We don’t ask to be put on this ball called Earth, and the rocks life throws on our paths can leave us feeling lost and disconnected. If you are navigating the darkness right now, wondering what it is all for, please know that your story matters. You don’t have to carry the weight alone.
Dear Beautiful Soul,
The sentence “When life feels like something you didn’t ask for” is a thought I can, unfortunately, relate to. We do not ask to be put on this ball called Earth, and the rocks life throws on our paths; you probably did not ask for either.
Life is not a gift.
On this planet for five decades, it took me almost the same amount of time to truly start living my own truth. Contradictory to what I may have written in the past, here at my virtual home, I am no longer convinced that life is a gift. That we should feel grateful to even be here.
We didn’t ask to be brought into this world and the idea that you should thank your caregivers for providing for you, hm. Whether they put you on Earth intentionally, or chose to take you into their home as a child… It is a choice made for you.
Power of choice.
Until you’re eighteen years old, in most countries, you will have to follow the rules in your environment. Parents, caregivers, teachers, sport coaches, religious leaders, lawmakers, etc.
Since we usually don’t get a say in those rules, life could start to feel as something you didn’t ask for. If, on top of that, you were raised in a physical and/or emotionally abusive household; no wonder the question arises “what is it all for?”.
These days, I sometimes still find myself slipping into my former mindset that I have no choice. And yes, there are things in life that we have no control over. So what power of choice do we have when feelings of senselessness and thoughts of not being worthy start to overwhelm us?
To take a very scary step.
Fortunately, I have been able to create a small circle of people who I believe to be trustworthy to share my deeper inner thoughts and emotions with. However, you might not be ready for a one-on-one conversation or even know someone you feel you can trust.
That is why I created an alternative to traditional coaching. You don’t have to feel alone in your struggles, and I do believe we all matter, regardless of your gender, skin color, age, background, or the situation you find yourself in. We all deserve to be seen and validated for the unique soul we are. We all could use a safe space at times to share our shadows and darkness with.
