That is all
Give it time
I will reap what I sow
Just watch me
No more will I be confined by other people values and beliefs
I have my own to live by
Keep going
Plod on.
But one thing I failed to acknowledge for so long is that what I was picking up in others wasn't definitive of others but of myself and my own insecurities, this is something I've preached for some time, but i only ever applied it to other people's point of view. No actually that's a lie, I forgot somewhere down the line that it is true for myself also... Like somehow I'm not included in these rules and laws...
But I am, I'm a human after all... And honestly no matter how much you fool yourself of your own authenticity and individualism, you're still just human.
Nothing wrong with that... We're individuals yet we're a collective...
.. I'm back...
I guess I know myself a lot better now
Maybe I'm just crazy hey?
Or maybe I'm completely sane?
I'll let you decide.
I'd like to say goodbye to many things,
Goodbye to a mind without focus
Goodbye to judgements - self imposed and otherwise
Goodbye to the know-it-all attitude I've developed...
Goodbye to fake friends
Goodbye to feeling less than what I am
Goodbye to self-limiting beliefs
And goodbye to my need to control my life completely...
Fact is the beauty of life is the twists and turns of it
The beauty of life is the not knowing
The beauty of life lies in looking beyond the treachery and seeing only gratitude
Seeing the rose from the thorns
Seeing the beauty of the snow instead of the death of the land..
Everything goes full cycle
Things get better then booosh they get worse...
This is okay...
Time to get back on track
See that spiral staircase?
I'm going up it... Not down...
The pressure squeezed my head too much
It squeezed my heart and chest to a point I couldn't breathe and my hands and arms went all numb...
It felt like I was having a heart attack... That's no good really is it?
That was warning enough...
But then in my treacherous attempt to balance, I just bounced the opposite way, run, run, run, jump, fly.... Fly so high...
Just to reach lower earth orbit and to plummet back down, with my wings damaged and my ego more than bruised....
Just stay on ground for a bit...
Walk around, marvel at what is....
Maybe fly short distances for practise...
Eventually these wings I've sewed back on with golden ethereal thread... They'll build up some more strength and I'll develop more control and we'll all fly again soon...
I trust myself.
And I know that I am enough.
Just as I am.
