“Be Vulnerable.”

 

D,

The older you get, the more your instinct is more the shield than the sword. The sword here is the true state of things, the actual and real word of God, the way you really are in the light. Something happens to tell us we should be weary of true feeling, and our many weakened states or admitting how much we do not know. We become stuck in that place. We become scared of our own shadow and the real image it predicts.

 

You must learn to be vulnerable. You must put that guard down. You must learn to cry without shame, to be nonplussed and not hate yourself, to fall and crack but let the light in and to not listen to that other voice that speaks against your inherent value and divine dignity in the face of present reality. You were always made for more. These lessons will not take you. They are made for you. Be open to them. It doesn’t matter if the world will see all that mess. The most important things are way beyond this present world and all of us presently laboring under its one measly sun. Your true self will overcome the sneer. Let that true self show all the way through.
