Welp, yet again The Daily Love is exactly what I need to hear.

"What angers us in another person is more often than not an unhealed aspect of ourselves. If we had already resolved that particular issue,we would not be irritated by its reflection back to us."

- Simon Peter Fuller

The more time I spend on The Path, the more I realize how important it is to tell your truth. Now, the previous sentence, in the hands of a crazy person, is just a prescription for more craziness.

 

There is a difference between telling your truth and saying anything that comes to your mind. Just because you have a thought, doesn't make it your truth. When I say how important it is to tell your truth, I'm not giving you permission to emotionally vomit on everyone you know. No.

 

What I'm talking about is the sacred duty you have to yourself, to The Uni-verse and to those that you Love, to be as honest, truthful and authentic about how you are feeling and what your heart TRULY believes about whatever you are going through.

 

Many of my clients and a lot of the emails that I get share the same theme: people make themselves up to be something they are not to please other people and then wonder where the real Love, passion and magic IS!

 

You can only have the passion, the Love and the magic by being and sharing from your authentic self. When we settle or when we change ourselves to please other people, deep down we no longer cherish, honor and respect ourselves. And then WE TEACH other people how to treat us - by the way that we treat ourselves.

 

It's magic.

 

And here's the thing - if you have people in your life who are not okay with you being your authentic self and living truly from your heart and honoring and cherishing your empowerment, it's best to Love those folks from a far. Don't hold on to people because there is a small pay off of affection and attention because you are afraid nothing better is going to come along! NO!

 

Let them go. If you've never actually BEEN yourself, if you've never actually stepped into your authentic shoes, if you've never actually acted on the true Love that you have for yourself, then of course you won't think the world will bring you anything better - because you never allowed it to in the first place.

 

The Uni-verse can only give us that which we are able to receive, and if you've been settling for crumbs your whole life, then it makes sense to believe there is no feast coming. But that's total BULL. There IS a feast of Love and passion and magic available to you. But you first have to BE YOURSELF FULLY before that kind of rawness can find you.

 

And by the way, if someone doesn't accept you for who you are, WHY OH WHY are you holding on to him or her? You deserve Love. You deserve joy. You deserve the BEST that The Uni-verse and Life has to offer - so start treating yourself as if you do!

 

Who can you let go of today? How can you express your authentic self today? Who in your life can you accept more of today?
