OPENNESS
Talking and by that act .....admitting to a problem is the first step to solving it. Because I can't solve a problem I am not willing to face.
I need to reveal the part of me that is broken in order to have it fixed. So I must not hide even a small fault as it prevents me from getting close. Hiding anything that stands between me and my heart causes me pain. Therefore, living openly is always best. When I disclose my weakness I create an intimacy. On the flip side when I conceal something I cause myself immense suffering.
When I am open I cause myself less hurt rather than when I try to protect myself against all possible hurt.
When I am happy ........I am safe ....as the shield that protects me from hurt also diminishes my joy.
I will love when I can face the pain...... and my love will flourish when I can just speak the truth.
The world is about taking in........not shutting out ......so be open to all of you.
I must love myself.......to accept all of me .......as no one is alone who loves himself or herself.
