want to be better”, you’re telling yourself to be something other than what you are? I’m not asking you to approve of the conditions, by any means.
The reality is that we’ve never accepted that it’s okay to feel our emotions. Which means we’ve never given ourselves permission to be who we are. Throw “authenticity” out the door. We like the version of ourselves that “feels good”…and we abandon ourselves when we don’t. Right?
So that’d be the definition of being our own worst enemy, yes?
That’s the reality.
I’m not going to be gentle about this. It’s time to wake up, sunshine, and see that the key to your pain, is in your pain. Pain is your body saying, “Hey! I’m something you’ve been suppressing! I want to come up for healing! If you keep pushing me away…I’ll show up in more nefarious ways. I am suppressed emotional pain. I will graduate to physical pain because there is no separation between the two.”
Do you see how pernicious this cycle can become?
I want you to honor all your emotions because otherwise, I’d be asking you to betray yourself. No. Instead - LOVE yourself so hard it hurts. I’m not asking you to like pain. Love yourself, with NO conditions attached. “Love” is taking something’s best interests as your own best interests…as to become one, again…oneness, whole, etc...
I don’t care who you are. You ARE SO deserving of love.
This is the way things are. Take it or leave it.
You cannot remind people who they are when they would rather forget.
THREE FACES OF ADAM shows what can happen when we forget.
I don’t want you to feel sad. I don’t want you to feel happy. I want you. All you. The way you are. Right now. In THIS moment. No conditions.
Spoiler alert - that’s what unconditional love is. Walk the talk.
