We have all used the phrase. We have all felt the disappointment when trying to talk to someone about something they just don’t quite get.
We use a lot of our time, coming up with things that we want to say. We go over the sentences over and over again in our mind making sure that everything is precise and honest.
We live in anxiety until we finally build up the courage to speak to the person.
We say our carefully constructed words with kindness and empathy.
We feel our hearts racing.
Hands and legs shaking.
And the ego is trying to pull you back from speaking your truth.
After it’s done, after the words are spoken, you expect a light bulb go off or you give a sign that your words were heard, your feelings are justified, and your hurt is something that can be healed.
And yet… you get no such sign.
There is not one sign that indicates the person feels remorse, or sorrow, or guilt, or understanding.
There is nothing there to work with.
You end of up feeling defeated and confused. You wonder why you wasted so much of your time and effort into constructing your approach.
You start to question yourself.
STOP RIGHT THERE! DON’T GO ANY FURTHER!
Here is a #truthbomb you need to hear.
Some people will never get it. They will never be on your level. Just because YOUR consciousness has grown, does not mean there’s too has grown or will ever grow.
It’s not your fault.
Your feelings, your emotions, and your truth is justified.
You DID the right thing.
And now is your queue to step back.
Don’t let someone’s lack of consciousness effects yours.
Be the bigger person.
Know your truth.
Speak your truth.
Honour your feelings.
…and come back to inner peace.
Love & Light,
