When you are being true to who you are, you will find yourself being less reactive to the people around you, to the words that are said, and to the events of your life.

Everything you get in your life experiences will be a foundation for everything else. You can't have a high rise with all of the floors that came before. Your building is being built every day, and every day something will be in process and something will be completed, and something will already begin to deteriorate. Just keep listening to that inner guide/feeling and you will build the perfect building for yourself.

When you are true to yourself, you will find yourself more easily able to pursue the things that matter most to you - in spite of seeming adversity.

When something is the right thing for you to do some will call your action 'courage.' There is a good possibility you will likely call it 'being myself.'

What if the following statement is true? The soul desires connection rather than conflict, and yet conflict can become that connection.

Stop kicking yourself. Yes. YOU.
