Truth. No one can tell you what yours is.

You have to connect with it yourself, listen to your own heart and belly, connect with your own intuition at the third eye.

Some of us have spent so much time fighting off another’s imposing energy that we aren’t able to access, process or express our own feelings. They get lost in our attempts to placate and validate the other. This is especially difficult if the other is a loved one whom we deeply care about.

I am learning how to be my Truth with those closest to me. I used to avoid being close and/or not share my Truth so that I didn’t have to disappoint, anger and upset another. That doesn’t work anymore.

I am also learning that everything I had assumed was True, isn’t. That what I once thought was “Spiritual” or a “Spiritual way” to act or perceive isn’t necessarily applicable if it doesn’t align with my own deep Truth in any given moment.

You can slap a spiritual slogan or distinction on any situation, wrap it in a tidy little package and call it complete, but if you are doing it at the expense of covering up or denying your own Truth then you are truly straying from the point of it all.

There is no answer, no ‘one size fits all’ solution.

Life is messy and complicated.

It takes something to navigate through all of it while staying present, connected to your feelings and being in your Truth. Especially if you have experienced trauma.

I acknowledge myself for sitting in the muck until my own Truth emerges instead of running away, checking out, or accepting old paradigms and programming as just ‘the way that it is’...

And for anyone who is reading this who is also in the process to Connect with Who You Truly Are, I acknowledge you too.

You are not alone.
