Shame –
One of the biggest obstacles of change is the shame we feel for what we have done, are doing or experienced in our life. Our ego steps in as a “toxic mimic” or “false image” of protection to keep our darkness hidden for fear of judgment, ridicule, and rejection. We try to suppress what causes us pain only to have it show up in different places in our lives.
Because of our “hard-wiring” of the desire to be loved and accepted deep within us we will use 10 X the energy to hide our darkness when actually surrender requires very little energy and will give us relief.
When we come to an understanding our darkness is actually the true vehicle to get us to the light and keep us in the light we are set free to see and experience life through a lens of inspiration.
“We must keep the past experiences of our darkness buoyed on the horizon so that we can face them, accept them and keep an an awareness to stay the path of personal growth. The moment that buoy drops below the horizon we’re doomed”
Dark is the path to the light.
