UNIQUE
At times we may think our uniqueness is both a blessing and a curse. We enjoy our individuality, while other times we’ll do anything to fit in. We don’t want to be the odd ball, but we don’t want to be alone, or left out of the excitement life has to offer. How do we find balance?
QUESTIONING OUR BELIEFS
One of the hardest things we can do for our well-being, is to challenge the stories we tell ourselves and the beliefs we hold. This line of questioning is difficult because we build a life based on what we tell ourselves. By choosing to question our version of how we see the world we may shake our very existence to the core, thereby leading to a level of discomfort we would rather avoid.
I BELONG
Each of us have fears, doubts, voices from the past telling us we are unworthy. But if we give these emotions our attention we will convince ourselves we don’t belong. Yet when we begin to live by the truth of who we are, even for just a few fleeting moments, we start the unfolding of a life we once thought was out of reach.
CURIOUS
Being curious is a great way to learn, if we are willing to put in the time to do a little research. Yet when it comes to curiosity about our behavior, it takes courage and honesty.
COURAGE
Yet this journey takes courage because we will be challenged along the way. Those who claim to love us may not understand our new way of life. Our beliefs may not align with those we once called our friends. The temptation to return to old ways of being may be strong, but the love we now feel for ourselves is too great to sacrifice for those who do not recognize the truth of who we are.
