I’m all about growing and getting better at being human. Let me clarify: not becoming a better human but getting better at being human. Because this shit’s hard. And I think there is an art to it.
I do a lot – I meditate, I’m in therapy, I read spiritual books, I am consciously trying to break patterns and habits that do not serve me or the world. It’s a full time job. And some days I just feel like screaming:
"DAMMIT I AM SO SICK OF GROWING AND CHANGING AND EVOLVING AND EXPANDING AND TRANSFORMING AND TRANSCENDING! CAN’T I JUST STAY STUCK?"
So I let myself be stuck and miserable and feel sorry for myself. And I really let it wash over me. I’m a method actress, you know. I get in to it. I'm that good. And after about a day of honoring how I feel - which is so important - I think:
"Wow. This sucks. This is actually a lot harder than doing it the other way."
So then I go back to growing and changing and evolving and expanding and transforming and transcending. Which actually feels easier on some level. Maybe because the Universe is always growing and changing and evolving and expanding and transforming and transcending. So it must be that when I am, too, I'm in sync. I am aligned. I am honoring my true nature.
We're all prone to bad days. And we're all meant to thrive.
