It is completely and utterly safe to be you in every possible way that your minds eye can see for you. All those times that you go off into dreamland of how you wish to look, act, speak, show up, Those moments you see another human who you wish you could bring yourself to be also, Oh the thought and feeling of it all seems great. Yet you find yourself stepping your mind back into where you are now, into this so called reality space and you think to yourself...Nah not me... I can't, I couldn't, There is no way, It's just not me, I don't have it in me. Yet you also feel the strong wish that you could bring yourself to be that...all of that. But then you're tossed into what would Dad think, Mum think, the rest of my family think, my friends... Gosh you even go down the track of caring about what the next door neighbours, Aunties, daughter thinks... Or that person who you look up to and think they too would have something to say about you being true to your being. This alone is all too tiring on the mind, No wonder you can feel pulled in all directions, overwhelmed in where you're at many days. But you're wrong, they're not even thinking most of what you think they are, Or maybe you're not wrong, Maybe you're right, maybe they will think or have a few words to say. But only because they're used to who you are right now, They're so used to you showing up in the way you have always done so. But honestly who cares, What really matters is that this is your path that you get to walk for yourself, It has nothing to do with anyone else, Yet at the same time, it has a lot to do with those around you...because well, the moment you let yourself step into the truth you've been so eager to step into, is the moment you find so much more golden goodness that's been missing from your world. And all those who love you, care for you, will adjust with you...some as you go, others a little longer, some never, And that's all ok too. And guess what, you too adjust along the way and start to care less about those who aren't willing to accept you as you are...it comes with it and you become totally ok with it all. But please know it is, and that you are, safe to show all sides of you. I say this, because for a long time I held myself back from so much, simply because I didn't feel it was safe to be all of me. The thought of what others thought, how they may perceive me, the stories they may create, The thought of possibly loosing people in my world for any changes I wanted to make and continue to want to make, The thought of doing it wrong simply by trying, by exploring and just not wanting to get it wrong at all, The thought of what I'm meant to be, seem to be, meant to act like at each age point. Shit you will get things wrong at times, it's all part in parcel, Try things on for size...see if it fits, It's better to try and get it wrong, than to never give it a crack in the first place right. I now know and believe it is completely safe to be all of me, As it is for you too. Your life's desires won't always match with everyone, and it shouldn't, it's your own ways that feed you, it's what your heart cry's for to be...so go and be... It is safe to be you... All of you! If you're at a point where you don't feel safe to be all of you, Reach out to me for a chat to see what working together one-on-one would look like. Often having someone who understands you, who is there to support you, who is on the court with you can make such a huge difference.
