Exactly. Thank you.
What would shift if instead of "thinking" yourself out of fear, sadness, anger...that you actually were curious about it. Tuned into the sensations within your body, and seeking the wisdom of what is there. What is is trying to teach you? Welcome fear. Welcome sadness. Welcome anger.
It completely shifts the way in which we exist on this planet. Instead of pushing it away, stubbornly shifting back into the normal pattern of coping, letting ego take over - we allow for the sensations of pain, for the struggle, the anguish.
Then as we walk through it, and not around it, we process what it means, and take away its power over us. It's power to stay stuck within us.
That kind of freedom is the light in the world. It is what allows for love and not resentment. It is what helps us see others through the eyes of God. We have cleared the muck within, instead of continuing to carry it around with us.
Sounds hard, and scary, and for some shameful. Let's stop allowing those things to stop us, and start remembering we are capable of bravely and with perseverance, running the race, not dodging around it.
The other side is rich with beauty, color, love and joy. Exactly what was promised. Heaven on Earth.
