Sharing the Light

There is something very magical about taking our own light into the world and sharing it with others. We're called upon by a force greater than ourselves to expose the bits that we may have been sheltering for a long time, maybe even our whole lives.
There is a lot of talk around the idea that when we share what is most deeply meaningful to us, that we'll experience rejection, unsupported by those who think about us in a certain way. Sharing our hearts with the world is what we must do. But how can we face what seems an unbearable fear of it not being received? Trusting that the most brilliant aspects of ourselves will be safe among those who get it is the risk we have to take. We must be willing to not internalize those responses which might feel unfavorable. It's as if our lives depend on it.
The good news is that, as we mature, and show up in authentic community, we possess far greater levels of ego strength with which to *handle* what the younger self may have deemed unbearable. Fear becomes like a vapor that we can whisk away with a wave of our hand. That way, what is anticipated as unbearable becomes bearable. Everything can become so, with the wisdom we were born with. We must only activate it and step toward our own light.
Love,

Stepping into our light and not listening to those un supporting voices in the room is so important to do. It can be hard, but it propells us further.
