People can only meet you as deep as they've met themselves.

You know what's hard to find these days?

People diving intimately into themselves.

Because you know what's so damn tiring about this?

Becoming the lake that everyone dumps their pain and sorrow into.

Why do we think that other people should take on our issues for us?

To be the fire that burns away the trash, we refuse to sort through.

No more, I beg you.

When we decide to show up in our personal truth, we no longer need to toss our problems out on others.

And you know what's so beautiful about each of us showing up in our mess?

We learn & we grow—which enables us to take our lessons and share it with someone that's struggling with a similar problem.

But if we keep pawning off our sadness, anger, anxiety, fear, and depression on others, we'll stay still.

There will be no growth, only more chaos later down the road.

I've played the victim card, as I’m sure you have too. I've been upset at another for an issue that was triggered by something within me. But it wasn't them causing my surreal pain, it never was.

It's only been a piece of my puzzle that's waiting to be loved by me.

We'll never be perfect humans, and I know this. But, we can show up with truth, honesty, good intentions, and compassion with the actions in our life.

Imagine this...

If each of us decided to take on just one piece of our own healing, we could relate more deeply with each other on so many levels.

We would no longer be taking on other people’s pain but instead, opening the doors for them to see the light & the strength that they were born with. 

It's not always easy finding the depth within ourselves. But believe me when I say this,

When you take the dive to understand yourself, you’ll be sure to find the love you always deserved!
