Find solace in touching your deepest wounds. There you will find yourself. There you will find peace.
It's completely okay to not be okay.
Because sometimes, it really isn't okay.
Putting on a smile to try to convince everyone that you're alright is never that convincing. Everyone can tell. Why not be vulnerable with them and tell them the truth?
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.
That's what makes each of us unique. We suffer in different ways. Experience life in different ways.
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.
Be real as all hell. Be authentic. Be every last inch of yourself and never stray from your path.
Because every time you pretend to be someone you're not, you create chaos within yourself. Your own soul doesn't even recognize the person you are.
So the only way to truly heal is to bring buckets full of love and compassion towards yourself. We are the only ones that can heal our deepest wounds so we must be the ones who take that journey within. Without taking the journey, the wounds will always be left unhealed.
However, if we avoid taking this journey, that's when your deepest suffering continues.
Healing is done when you head straight into the dark. Straight into the shadows of what you're scared of - lantern in hand - willing to shed light onto your 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.
Don't worry about heading into the dark tunnel of fear...
Because you are the light.
This light will illuminate everything you've ever feared.
