I’m weary, folx.

There’s a terrified little girl inside of me and she is shaking. I’m speaking to you from the bottom of my heart and I’m trusting you to be gentle and respectful.

Religious indoctrination traumatized this sweet, sensitive child. It terrified her with the lie that what was inside of her was evil. That she was inherently evil. That her salvation laid only in their way.

Their way was an external locus of control. The man knows the truth. The man enforces the truth. You can’t know the truth so you dutifully follow.

You put a man on a pedestal and strive to be pure like him. Shame of your very being is the air you breathe. You will fear what and who they tell you to fear.

We are the chosen and they are the other. Preach the Good Samaritan but sanction a president that separates immigrants families.

Here’s what I have to say to her now: “Inside of you, your very being is a oneness that you will never discover the depth of. Your being IS a love so transcendent that all hate evaporates in its light. The only one who holds the truth of you is you.

This is a great freedom but also a great burden. Most others are looking for their tribe, for the outside to tell them who they are. They want to use violence(in word or deed) to force you to reflect their chosen belief system.

You must see them for what they are and love and fight. Use your gifts to spread the love that shines in all beings. To remind people of all the indescribable goodness often hidden just out of perception.

In any moment you can connect through your center to all consciousness. Now that you know this you will never be the same. You will always have at least one foot in a peace beyond understanding. You are always a breath away from a heart so full of love for all of existence that you are overcome.”

And now I feel calm and ready for the next round. Keep watch for your little parts trying to come up. Love and lead them. Hugs!
