I cannot encourage enough the importance of not allowing others to dictate to yourself how to think, or how to feel. And just as severe- don't handicap yourself by attempting to curb, hide or restrict the thoughts and feelings that flow and occur naturally. Most notably, many try to hide their pain, but pain is something you carry because you feel your deepest strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. At the root of it all, I feel many are afraid of themselves, and of their own reality; their thoughts and their feelings most of all. Many talk about how great love is, but in all honesty love can be painful and some feelings are disturbing. We all experience pain and it's a feeling that wakes us up. Your feelings are a part of you and your personal reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re trading in your reality for a show. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on an act. There can't be any form of positive large-scale revolution until there's a personal revolution, on an individual level. Allow yourself to experience your deepest fear, and it will dissolve until you break free.
