The New
I am not saying that cleaning house is not a lot of work and that it might not take years to go through the process. But do we have really a choice not to do it?
I did not and do not feel I have a choice. I was not able to keep on living a lie. I was not able to keep on living the lives of my parents, what society expects from me, my skin color and my culture for the rest of my life. It was limiting me.
The essence of who we really are has nothing to do with any of this and we limit ourselves by first believing what people with very narrow understanding tell us and then build a life around their insights.
Subconsciously we are aware of that, subconsciously we know that we are so much more then what is left after we apply all these limitations to ourselves. This knowledge creates conflict. This conflict creates self-hatred. We are fully aware that we are only living a small part of our full potential and it upsets us.
Self-awareness is a solid foundation that gives us the strength and self-confidence to built a beautiful life.
