Find love and light in your deepest of wounds. Its in your wounds that you will find who you truly are. It's in these wounds and healing them that you will eventually find peace.
It's completely okay to not be okay.
Because really, as much as we pretend, sometimes it isn't okay.
Sometimes you're not okay, and you don't have to put on a smile trying to convince everyone you're alright.
Sometimes, things really do hurt you...badly...and you don't have to pretend that you're unwoundable.
We all are. That's what makes us human.
We all suffer in completely different ways from one another but in the end, we are all feeling something deep down in our hearts.
Life would be very boring if there weren't any opportunities to get hurt. But that's what makes life worth living - the ability to risk for the reward and to recover when we lose.
But you never get anywhere by being fake. You have to be real. You have to be so real that the world sees you for who you truly are.
Every time you try to pretend, your soul knows your lying. You're cheating on your true nature and are completely out of alignment with what you know is right.
The greatest healing is done with honesty, compassion, and love towards yourself. If we can turn our compassion towards ourselves and heal old wounds, we allow ourselves to take on the pains of others with compassion as well.
But when we avoid our own suffering, we will continue to suffer endlessly.
You have to dive into what's uncomfortable. You have to go to the places you're deeply scared of and be willing to face your deepest fears.
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.
