“Today I will be honest even if it’s uncomfortable.”
I’m not quite sure how to feel about today’s lesson. I’m all for honesty. I think it’s something that we all need to hear even if we don’t like it. Denise Shante says it connects us to our “true being”. It opens the door to find out how we feel and what we really need and want. Honesty requires us to actually listen to our true selves despite how uncomfortable it may be. Honesty is what leads us on the path of connection, expression, and acceptance.
I had trouble with the activity of the day however. With a hand on my heart and the other on my belly, I asked myself what would be possible if I told myself the truth. She says, “Imagine who you’d become.” Then she asks about what colors, sounds, feelings, etc., that I experience when I let honesty be the “through-line of my existence”. Denise says that these moments of honesty will bring us closer and closer to who we truly are. And what popped into my head was something more like what if who I really am isn’t who I thought I was and what if what I really want isn’t feasible? What if I’ve been kidding myself. If I’m really honest with myself and it’s not what I’ve been striving for, what do I do?
I guess that will take some more exploration – even if it’s uncomfortable.
I hope you have a quiet, calm evening and that your truth is all you’ve wished for.
