The year is ending, and a lot of us are still going through changes. Wondering who we really are, are meant to be, or will achieve. We struggle with boundaries for fear of rejection, or isolation, but secretly we yearn to be truly seen or heard.
For me, I still struggle with this. I feel at times that I change something because something new and more “me” catches my eye, but what ends up happening is that, I still search. See, finding me, or finding you, will never be achieved because of someone else. Finding yourself is first recognizing you lost yourself, and then being brave enough to try something new. I have tried over and over, and even though inspiration may come from others, taking that information, and then pairing it with what resignates inside is where you are.
Honestly, a lot of the time the people you are inspired by are just doing the same things, or create the same emotions you crave. A card maker, they purely express creativity, and are not afraid to share it. The bmx biker takes risks, and tries defying acts that make them known. Who do you find awe in, and what action or emotion do they bring up within you?
To be truly heard and seen, you must know how to find you and bravely face the fears of isolation and rejection for the plain reason that you will be happier and confident, even if by yourself. This fear of being alone, it too must be addressed. You came into this world with people, so those who are like you are here, it just takes time to find them, and when you do, don’t forget to just say, “hello” and let them know they are seen and heard.
Ask ye, and it shall be given to you; seek ye, and ye shall find; knock ye, and it shall be opened to you.
Matthew 7:7 WBMS
