With the world in it's current condition... How do we stay true?
How do we stay ourselves without becoming jaded, rigid, sour, hardened or bitter?
How to we keep sincere connections with people?
It seems we are constantly crashing into each other, absorbing the impact, without even asking one another "Are you ok?"
I want everything to change and I want nothing to change.
We have to, as humans, protect one another.
We have to, as humans, protect ourselves.
The only way to be people we want to be, is to deal with our own condition.
If we refuse to take a good long look at who and what we have become... then we find ourselves amidst the disingenuous masses crashing yet again one into the other
and pick pocketing the souls of our fellow man.
THE ONLY WAY TO BECOME THE PERSON YOU WANT TO BE IS WITHOUT HIDING!
I am not saying you have to post all of your shit on every social media outlet.
Nobody wants to see your piles of dirty laundry.But I am saying.
We have to own our shit.
Our insecurities, our walls, our demons...
Be vulnerable... to someone.
Be honest... to everyone.
Be true... to yourself.
We have to deal with the pain. We have to express ourselves. Find your own cathartic expression. You can't do it alone.
We have to release the things that are the hardest to let go of.
And we have to move forward.
I am 29 years old.
I have probably made more mistakes than most people.
Actually I am pretty sure I made ALL of the mistakes that there are to make.
I can promise I will make more.
But what I won't do ... is make the same ones again.
Cause I'm not hiding anymore.
I am dealing with my shit.
:)
