Own your story.

Owning our story can be hard, but not nearly as difficult as spending out lives running from it.  Embracing out vulnerabilities is risky, but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love.  Brene Brown

Thanks Brene.  What a truth teller you are ;-).

It’s honestly been so much easier for me to blame others for my frustrations with my own life.  I’m good at this, let me tell you.  It has been so difficult to take responsibility for my life choices, but it’s also freeing.  If I made the mess, then I have the power to get up and make changes happen.

One of the hardest things for me lately is to explore the darkness … those sides of myself that I typically keep hidden.  Even harder is for me to risk sharing those vulnerabilities and weaknesses with others.  But perhaps doing this IS the only way we will “discover the infinite power of our own light.”  Mind.  Blown.

Question:   Is there some pain inside of you that needs to be explored?

Food For Thought:  Are you willing to safely explore that to the benefit of discovering “the infinite power” of your light?

Challenge:  What if you were to spend a few minutes writing your thoughts down? No one else has to see it, but maybe it’s a safe and do-able place to start.
