When Truth hurts, please let it liberate you to no longer numb in denial, let it awaken you to the profound suffering you have been causing yourself by not being willing to see the beauty that is within you. There are gifts you posses that have been in denial and need honesty so the world can benefit from you sharing them.
When facing challenges, honesty is a superpower to assist you in building the resilience needed to adapt and move out of comforts that have been predicated on lies.
Honestly is the bedrock to Truth; however, it is something a majority of us know not how to use.
As children, we adapt very well; by learning quickly, that honesty gets us into trouble; it is painful and has us missing out on what we want to do. We also see the adults saying one thing yet doing the opposite with their actions. We learn at an early age to lie to allow our curiosity, feelings and wants to survive, not realizing we are separating from our power.
It is a skill to keep developing and using honesty in a world that is filled with lies. The thing with lying is we end up in a maze of illusions that we are not even sure who it is we are because we have been lead to believe our truth is too ugly to be seen or trusted. Many of us have been boxed into prototypes that would work well in the world.
When people think of honesty, they think I have to tell everyone everything, which is not the case.
Honestly is a tool for you to use with yourself so you can always have acceptance and have the ability to see when you are making errors to call them out of the imprisoned mental lie.
We all have things we are afraid to share with others in fear of being rejected or ridiculed, and this is where honesty allows acceptance to show you love, and that takes great courage to accept those unaccepted parts. One healthy reason Coaches, Therapists, Psychologists, etc. are sought because if the parent or caregiver did not offer a safe space to develop honesty, then they need that reflection to learn how to reuse it.
