LETTING GO OF FEAR
"Let go of fear and shout your truth from the rooftops."
It sounds simple enough, but sometimes embracing your truth and being your authentic self is...intimidating. What happens if the person you have become no longer aligns with those you hold close? What happens if you're judged, rejected, or ostracized?
Each of us has a truth; our truth. A belief that we hold to be true in our mind, body, and soul.
I believe in God, the Universe as a magnetic magical realm, angels, the spirit realm, reincarnation, soul contracts, spirit guides and more. I have always been “spiritual”. Coincidences? No such thing. Everything happens for a reason. Even accidents…
Growing up below the Bible Belt, I was raised to not talk about my spirituality with others because I would be judged by those that didn't understand; that were fearful. I grew up Catholic, but always had a deep spiritual side that stayed between family members.
As a child, I remember multiple times being criticized for just being Catholic. In middle school, a boy I considered a friend, singled me out in front of a crowd of my peers and condemned me to Hell for being Catholic. In his mind, Catholics worshipped false idols, amongst plenty of other accusations that were quite hefty for a 12 year old to be throwing. That experience was enough for me to keep tight lipped about my other beliefs for decades.
Humans have a habit of fearing what they don't know, and have historically acted in haste due to those fears. However, how dull is it to only shine half as bright, in fear that your light will be too bright for others?
Whether it be your spirituality, what you want to do in life, be in life, love in life…do it fully and unabashedly. Embrace your authentic self and you will naturally find your soul team waiting to lift you up and love you unconditionally.
Stop holding your authentic self back due to fear.
Shine your light, little one.
