Emotional pain is not a feeling. Emotional pain is resistance to feeling. This is the main cause of our suffering – we do not want feel. Sure we enjoy experience of joy, love and pleasure, but when it comes to what we labels “negative emotions” we try to avoid it.
Why? Maybe we had a bad ( again a label) experience with it in the past. Maybe we are afraid to become honest with ourselves about it, not to mention sharing what we are feeling, experiencing and going through with others. Wouldn’t that be a sign of weakness and vulnerability? What would this do to our image? What would others say?
Sharing our emotional pain makes us feel exposed. Yet, if we don’t become vulnerable, transparent and honest ( honest with ourselves first), if we don’t allow ourselves to feel – we will continue to suffer. We will continue to blame others for our suffering.
Brake down the walls of denial! No matter how uncomfortable, no matter how much you would rather rejects it instead! Look into yourself. Look deeply and welcome all of your emotions, they are awaiting for your loving embracement. Feel whatever there is to feel!
We must give up numbness to become aware! Welcome and Embrace your Humanity ! All of it!.
The great paradox is that by becoming vulnerable we gain great strength, we become empowered. This new found sense of acceptance and love can only come from within - your True Self.
Trust and Let Go! Part of you have been waiting do this for a long, long time… and you know it.
You are Love! You are Loved! You are accepted just the way you are - perfect, whole and complete! Allow the Divine to Love you!
Trust and Allow.
In Love and Light,
