For most of your life, you have been afraid.
I get it.
The world might seem crazy.
Terrifying with all its different rodeos, troubles, schemes, opinions…
You might have gone through experiences that have fragmented your most inner and precious of ideas.
You might have broken down in tears, in pain, in regret.
The world might have unveiled to you its darkest of shadows, its loneliest of places…
And even though all of this might seem terrible, violent, and inhuman…
It was all expected. It was all right in some sense.
Because the world was just being honest with you.
About all that lies inside of it.
The people it has grown up with. The beautiful landscapes it has built into it. The bad good, and gray experiences that surround its sphere.
The world was just being honest.
So I want to ask you: Are you honest about it?
There´s this phrase I heard the other day:
“It´s not about accepting yourself and changing the world. It´s about accepting the world and changing yourself.”
I reframed it as: it´s not about them, it´s about you.
You define what the lessons are in play.
If someone broke you, you either decide to break them or the world… or just be honest and do something for you with that brokenness.
If the world showed you all of the experiences it has to offer, good and bad… you can decide to keep them all, or just one of the parts.
Are you being honest?
Are you aligning your actions towards goals that mean something to you?
Are you living experiences that nurture your vision?
Are you surrounding yourself with people who can support and build alongside you?
Or are you lying to yourself and keeping, living, and sharing all the world shows you, no filter?
That´s some honesty you´ll find there.
I hope this reflection helps you build more meaningful relationships with yourself and others.
Help you work on projects that align with your vision
And ultimately live a life that matters for the truth you know you seek and need.
Talk soon,

🧠 Reflection
Take time to relieve your soul.
You might feel empty and drained.
Just breath. Go for a walk.
Go to see a friend. Go and seek the sunset.
Hug the sky.
You are human.
Remind yourself about that.
