Becoming Yourself
The journey of becoming yourself is not always easy. It is perhaps the journey that requires the most from us in every aspect.
Our focus. Our time. Our energy. Our attention.
When you’ve been “missing” from yourself for so long, you sometimes pass the days idly in despair. In a constant, aching pain that never seems to lift or go away no matter how much you try. It makes dealing with the outside world and other people also difficult to handle because when we’re not home, how can we connect with others?
How do you begin the journey back home? How do you “find yourself”? How do you know when you’ve arrived at yourself?
Maybe it’s the feeling that you’re finally done searching “out there” for anyone to save you. Maybe it’s the feeling of a constant connection to the voice within your heart. Maybe it’s when you finally allow yourself to awaken from the numb, somnambulant state and begin to feel your feelings again.
Maybe it’s when you start trusting yourself. Maybe it’s when you begin living a self-directed life rather than obediently following the crowd or the demands of your boss or your parents.
Maybe it’s when you finally give in to your spark, to your flame. When you begin to radiate and embody your essence…
