We are all travelling along our life's journey. Sometimes the road is pleasant and it is a stroll, and sometimes it feels like a struggle, with rugged landscape, bad weather and your feet are hurting. You may look over at your fellow life travellers, and think that their road looks smooth and easy, but we all have a secret. You also have that secret.
So what is that secret?
The secret is we all fear something within ourselves (i.e. "I'm not good enough", "I'm unlovable", "I'm a failure" and on and on), and then we struggle to manage that fear to make sure no one can see it. And also to hide it from ourselves.
So while we are struggling with that secret, we forget our journey, we forget where we want to go…we get stuck. The struggle has blocked us and before we know it, we are been left behind and time ticks on.
So let's be radical, let's confess our fears and struggles with each other, so they are no longer hidden. Let's shout it out and face this fear, because fear can only survive in the dark, not in the bright light of honesty. Let's take a look at each other as vulnerable human beings all struggling to live life the best we can. Often the things we struggle with and the things that cause us pain tells us a lot about what is important and of value to us. After all if you didn't care, then it wouldn't bother you!
Love and compassion can thrive once we open up and acknowledge each other's fears!
Let us also share and celebrate the things that are important to us, that sometimes get forgotten in the struggle. If you want to share your struggle and fears, use the form below and we will post it on our site.
From your response we can offer you a simple life–matrix (view an example life-matrix here ) where we map out what you are doing that is getting you caught in the struggle and highlight some of the things that are of value to you. This may offer you some clarity and to take you on the first step to help yourself. If you would like this service, please offer a donation based on how much you feel you value this information.
If you donate £85+ we will offer you a full hour session to carry out a detailed guided life-matrix.
