Why are people afraid to be human? Human beings are emotional beings.
We have hearts but are often so head-strong that sometimes it causes a disconnect with our hearts.
So, what do you do when this happens?
Well, re-connect!
I know what you may be thinking, "if only it were that simple?"
Well, it is!
I am learning how to create a loving time and space to allow myself to feel whatever it is I am feeling.
Sometimes, it is when I am being the biggest nerd. I define nerd to mean a victim, desperate, righteous..etc.
Where I would usually be incredibly hard on myself, I am learning, day by day, to shift to embracing these emotions with grace and acceptance. I've noticed the more I do this, the quicker the painful emotions dissolve. Self-love is born here.
This subject should be taught in schools. Important life-skills for dealing with life's challenges.
With that said, I am practical. Sometimes, the pressures of life weigh so heavy on our minds that it is so easy to lose contact with our hearts.
However, if we can create a safe place for us to deal with our stresses in a healthy way, we would make healthier choices.
If we gave ourselves the permission to be human, greeting ourselves with deserving love and acceptance will allow others to be that way with us.
Humanity is in need of love. Humanity is a collective term for a bunch of individuals. It's starts with us.
I encourage you to not be afraid to be a human-being.
I believe that vulnerability is the greatest form of strength. I know that belief conflicts with the usual paradigm but it works for me.
What do you have to lose?
With love always,
Erika
