The final thread

I want to leave you with two pieces of advice.

The first piece of advice is don’t wait until you’re ready. You’ll never be ready. It is never a good time. I don’t care how many times you face the demons, the next one is just as scary.

Secondly, go only as fast as you can. This is an evolutionary process, not a revolutionary process. Enjoy the process. Every time you face the truth, it’s another experience of joy. Stop and appreciate it, enjoy it. Every time you heal your fear through love, you feel a little lighter and freer. Stop and enjoy it.

Feel good about the progress you’re making rather than bad about how far you have to go yet. There’s a difference there. It’s kind of like, if you keep doing it daily, tenaciously, lovingly, truthfully, open-heartedly, then it happens. It just does. We can trust it. It’s kind of like when you walk by a mirror and you see yourself, you my see you need a haircut, my hair has really grown. You didn’t notice it, but it was happening all the time. Well occasionally, you walk by a mirror and you look at yourself and say, I really am walking closer to my path. I really am living more to who I thought I was and that is a most glorious feeling! That’s not too big of an adjective to describe it either.

I’m closing this thread with one last simple quote and although it specifically addresses women, I feel it applies to all humanity.  

When a woman tells the truth she is creating the possibility for more truth around her. 

– Adrienne Rich
