Inward

Artist: Unknown

I'm taking a journey inward. 

I invite others that feel welcome to join me, to join me.  However, I am not available to walk with them on theirs. The thing is, you have to be an extremely exceptional human being for people to gift you your unconditional freedom.

Until then, you may be bound to expectations that shackle you to the weight of nothing that I call expectations.

Yet those nothing/expectations are the heaviest weight any of us will ever carry. 

So, the choice is this... Do I work hard to become an exceptional human so I can have others grant me the freedom to live life without being tied to them OR do I accept that I am an exceptional human being, as is, and in this moment and release others from my expectations that they should want to go on MY journey with ME?

Whelp, if you didn't know please know that I've decided on the latter.  

I give the freedom I wish to have.  

I give the love I wish to have. 

I am taking a journey inward, I hope to find rare gems and treasures on my path. I extend the invitation to anyone to join me that would delight in being a part of my story. It may be only for a few sentences, paragraphs,  pages, chapters... Perhaps they will join me to the end. 

I may unknowingly become a part of their story in the same way that they've become a part of mine. 

I'm taking a journey inward... I'm not scared of what I will find. I know that every moment will not be easy but I feel assured that every moment is exactly what I need to experience to be who I was created to be.  I'm excited, enthusiastic, and humbled at the opportunity to fully engage with myself. 

To bring my spirit to life. 

I pray I can teach others how to go inward and turn the light on.  I pray that I make it through with the capabilities to share all that I continue to learn.

I am on an inward journey, I hope to see you along the way.
